The CAT CS12 is a versatile padfoot soil compactor that’s built for efficient compaction of all sorts of tricky soils on roadworks, site prep, and general civil projects. With a nice balance of power and reliability, it’s perfect for medium-scaled earthworks where consistency is key.
Powered by a solid Caterpillar diesel engine, this thing gives you smooth, dependable vibrations with plenty of compactive force to handle clay, silt, and mixed soils. And with its padfoot drum, you get effective kneading action that penetrates deep into the soil – helping get rid of air voids and boost load-bearing capacity.
Articulated steering gives you great handling on tight sites and uneven ground, while stable weight distribution keeps you stable and in control. Plus, the operator environment is designed for long shifts – with clear views to the drum surface, intuitive controls, and a practical layout that makes getting the job done a breeze.
CAT built this thing to last, with a robust frame, heavy-duty driveline components, and easy access to the service points. That means you can count on it to keep working for a long time, and get back on the job fast when you need to. All in all, the CAT CS12 Padfoot Roller is a solid choice for contractors and hire fleets looking for dependable soil compaction performance.
