The Caterpillar CP44B is a highly efficient 7-tonne padfoot soil compactor, specifically engineered to tackle cohesive and semi-cohesive materials. It is an industry favourite for Australian residential developments and light commercial site preparation where a smaller footprint is required without sacrificing compaction depth.

The CP44B features a high-traction propel system and a heavy-duty padfoot drum that provides the kneading action necessary for materials like clay and silt. Its pod-style vibratory system ensures maximum force is delivered to the ground, while the dual-pump propel system provides separate flow to the rear wheels and the drum for exceptional gradeability.
