Komatsu JV48CW-4 Vibratory Compactor Specifications
Compaction Specs
The Komatsu JV48CW-4 is a highly versatile combined vibratory utility roller designed to deliver exceptional compaction performance across a wide range of Australian road construction, patching, and civil works. Featuring a steel vibratory drum at the front and four smooth pneumatic tyres at the rear, this machine combines the high-impact force of a vibratory roller with the sealing finish of a pneumatic tyred compactor, making it ideal for asphalt finishing and sub-base preparation.
Engineered for maximum operator comfort and operational efficiency, the JV48CW-4 features an ergonomic operator platform with excellent visibility, intuitive controls, and a reliable, fuel-efficient engine. Its compact footprint and articulated steering ensure outstanding manoeuvrability on tight urban jobsites, while the robust sprinkler system prevents asphalt sticking, ensuring a high-quality surface finish every time.

Additional Information
The Komatsu JV48CW-4 stands out in the utility compaction class due to its unique combined configuration, which eliminates the need for two separate machines on small-to-medium asphalt projects. The front steel drum provides initial compaction and density, while the rear pneumatic tyres knead and seal the surface for an immaculate finish. It features a pressurised water sprinkler system with dual filtration to prevent nozzle clogging, alongside a spacious, vibration-isolated operator station that reduces fatigue during long shifts. This combination of efficiency, reliability, and finish quality makes it a preferred choice for Australian hire fleets and civil contractors.
