Bomag BW216PD Padfoot Roller

Bomag BW216PD – a real powerhouse of a padfoot vibratory roller that eats through even the toughest soils like it was nothing. Built for the biggest civil projects like road construction, embankments, dam work and the like – the BW216PD is the kind of machine you want at your side when you’re dealing with cohesive and semi-cohesive soils that just wont’ give up their density.

Padfoot drums are the key to this roller’s remarkable performance – they give it a strong kneading action that digs deep into clay, silt and mixed soils, literally squeezing the air out of them and packing them down tight. And with its massive diesel engine and top-notch vibratory system, it’s got the centrifugal force to go with it – meaning you can guarantee a consistant performance even when you’re working with tricky terrain.

The roller is designed to handle itself on uneven ground, what with it’s articulated steering and balanced weight distribution – and any operator will love the sightlines out to the drum from the cab or platform. Low vibration levels mean they can spend hours on end behind the wheel without getting worn down either.

This thing is built tough, with a robust frame and heavy-duty bearings that can take the punishment you put it through. And because maintenance is a breeze with access points that make it easy to get in and out, downtime is minimised and you can get back to the job at hand. The Bomag BW216PD Padfoot Roller is the go-to choice for a lot of contractors and fleets that are working on big earthworks and ground improvement projects
