Bomags BW900-2, a 1-ton, tandem-drum roller, is equipped with a series-type hydraulic travel system. The system increases the utilization of available power, improving both forward and reverse motion. It also offers enhanced performance when working on severe approaches and steep embankments, while also making it easier to load the roller onto tilt-top or tag-a-long trailers.

It operates at 3,000 psi and is suitable for concrete removal and repair while installing doors and windows, and on anchor mounts in factories and warehouses.
