This 2018 Volvo SD75B is a padfoot compactor — sometimes referred to as a sheep's foot roller — a specialist piece of road construction and earthworks equipment designed to compact cohesive soils, clays, and mixed fills through the penetrating action of its padded drum. Volvo is a globally recognised manufacturer of heavy construction and road-building machinery, serving contractors, civil engineers, and infrastructure developers across a wide range of applications.
The machine is configured as a single-drum unit, with the padfoot drum positioned at the front. It is equipped with an orbital steering system, which is a standard and reliable arrangement on this class of compactor, providing responsive directional control. A traction motor drives the machine, and FSR control is included as part of the compaction management system.
On the mechanical and structural side, the listing notes the inclusion of a wheel installation on the tractor unit along with a wheel rim assembly. A material scraper is fitted to the padfoot drum, which serves to clear soil and debris from between the pads during operation and maintain consistent compaction performance. A fire extinguisher mounting plate is also present. The machine carries a number tag with serial designation SD SHP.
This used SD75B is located in South Dakota, USA, and is offered at $75,000.
