Walk Behind Roller Rentals In North Carolina

When you're working on a project that requires precise compaction levels, renting a walk-behind roller may be your best option. Walk-behind rollers, also called trench rollers, are ideal for narrow spaces that need compaction prep work, like pavements, shoulders and walkways. Because many of these jobs are specialized, your usage levels may not warrant an outright purchase, making renting the most practical choice.

Trench Roller Rentals in North Carolina

GP Rental — The Cat^® Rental Store offers the BOMAG BMP8500 trench compactor. Compared to most conventional walk-behind rollers, this model provides safer operation and higher-quality results. The BMP8500 contains a control system that ensures efficient energy transfer while indicating the soil's relative compaction level.

Additional features include:

• The engine control module with diagnostic LEDs monitors critical functions like oil pressure, engine temperature, radiator level, glow plug, air filter and battery capacity.
• The control panel indicates when the machine achieves maximum compaction.
• The articulated joint enhances maneuverability around curved obstacles without affecting the compacted ground.
• The self-lubricating design of the exciter and drive make the lower end of the machine entirely maintenance-free.

Walk-Behind Roller Applications and Benefits

Using a trench roller for compaction has many benefits over a rammer or a ride-on roller, particularly in tightly spaced areas and locations that require precise work. Common applications include:

• Trenches.
• Driveways.
• Shoulders.
• Sidewalks and paths.
• Patching.
• Backfills.

Some of the most significant advantages of using a walk-behind roller include:

• Superior compaction: Walk-behind machines with two rollers like the RTX-SC3 are more efficient because the front roller preps the ground while the rear roller completes the compaction in one pass.
• Enhanced safety: These trench rollers have multiple safety features, including automatic shutdown and a remote that allows the operator to control the machine outside the work area for additional security.
• Increased versatility: With the ability to incorporate various drum sizes, walk-behind rentals can accommodate rollers as small as 24 inches.
