Multiquip V305EK Single Drum Roller – Compact, Powerful, and Built for Precision
The Multiquip V305EK single drum roller is engineered for high-performance patching and compacting in tight, confined spaces where large machines can’t go. Designed for one-person operation, this walk-behind roller compactor delivers the same professional results as larger equipment while offering the versatility and portability essential for road crews, utility contractors, and municipalities.
Whether you’re restoring a pothole, compacting a trench, or sealing a patch of new blacktop, this compact single drum roller gets the job done quickly, cleanly, and efficiently.
Reliable Power and Consistent Performance
Powered by a dependable 14 hp Kohler CH440 engine, the V305EK features a maintenance-free vibratory system that delivers up to 3,800 pounds of centrifugal force at 4,200 vibrations per minute. This makes it ideal for both soil and asphalt roller applications. A smooth hydrostatic drive system allows precise forward and reverse travel at variable speeds, ensuring optimal compaction results on every pass.
The unit’s 29-inch beveled steel drum provides a clean finish without gouging edges, perfect for patching work and touch-up applications where aesthetics matter just as much as density.
Ergonomic Design and Operator Comfort
Designed with the operator in mind, the V305EK features an adjustable, low-vibration handle with multiple height positions for optimal comfort. A multi-function control lever puts travel, vibration, water control, and emergency stop all within easy reach, enabling intuitive operation and full control in any environment. These ergonomic features reduce fatigue and increase productivity—ideal for long shifts on hot asphalt or dense soil.
Smart Water System for Asphalt Applications
To support blacktop roller use, the V305EK is equipped with a 7-gallon rust-proof water tank and adjustable spray system. This prevents material pickup and ensures clean, professional finishes when working with tack-coated surfaces or fresh mix, making it an outstanding tool for light asphalt roller applications.
Compact and Versatile
At just 1,168 pounds, the single drum roller is easy to transport with a trailer or pickup truck. It’s ideal for jobs like:
- Utility cut repairs
- Residential and commercial patching
- Narrow pathway and driveway compaction
- Sidewalk and trench base prep
Its compact footprint and maneuverability make it a go-to solution where larger roller compactors can’t fit.
