BEFORE YOU BUY / BUYING GUIDE

To buy a used road roller,
choose the right model and check the vibration system.

The price of a used road roller depends on that machine’s year, operating hours and condition. First select the type and weight for your project, then inspect the vibration system, steel drums and articulation. The reference prices, checklist and FAQs below help you narrow options before requesting a quotation.

The reference price corresponds to a representative model; the original series sheet also lists single-drum and double-drum models. After identifying the specific machine, we provide a written quotation based on its model, year, hours and condition.

What to check when selecting and verifying

  1. Select the type for your project

    For compacting soil, subgrade and subbase, use a single-drum vibratory roller; for asphalt layers, double-drum rollers are common and require a water spray system to prevent sticking; pneumatic-tyred rollers are mainly used for final asphalt rolling and surface sealing. Confirm the intended use, then compare operating weight and drum width.

  2. Vibration system is critical

    Ask the seller for a continuous video showing the vibration on and off and switching between high and low amplitude; watch for abnormal noise, weak vibration or drum bounce. Repairs to vibration bearings and eccentric weights are expensive.

  3. Drums, dampers and articulation

    Check the drum surface for dents, cracks and uneven wear, and verify the scraper is intact; inspect the rubber vibration dampers on both sides of the drum for cracking or hardening; check the clearance at the center hinge and for leaks in the steering cylinders.

  4. Confirm import regulations first

    Some countries have additional requirements for used machinery: Colombia may require a prior import license, and Chile charges a surcharge on used machinery when its import is authorized. Confirm with your customs broker before placing an order.

What to request from the seller

  • Clear photos of the nameplate or serial number and of the engine number
  • Photo of the hourmeter reading and a cold-start video
  • Continuous video showing vibration on and off, and switching between high and low amplitude
  • Driving video showing forward, reverse, steering and braking
  • Close-up photos of the drum surface, scrapers and rubber dampers
  • For double-drum models, video of the water spray system operating; for pneumatic-tyre rollers, photos of the tires

Frequently Asked Questions

What jobs is an 8-ton roller suited for?

8-ton rollers are common for urban streets, parking lots, pavement patching and small to medium sites. For large-area subgrade and earthworks, a heavier single-drum roller is usually chosen; the appropriate weight depends on layer thickness, material and schedule.

Single drum or double drum?

A single-drum roller has a steel drum in front and drive tires at the rear, suited for soil and granular bases; a double-drum roller has steel drums front and rear, produces a smoother finished surface and is commonly used on asphalt. The model on the seller’s spec sheet should match the machine’s nameplate.

What does the reference price include?

The page price is a reference FOB price — delivered at the loading port in China. It does not include sea freight, insurance, destination-country taxes, or inland transport. Not a final quotation: the price of each machine is confirmed by written offer.

Can I see a video before deciding?

Yes. When we identify a specific unit, we will send you photos and a running video of that machine. You can also arrange an on-site or third-party inspection; location, timing and cost to be confirmed.

How is a road roller shipped?

Choose flat rack, ro-ro vessel, or breakbulk based on the machine's dimensions and weight; small models sometimes fit in a container. We confirm the shipping option using the specific machine measurements and the destination port.
