A compaction wheel (100,200) for a vehicle includes a rigid cylinder forming a single layer rim (110,210). Ans may include an annular axle shield (250) secured to the inner face of the wheel disk (140,215). A plurality of cleats (310) are removably mounted on the outer surface of the rim (110,210). A wheel disk (140,215) mounted within the drum defines a central opening (220) for receiving an axle (150,230) of the vehicle. the cylinder (100,200) may include a plurality of cleat-mounting apertures (325) extending between its inner and outer surfaces. The cleats (310) include features matable with the cleat-mounting apertures (325). In one embodiment, threaded members (470) carried by the cleats (310) are sized for through the cleat-mounting apertures (325). Nuts (475) thread onto the threaded members (470) for securing the cleats (465) to the rim. In another embodiment, the cleats (485) include tongues (490) sized for insertion through the cleat-mounting apertures (510). |
