Hey, is this roller good enough to pass compaction density tests on a house pad? Have you ever had any issues with that? I’m tired of renting ride on rollers, they’re so expensive, but I’m nervous about passing density tests.Also do you feel like they add extra wear on your machine or are the vibrations pretty well isolated?

[@GodsCountry]

I'm sorry but I don't know the answer to that. It belongs to my brother and he uses it mostly for road compaction and nothing that gets tested. The roller itself seems to have been reliable over the years. I don't believe there have been any vibration issues but the roller is only on this machine a small percentage of the time.
