Bobcat 72" Padded Vibratory Roller | Hydraulic Sheep's Foot Compactor | Skid Steer

72" Bobcat Padded Vibratory Roller

Drum Type: Padded (Sheep's Foot) | Width: 72" | Dynamic Force: ~9,900+ lbs

Professional Overview

The Bobcat 72" Padded Roller is built for site preparation where a smooth drum simply won't cut it. The 102 heavy-duty pads penetrate deep into the soil layers, providing a kneading action that eliminates air pockets from the bottom up. Its offset drum design allows the roller to extend past the right side of the loader, making it possible to compact directly against sidewalks, walls, and curbs without compromising the loader's safety.

Dealer Highlights

• Bi-Directional Compaction: The dual-direction hydraulic motor allows for consistent vibration while traveling in both forward and reverse, doubling your efficiency.
• Operator Comfort: Integrated rubber isolation mounts significantly reduce the transfer of vibration to the loader and the operator, preventing fatigue during long shifts.
• Low Maintenance Design: Outfitted with oil-bath bearings to eliminate the need for daily greasing and protected hose routing to keep couplers clean and snag-free.
• Terrain Adaptability: The free-drum oscillation ensures the roller follows the contours of the ground, providing uniform compaction even on slopes or rutted sites.
• Built-in Scrapers: Heavy-duty scrapers keep the drum clear of mud and clay buildup, ensuring the pads maintain maximum pressure and penetration.
