8 Ton Padfoot Roller

The 8 Ton Padfoot Roller is a heavy-duty compaction machine designed for compacting clay, cohesive soils, subgrade, and earthworks on civil construction, roading, subdivision, and infrastructure projects. Built for demanding site conditions, this padfoot roller delivers powerful vibration and excellent ground penetration to achieve high-density compaction efficiently and reliably.

Featuring a vibrating padfoot drum, hydrostatic drive, articulated steering, and operator-friendly controls, the 8 ton roller is ideal for large-scale earthmoving and site preparation applications. The padfoot drum design provides superior kneading action for compacting wet or cohesive materials where smooth drum rollers are less effective.

Perfect for civil contractors, drainage crews, earthworks contractors, road builders, and construction companies throughout Auckland and New Zealand.

Delivery available Auckland wide.
