Description

Multiquip Tandem Rollers – Compact Compaction with Pro-Level Precision

Multiquip’s tandem roller series is built for contractors who demand high performance and control in tight, urban, or patching environments. Designed to combine maneuverability with compaction force, these walk-behind rollers are ideal for small-scale paving, repair work, and surface prep. Whether you’re working on driveways, sidewalks, parking lots, or utility cuts, Multiquip’s tandem roller models deliver the strength and consistency of larger machines in a compact, easy-to-handle format.

Efficient Compaction in Tight Spaces

Multiquip offers powerful models like the MRH601DS and MRH800GS, both equipped with a hydrostatic drive system for smooth, reliable operation. The dual-drum design ensures uniform compaction across the full working width, making these machines perfect for applications that require a precise, even finish. With travel speeds up to 2 mph and drum widths just over 25 inches, they’re ideal for navigating around curbs, narrow paths, and hard-to-reach corners.

Whether you’re laying fresh mix or prepping a base, the tandem roller gives you full control and consistent results. It performs exceptionally well as an asphalt roller, especially for repair jobs and tight job-site conditions where larger machines can’t go.

Key Features and Benefits

✔️ Hydrostatic Forward and Reverse Travel
Infinitely variable speeds give operators control in every direction, allowing precise positioning and smooth starts and stops.

✔️ High-Performance Vibration System
Delivering powerful centrifugal force, each walk behind compactor ensures effective compaction on both soil and asphalt surfaces.

✔️ Rust-Free Water Tank with Dual Spray Bars
Integrated water systems help prevent material buildup on the drums, a must for any blacktop roller working on hot mix.

✔️ Operator-Focused Design
From the foldable handle to vibration-isolating mounts and dead-man controls, Multiquip emphasizes comfort, safety, and intuitive handling.

Versatile Applications

Multiquip tandem rollers are ideal for a wide range of tasks:

  • Patching and pothole repairs
  • Small asphalt overlays
  • Granular base and soil compaction
  • Driveway and sidewalk installation

These machines also excel as asphalt rollers in areas with limited space, providing smooth, tight compaction in just a few passes.
