This Caterpillar CB54 is a drum compactor — sometimes referred to as a roller or vibratory roller — a type of road construction machine used to compact asphalt and soil on paving and grading projects. Caterpillar is one of the world's most widely recognised heavy equipment manufacturers, producing a broad range of construction, mining, and infrastructure machinery sold and supported across the globe.
This 2011 machine is offered in used condition from Texas, USA, and is described by the seller as ready to work. The compactor features 79-inch smooth drums, making it suitable for finish rolling on asphalt surfaces where a uniform, clean pass is required. Swivel operator controls are fitted, allowing the operator to rotate their seat and console to face the direction of travel or the drum being observed, improving visibility and comfort during operation. A water system is also present, which is used to keep the drums wetted and prevent asphalt from sticking to the drum surface during compaction work.
The seller notes that no guarantee is made as to the actual operating hours, and that only what can be visually observed on the hour meter has been reported. Prospective buyers should account for this when evaluating the machine. This unit is priced at $29,500.
