SAKAI SW300-I STATIC SMOOTH DRUM ROLLER

Technical Description

The Sakai SW300-I is a compact smooth drum roller designed for efficient asphalt and soil compaction applications. It features a 39-inch wide steel drum with a diameter of approximately 27.6 to 28 inches, offering a vibration frequency of 66.7 Hz (4000 vpm) that ensures optimal compaction impact spacing and superior surface finish through its unique counter-rotating vibration shaft. Powered by a Kubota D1703-M-ET01 water-cooled, 4-cycle, 3-cylinder diesel engine, it delivers a robust 34.1 hp and operates on 12V electrical system, supporting a fuel capacity of 13.3 gallons. The engine’s displacement is about 1.65 liters with a bore of 87 mm and a stroke of 92.4 mm, known for its reliability, longevity, and low noise emissions due to Kubota's E-TVCS indirect injection technology. With an operating weight of approximately 6,063 lbs (2,750 kg) and a maximum speed around 7.5 to 8 mph, the SW300-I offers excellent maneuverability, boasting an inside turning radius of 8.9 inches and a wheelbase of roughly 6.4 feet. Ground clearance sits near 9.85 inches, facilitating work over varied terrains. Safety and operator comfort are enhanced with features like excellent 360-degree visibility, an automobile-style emergency brake system combining hydrostatic and multi-disc brakes, and operator controls allowing vibration on/off management. Maintenance is simplified with easy tool-free removal of water spray nozzles that ensure drum cleanliness during operation. Overall dimensions include an approximate width of 3.9 feet and height to top of cab around 5.75 feet, making the SW300-I well-suited for medium-scale paving and compaction projects requiring a balance of power, precision, and reliability.
