Meet the Multiquip AR14H Tandem Roller
The AR14H tandem roller is Multiquip’s one-ton powerhouse, engineered to deliver dense, uniform mats on both asphalt and granular soils. Compact enough for municipal patch crews yet rugged enough for daily paving, this dual-drum ride on roller combines a quiet Honda GX630 engine with advanced vibration technology to give contractors the professional results they need in tight, urban work zones.
Engineered Performance You Can Feel
A 20 hp class Honda GX630 provides reliable, low-noise power, driving a vibratory system that produces exceptional compaction energy for a machine of this size. Operators can activate drum vibration and water flow from an intuitive dashboard, ensuring full control of the roller compactor without shifting focus from the job at hand. The result is smoother passes, fewer lifts, and faster production—critical advantages when the AR14H tandem roller is working as an asphalt roller on hot mix that can cool quickly.
Compact Design, Big Productivity
Tight jobsites call for tight turning radii, and this ride on roller answers with articulated steering and minimal frame overhang that clear 19-inch curbs while keeping only 1¼ inches between drum edge and wall. Recessed drive motors protect key components when rolling near obstacles, while the elevated operator platform offers an unobstructed sight line to both drum edges for precise steering. These design choices make the AR14H tandem roller equally comfortable finishing a residential driveway or sealing a trench patch in a busy intersection.
Durability That Cuts Downtime
Multiquip built the frame from heavy-gauge steel and added high-strength composite fenders to shrug off everyday abrasions. A maintenance-free articulation joint and sealed vibratory assembly remove daily greasing from the checklist, and wide-swing hoods place filters, drains, and hydraulic components within easy reach. For extended shifts, the corrosion-proof 35-gallon water tank feeds a pressurized spray system that keeps drums clean during continuous asphalt roller work.
Operator-Focused Comfort
From the slide-style throttle to the waterproof ignition switch, every control on the AR14H tandem roller is placed for quick, instinctive use. Rubber-isolated platforms and ergonomically positioned levers reduce vibration transfer, so crews stay productive through long paving cycles. Conveniences like a 12-volt power outlet and cup holder add practical comfort touches that set this roller compactor apart in the one-ton class.
Where the AR14H Shines
- Patching & Utility Cuts – Rapid travel and dual drums let a single ride on roller achieve spec density before traffic returns.
- Driveways & Small Lots – Narrow width and tight steering provide flawless coverage without scuffing edges.
- Granular Base Prep – High centrifugal force locks aggregate before paving, turning the AR14H tandem roller into a versatile soil finisher.
Why Add the AR14H to Your Fleet?
Contractors choose this roller compactor for its blend of power, reliability, and operator comfort, while municipalities value its quiet operation and low maintenance demands. Above all, the AR14H tandem roller delivers pro-grade results in places larger machines simply can’t fit, making it the smart, cost-effective asphalt roller solution for today’s fast-paced jobsites.
