Vibration Roller RD18-100c 

RD18 - Compact, maneuverable and powerful

The RD18 articulated ride-on rollers offer a large drum diameter combined with the low machine center of gravity to ensure excellent compaction quality. The three-point articulated joint offers constant surface contact for better results, safety and a smoother ride. Unilateral drum support allows for up to the edge compaction on both sides.

Features may include:

• Dual drum vibration with high and low settings

• Maneuverable compact roller for superior compaction for a variety of applications

• Tapered design allows for excellent drum visibility

• Three-point articulated pendulum joint ensures uniform weight distribution for excellent compaction results, maneuverability and stability

• Available as a dual drum roller or a combination roller with front drum vibration and rear pneumatic tires

Unilateral drum support

• Excellent compaction performance right up to the edge: With the unilateral drum support, you have curb clearance that allows flush rolling on both sides and you can move the roller directly up to walls or curbs. Re-compaction is not required. Only available for the models RD18-100 and RD18-100C.

Articulated pendulum joint

• Uniform compaction, optimal driving stability: The three-point articulated pendulum joint ensures a uniform weight distribution on the front and rear drum at all times. This also improves the maneuverability and provides for maximum tipping safety and stability when turning curves.

Tandem-axle roller

• Front and rear with vibration drums.

• The vibration drum optimally brings the material to be compacted into oscillation with quick successive vertical forces. The built-in eccentric weight provides for a fast rotation and you get an excellent compaction performance.

• Suitable for: All traditional compaction work

Combination roller

• Vibration drum in the front, tires in the rear.

• Even with the combination rollers, the forces are directed vertically downwards The advantage over tandem-axle rollers are the tires. That is why combination rollers always have very good traction on gradients.

• Suitable for: Compaction work on gradients and in uneven ground conditions

Optimal view

• Everything is perfectly within view: With the specially designed, tapered design of the roller, you always have an excellent view of the drum edges, the machine environment and the job site.

Working area in view

• The tapered design of the rollers gives you a good view of the drum edges or the machine environment.

Excellent compaction performance

• Regardless of which of our rollers you choose – you will be excited about the compaction performance.

Finely tiered selection of models

• Tandem-axle rollers with vibration or oscillation drums as well as combination rollers in various weight classes: At Wacker Neuson, you will find exactly the model that you need for your project.

Excellent driving stability

• Whether on rough terrain or when turning a curve – with the three-point articulated pendulum joint, you are always safely on the move.
