Technical Description

The Sakai TW230 Static Smooth Drum Roller is a compact and durable compaction machine designed for smooth surface finishing. It features a 35.5-inch wide drum with a diameter of 22.1 inches, delivering a centrifugal force of 1850 lbs at a vibration frequency of 52.5 vpm, optimizing static compaction efficiency. Powered by a 13.9 hp (10 kW) 3TNE-68 engine with a displacement of 47.9 cu in, the roller operates at 2400 rpm, ensuring consistent power output. Its fuel capacity is 4 gallons, and the hydraulic system fluid capacity is 10.6 gallons, supporting sustained operation. The TW230 has a maximum speed of 3.2 mph, suitable for precise compaction work. With a ground clearance of 9.1 inches and overall compact dimensions—6.6 ft length, 3.4 ft width, and 4.9 ft height to the top of the cab—it provides excellent maneuverability on job sites. The weight of 2888.1 lbs offers sufficient mass for effective compaction while maintaining operability in confined areas. Tires are sized at 23/8.5-12-4PR(OR), supporting stability and traction. Operating on a 12-volt system, the roller balances power with efficient control and reliability. This model is ideal for small to medium-scale asphalt and soil compaction tasks, delivering smooth, dense surfaces with its static drum technology. Its specification blend makes it effective in road repair, driveway, and foundation compaction applications requiring precision and dependable performance.
