Compactor Buying Guide

Compactors are a helpful asset for those needing to compact material to make a smooth road surface. Use the following tips to find the right model for your needs. If you have questions or want to shop compactors for sale, contact King Machinery. Our dealership is based in Statesville, North Carolina.

Consider The Material Being Compacted

Start by thinking about the material that the compactor will be handling. For example, gravel and sand pair best with a smooth-drum vibratory roller while silt and clay will require a sheepsfoot or padfoot roller.

Consider The Ideal Size Of The Compactor

Compactors come in a wide range of sizes. The drum widths can vary from 28 inches to 91 inches. Most customers pick something around 47 inches wide, which is usually able to handle small and large jobs.

Think about what size best suits the size of the work area and the material being compacted. You may not need the largest size that you can afford. A smaller drum can be a better fit for the given project if it's better suited for reducing overlap and compacting the material in the fewest passes.

Consider The Operating Weight

The operating weight influences how firmly the material is compacted. It's important to avoid having too heavy of an operating weight because it can cause over-compaction of the material.
