Why Choose the RC50?

Strong Compaction Performance
With up to 69 kN of centrifugal force and a 30 Hz vibration frequency, the RC50 provides the compaction force required for demanding soil and aggregate applications.

Ideal Size for Civil Construction
At around 5 tonnes operating weight, the RC50 sits in a useful size class for contractors who need more capacity than a small walk-behind or light roller, without moving into a much larger machine.

Kubota Power
The 55.4 kW Kubota diesel provides the power needed for demanding construction applications while maintaining a compact machine package.

Excellent Gradeability
With gradeability of up to 55%, the RC50 is designed to work effectively on challenging terrain and sloped jobsites.

Easy Manoeuvrability
Its compact dimensions and approximately 2.17 m wheelbase make the RC50 well suited to working in confined construction areas where a larger roller can become difficult to manoeuvre.

Typical Applications

The RC50 is well suited to:

Road construction and maintenance
Subdivision developments
Civil construction
Site preparation
Road shoulders
Trenching and backfill
Gravel and aggregate compaction
Building pads
Car parks
Driveways
Rural roads
Earthmoving projects
General soil compaction
