Heightened Safety with Offset Vibratory Roller Attachment

Road Widener LLC offers the Offset Vibratory Roller attachment. Its offset, patented design allows the host machine to drive safely on flat ground while compacting sloping shoulders, ditches, trenches and other hard-to-reach areas alongside the road.

The Offset Vibratory Roller attaches to most loaders, graders, compact track loaders and skid steers, operating off the host machine’s engine and hydraulics. Utilizing the host machine for power reduces maintenance by 90% over self-propelled rollers while also offering the versatility of three interchangeable drums sizes and up to 30° pivot angles.

An adapter plate is also available for host machines like compact backhoes and telescopic loaders that may not be readily setup to accept standard attachments. The Offset Vibratory Roller is compatible with standard and high flow hydraulics.

“Crewmember safety is the highest priority on any jobsite,” said Lynn Marsh, Road Widener, LLC president. “With traditional compaction machines, every degree of slope is felt by operators as they navigate through uneven terrain, resulting in an increased risk of tipping. The Offset Vibratory Roller combats that by providing a viable alternative that allows contractors to quickly and efficiently get the job done without risking an accident. It’s a game changer.”

The Offset Vibratory Roller has a total reach of 2.74 m and can be purchased with a 61-, 91- or 122 cm-wide drum. The drums can pivot up to 30°, reach up to 76 cm below the mounting point, and are interchangeable.

“We manufactured the Offset Vibratory Roller to fit onto the equipment contractors already have and are familiar with,” added Ms. Marsh. “The design allows for simplified maintenance, easy transport and offers an unmatched ROI.”
