2025 Sakai 84" (12 ton) SV544D Smooth Drum Soil Roller

The SV544D is an 84-inch single drum vibratory compactor meticulously crafted for medium to high volume soil compaction. With its smooth drum, this machine excels across a broad spectrum of materials, efficiently compacting both cohesive soils (such as clay and silt) and granular fills (including sand, gravel, and crushed rock). It’s a prime choice for large-scale infrastructure, expertly tackling projects like highway and airport subgrades, expansive embankments, and major commercial developments. Driven by a reliable 130 HP Cummins diesel engine with selectable Eco Mode, the SV544D delivers both hard-hitting force and fuel efficiency. Confidently navigate challenging terrain with its standard, user-selectable traction control, ensuring superior performance on slopes climbing up to 32.2 degrees (63% grade). Operator experience is paramount with the SV544D, offering intuitive command through its tactile physical switches and knobs, which significantly simplify operation and reduce the learning curve for new operators – a clear advantage over complex touchscreens. This SAKAI compactor truly upholds the brand’s long-standing reputation for unwavering dependability and enduring durability. Featuring a heavy-duty center hitch and long-life drum isolators, the SV544D minimizes downtime and lowers maintenance demands. For a reliable, and consistently hard-hitting compaction solution on diverse soil preparation tasks, the SV544D stands ready.
