The Case W252 Drum Compactor is a used drum compactor — sometimes called a road roller — a type of compaction equipment used in road construction and civil engineering to compress asphalt, aggregate, and soil surfaces. Case is a long-established manufacturer of construction and earthmoving machinery with a broad presence in the heavy equipment industry worldwide.
This machine is configured as a double-drum unit, meaning both the front and rear axles carry steel drums that apply compactive force directly to the surface, making it well suited to asphalt paving and finish-grading work. Each drum measures 40 inches in width. The compactor has an operating weight of approximately 3 tons, placing it in the light-to-mid range for double-drum rollers — a class often favored for urban roadwork, parking lots, and smaller paving projects where maneuverability matters.
Power is provided by a Deutz diesel engine. Deutz is a well-known manufacturer of air-cooled and diesel engines commonly found in construction equipment of this era. No ROPS (Roll-Over Protective Structure) is fitted to this machine, which buyers should note from both a safety compliance and site-requirement standpoint before putting it to work.
This is a 1990 machine offered in used condition, located in Michigan, USA, and priced at $6,200.
