CATERPILLAR CB535B STATIC SMOOTH DRUM ROLLER

Technical Description

The Caterpillar CB535B is a robust static smooth drum roller designed for effective soil compaction in road construction and similar applications. It features a **51.2-inch diameter by 67-inch wide front drum** with a high centrifugal force of **26,550 lbs**, operating at a vibration frequency of **42 vibrations per minute (vpm)**, which ensures efficient vibration-assisted compaction. Powered by a **Caterpillar 3054 DIT engine**, a 4-cylinder, 244.1 cubic inch (4.4 L) displacement diesel engine delivering **107 hp at 2200 rpm**, it combines power with reliability. The engine is turbocharged and direct-injected, known for low maintenance and strong performance in heavy-duty industrial applications. The machine’s operating weight is approximately **29,547 lbs**, providing substantial ground force for deep compaction. It measures about **17.4 feet in length**, **6.3 feet in width**, and stands **9.9 feet tall to the top of the cab**, with a wheelbase of **11.6 feet**. It has a fuel tank capacity of **55 gallons** and a hydraulic system fluid capacity of **14.6 gallons**. The CB535B can achieve a maximum travel speed of **7.9 mph (11 kph)**, making it suitable for efficient site mobility. It rides on **15.00R tires** for stability and traction. This combination of powerful engine, substantial weight, and vibration capability makes the CB535B highly effective for compacting soils, granular materials, and asphalt, especially in large-scale construction environments.
