2025 Sakai 84" (12 ton) SV544TF Smooth Shell Roller

2025 Sakai 84" (12 ton) SV544TF Smooth Shell Roller

Experience unmatched job site versatility with the SV544TF 84-inch padfoot vibratory soil compactor, featuring an innovative 2-piece smooth shell kit that is bolted through to prevent shifting. This powerful roller, weighing just over 15 tons, uniquely adapts to diverse material needs: it efficiently compacts cohesive and semi-cohesive soils as a padfoot, and quickly transforms to handle granular materials and base courses with the industry’s easiest and quickest to install smooth shells. This adaptability makes it ideal for demanding projects like highway and airport subgrades, large embankments, and commercial industrial tracts. Driven by a proven 130 HP Cummins diesel engine, the SV544TF ensures sustained power. Its standard, user-selectable traction control system provides confident operation on slopes up to approximately 32.2 degrees (63% grade), proving invaluable for challenging inclines and tough terrains. The SV544TF embodies SAKAI’s unwavering commitment to dependability, durability, and ease-of-use. Operators will benefit from the familiar control layout, featuring physical switches and knobs for precise command and an easy learning curve, avoiding complex failure-prone touchscreens. Engineered with a heavy-duty center hitch and long-lasting drum isolators, this SAKAI compactor is built for maximum uptime and reduced maintenance downtime, especially with its efficient shell conversion. Choose the SV544TF for a powerful, adaptable, and consistently productive solution, streamlining your most demanding multi-material compaction needs.
