Vibratory Pod Design

Caterpillar exclusive vibratory pod design delivers desired balance between frequency and amplitude to provide a superior matte finish.

Read More
Higher Compaction Forces

High compaction forces result in fewer passes for greater productivity.

Read More
Replaceable Rubber Mounts

Replaceable rubber mounts isolate vibration and enhance vibratory capabilities.

Read More
High Strength Steel Drums

Durable high-strength steel drums are roll formed and finish welded for a smoother surface and longer life.

Read More
Pivoting Interface

Pivoting interface allows the drum to oscillate +/-15 degrees and follow the contour of the ground.
