WACKER NEUSON RD 12-90 STATIC SMOOTH DRUM ROLLER

Technical Description

The Wacker Neuson RD 12-90 is a high-performance, smooth drum tandem roller designed for efficient compaction on granular base surfaces and asphalt finish layers. It features a 35.4-inch wide drum with a vibration frequency of 3900 vibrations per minute (vpm) and a frequency of 65 vpm, delivering a dynamic linear force of 96 lb/in (16.8 N/mm) for superior compaction. The machine has an operating width of 40.8 inches and an overall width of 3 feet, providing excellent maneuverability with optimized curb and side clearances (15.7 in right, 8.2 in left). Powered by a reliable Wacker Neuson gasoline engine, it offers a fuel consumption rate of approximately 1.6 gallons per hour and a fuel tank capacity of 34.6 gallons, along with a 6.3-gallon water tank for drum wetting to prevent asphalt sticking. Weighing around 1,400 lbs dry and 2,689 lbs with ballast, the RD 12-90 balances compactness and compaction power with an overall size of roughly 79.8 x 42.6 x 58 inches. Its design includes dual drum drive and articulated steering, allowing precise control and efficient compaction at higher speeds without sacrificing quality. The ergonomic operator platform, fully integrated controls, and easy service access optimize operator comfort and machine maintenance. Suitable for road repairs, driveways, parking lots, and small to medium asphalt and granular base projects, the RD 12-90 delivers consistent performance with low noise levels and high jobsite efficiency.
