This Caterpillar CB-224C is a used drum compactor — sometimes referred to as a vibratory roller — currently located in Mexico and available for $11,750. Drum compactors of this type are used in road construction and site preparation to compress asphalt, gravel, and soil into a dense, stable surface. Caterpillar is one of the world's most recognised manufacturers of heavy construction and earthmoving equipment, serving industries that include road building, mining, and infrastructure development.
The machine is powered by a Hatz 2M40L engine producing 33 horsepower, a compact and reliable diesel unit well suited to this class of compactor. Operating weight is 5,335 pounds, which gives the machine a firm contact load for effective ground compaction. The centrifugal compaction force is rated at 6,570 pounds, indicating solid compaction capability for road base and surface work. The drum delivers 3,600 vibrations per minute, a frequency that promotes thorough material densification across each pass.
