R172 - CATERPILLAR CP76B ROLLER

Description

Padfoot drums are ideal for compacting cohesive and semi-cohesive materials and can be equipped with either Cat exclusive oval pads or conventional square pads. The oval faced design provides deeper lift penetration, contributing to better overall compaction in cohesive soils than other pad designs. The square faced design provides optimal performance on semi-cohesive soils. It has a higher surface area, which allows it to create a good surface seal; but the larger face area does not allow deep lift penetration.
