What is the difference between a single and double drum roller?
A single drum roller has one drum at the front and rear tires at the back, making it ideal for soil and base compaction. A double drum roller has drums at both ends, providing even pressure across the surface—perfect for asphalt work.
Which type of roller is best for asphalt?
Tandem (double drum) rollers are ideal for asphalt due to their ability to apply consistent pressure across both drums, resulting in a smooth, level finish.
Can I use JCB rollers for both soil and asphalt?
Yes. JCB tandem rollers are great for asphalt and aggregates, while the single drum VM118D model is designed for high-performance soil compaction.
Do JCB rollers meet emissions regulations?
Yes. All current JCB rollers are Stage V compliant, offering reduced emissions and excellent fuel efficiency. The VM118D model even meets standards without DEF or SCR systems.
How wide are JCB tandem roller drums?
JCB tandem roller drums range from 800 mm to 1,400 mm, allowing for effective compaction across various job site sizes and requirements.
Are JCB rollers easy to operate?
Yes. With intuitive controls, ergonomic seating, and features like automatic vibration management, JCB rollers are designed for user-friendly operation - even for beginners.
