SAKAI SW500-1E STATIC SMOOTH DRUM ROLLER

Technical Description

The Sakai SW500-1E is a vibratory smooth drum roller designed for efficient compaction tasks. It features a single smooth steel drum measuring 51.2 inches wide and 31.5 inches in diameter, producing a medium centrifugal force of 6,519.5 lbs with a vibration frequency of 52 vibrations per minute, ensuring effective soil and asphalt compaction. Powered by an Isuzu 4LE1 diesel engine, it delivers a gross power output of 38.9 hp at 2,300 rpm, balancing performance and fuel efficiency. The roller operates at a maximum speed of 7 mph (11 kph), suitable for precise compaction control on various surfaces. It has an operating weight of approximately 8,818 lbs, providing sufficient mass for effective compactive effort. Key dimensions include a wheelbase of 7.6 ft, overall length of about 10.2 ft, ground clearance of 11.1 inches, and a cab height of 5.6 ft. The fuel tank can hold 13.8 gallons, while the hydraulic system fluid capacity is 15.9 gallons, supporting extended operation and hydraulic functions. This machine is ideal for construction projects requiring reliable soil and asphalt compaction with ergonomic operator controls and strong compaction capability provided by its vibratory drum system. Its robust diesel engine and well-balanced design make it suitable for medium-scale compaction jobs with an emphasis on durability and productivity.
