SSR120C-10 Single Drum Roller with Pad Foot from SANY, (SSR120C-10)

The SANY SSR120C-10 12 tonne padfoot roller is a brand-new single drum compactor powered by a 125hp Cummins engine, with 10% more excitation force than comparable machines in its class and up to 16.7% greater production. It is part of UHI’s end-of-year warehouse clearance, now $99,000 inc GST – down from $145,000 – and only the last units remain.

Key Features of the SANY 12 Tonne Padfoot Roller

• 12 tonne class with 125hp Cummins engine – a well-known engine brand with strong power for its size.
• Higher compaction output – 10% greater excitation force than other products in the same category, giving up to 16.7% more production.
• Long-life vibratory bearings – water wheel type lubrication extends bearing life up to 5,000 hours.
• Double-filtered engine air – a raised air filter intake and two-stage air filtration protect the engine on dusty sites.
• Three-stage hydraulic filtration – cleaner oil for a longer hydraulic system life.
• Comfortable cab – mounted on vibration damping mounts, with cab temperature control and reduced operator control forces.
• Built-in safety – rounded bumpers front and rear, plus large rear glass and a sloped hood for better visibility.

What Is a 12 Tonne Padfoot Roller Used For?

A padfoot roller, also called a sheepsfoot roller, has rows of raised pads around its steel drum. Instead of pressing material flat from the top, the pads push down into the soil and knead it, driving out air and moisture pockets from the bottom of each layer upward.

That makes this type of drum the right tool for cohesive and semi-cohesive soils such as clay, silt and mixed fill. A smooth drum tends to bridge over these materials and leave soft layers underneath, while the pad foot design compacts through the full lift.

At 12 tonnes, the SSR120C-10 hits a sweet spot: heavy enough for serious civil work, yet easier to float between sites than larger 15–20 tonne machines. Typical jobs include:

• Road and highway subgrade preparation
• Civil earthworks and bulk fill
• Dam walls, embankments and levees
• Subdivision and housing estate development
• Mine site, landfill and haul road construction
• Rail formation and pad preparation for industrial sites

Built to Last on Tough Sites

Downtime on a compaction job holds up every crew behind you, so SANY has built this 12 tonne padfoot roller for durability. The water wheel lubrication system on the vibratory bearing extends bearing life up to 5,000 hours, reducing one of the most common wear items on a vibratory roller.

Dust is the enemy of any earthmoving engine. The raised intake and double air filtration keep it out of the engine, while the three-stage hydraulic filtration protects pumps, motors and valves. For owners, that means lower maintenance costs and a stronger resale value later.

Operator Comfort and Safety

Long days on a vibrating drum are tiring. The SSR120C-10 cab sits on vibration damping mounts to cut down the shake reaching the operator, and cab temperature control keeps conditions comfortable through Australian summers. Lighter control forces reduce fatigue over a full shift.

Visibility is improved with a large rear window and a sloped hood, and rounded bumpers front and rear reduce the risk of damage and injury when working around people and other machines.

Warranty and Support

This new 12 tonne padfoot roller comes with a 3-year or 5,000-hour full warranty, whichever comes first. It is supplied by United Heavy Industries (UHI), an Australian machinery dealer with parts and service support behind every sale.
