Cat CB4.0, CB4.4, and CC4.0 specifications

Choose width and equipment before treating these as equivalent rollers

The CB4.0 and CC4.0 references both give a compaction width of 51.2 in, while the CB4.4 entry widens that to 55.1 in. The shared C1.7T designation and 48.2 hp / 36 kW engine pair therefore do not distinguish the working width. A buyer comparing an abbreviated CB4 advertisement should establish the complete suffix and inspect its compaction arrangement rather than assume that the engine badge identifies the roller.

For the CB4.0, Cat separates 7,971 lb standard operating weight with ROPS from 9,493 lb maximum operating weight with ROPS. The CB4.4 reference likewise lists 8,362 lb standard and 9,885 lb maximum. Those entries describe different conditions; the standard figure cannot stand for a machine carrying every permitted ballast or option.

A quotation that names only “operating weight” leaves the transport comparison incomplete. Obtain the fitted configuration and use its stated basis when arranging the move.

Keep each measurement’s physical meaning

The CB4.0 page explicitly supplies 2853 mm for overall length, although the other unit label in that row reads kg/cm. A mass-per-length label cannot identify an overall dimension. Use the documented metric length.

Similarly, the centrifugal-force entries retain the directly published force units: 33.47 kN for CB4.0 and CC4.0, and 34.82 kN for CB4.4. They are not linear drum-load ratings. Standard weight, compaction width, static linear load and centrifugal force answer separate questions and should not be substituted for one another.

The CC4.0 document’s maximum-weight row pairs 3936 lb with 8659 kg, an internally inconsistent pair. Neither side is used to assert a maximum machine mass. Its separately labelled 7,889 lb standard ROPS weight remains available.

The same CC4.0 source distinguishes the fuel, water-spray and tire-spray tanks; they are separate refill systems, not alternative names for a single capacity. Its optional equipment list also distinguishes a ballast kit from the standard configuration. Before ordering parts or relying on a transport mass, match the machine’s actual equipment to a corrected serial-specific document.
