Do You Know? The Difference Between DF and TF Roller Wheels
SHARE
The drum design of SAKAI road roller models SV521DF and SV521TF may look similar, but they differ in padfoot count and dimensions:
– SV521DF (Smooth Drum with Padfoot Shell): Total of 160 padfoots (smaller size), 7.5 cm height.
– SV521TF (Padfoot Drum with Smooth Shell): Total of 140 padfoots (larger size), 10 cm height.
Larger and longer padfoots provide deeper and tighter compaction. Selecting the right drum for site soil conditions maximizes job efficiency.
