Caterpillar Inc. has introduced the CB14 Full Flush Utility Compactor to its product line. The new model complements the Cat high-production asphalt roller and shares many features and characteristics that are available on the intermediate-sized machines, the CB-334E and CB-335E. The CB14 has a compaction width of 31 inches and the full flush version uses a 35-inch offset front drum that provides full flush compaction close to curbs, walls and other vertical obstructions. It is powered by a Cat C1.1 diesel engine that provides 21.6 hp. The Tier 2 compliant engine is liquid-cooled and operates at 2,400 rpm. The compact size makes the machine a good choice for commercial site preparation, landscaping, small soil applications, patching, driveways, city streets, roads or adding paths to parks and small parking lots.
