Single Drum Roller
Compact Power for Precision Compaction
The Multiquip V305EK single drum roller delivers professional-grade compaction in places where larger machines can’t fit. Designed for utility crews, municipalities, and contractors, it combines portability with powerful performance. Whether patching potholes, sealing asphalt edges, or preparing trench bases, this single drum roller provides consistent density and a clean finish in a compact, easy-to-handle package.
Reliable Power and Smooth Operation
At the heart of the V305EK is a dependable 14 hp Kohler CH440 engine paired with a maintenance-free vibratory system. Generating up to 3,800 pounds of centrifugal force at 4,200 vibrations per minute, this machine adapts easily to both soil and asphalt roller applications. The hydrostatic drive ensures precise forward and reverse travel with variable speeds, giving operators total control. A beveled 29-inch steel drum minimizes edge gouging, producing smooth, professional results with every pass.
Key Features That Stand Out
- High-Impact Compaction – Up to 3,800 lb. of centrifugal force for soil and asphalt.
- Hydrostatic Drive – Variable forward and reverse speeds for accurate control.
- Beveled-Edge Drum – Cleaner finishes without damaging patch edges.
- Operator-Friendly Design – Intuitive controls, vibration isolation, and adjustable handle height.
- Water System for Asphalt – Rust-proof 7-gallon tank with spray system to prevent material pickup.
Operator Comfort and Efficiency
This single drum roller is designed with ergonomics in mind. A low-vibration handle with multiple height adjustments reduces fatigue, while a multi-function lever keeps travel, vibration, water flow, and emergency stop controls at your fingertips. These details increase productivity and allow crews to stay efficient during long shifts, whether operating on soil, asphalt, or mixed surfaces.
Versatility for Multiple Applications
Lightweight and compact at just over 1,100 pounds, the V305EK can be transported in a trailer or pickup truck. It works exceptionally well for:
- Utility cut repairs and patching projects
- Residential driveways and narrow pathways
- Sidewalk base and trench backfill compaction
- Touch-up asphalt work where a full-size blacktop roller is impractical
By combining portability with reliable impact, this machine fills the gap between larger rollers and manual tampers. Crews appreciate it as both a nimble roller compactor and a versatile blacktop roller solution.
Why Choose the V305EK Single Drum Roller?
Contractors trust this single drum roller because it delivers high force in a compact footprint while staying easy to operate and maintain. From patching fresh asphalt to compacting dense soil, it consistently produces professional-grade results. Its combination of power, portability, and operator-focused features makes it one of the most versatile roller compactor models available today.
Smarter Compaction in a Compact Machine
When projects require strong compaction in confined spaces, the Multiquip V305EK single drum roller is the tool of choice. Durable, transportable, and built for precision, it gives professionals a dependable solution that balances mobility with performance.
