MAULDIN 1450S STATIC SMOOTH DRUM ROLLER

Technical Description

The Mauldin 1450S Static Smooth Drum Roller is a compact and efficient compaction machine designed for smooth surface applications. It features tandem smooth steel drums, each with a diameter of 1.7 feet, providing consistent static compaction. The unit measures 3.2 feet in width, stands 5 feet tall, and has a 4.8-foot wheelbase, offering excellent maneuverability in tight job sites. With an overall length of just 7 inches beyond the drums, its compact dimensions make it suitable for various construction and paving tasks. Powered by an 18 hp (13 kW) engine, the roller delivers reliable performance while maintaining fuel efficiency, supported by a 5-gallon fuel capacity. The hydraulic system has an 8-gallon fluid capacity to ensure smooth operation of drive and steering systems. It achieves a maximum speed of 6 mph (10 kph), balancing productivity with control. The machine includes a 42-gallon spray water system to keep the drums wet, reducing asphalt sticking during compaction. Its operating weight is 2,475 lbs, offering sufficient ground contact pressure for effective soil or asphalt compaction without excessive ground disturbance. Ground clearance is 0.8 feet, allowing operation on uneven surfaces. Overall, the Mauldin 1450S combines a compact footprint, moderate weight, and stable drum sizes with an economical engine and water spray for efficient static rolling in construction or roadwork environments where precision and ease of operation are essential.
