Screed Maintenance and Rebuild. Maintaining These High Wear Components.

It’s always a good time to develop a proper maintenance plan for your pavers, but seasonal transitions are ideal for considering all your options. This is especially true when it comes to screeds. For example, screed plates are some of the highest wear components on your paver, so proactively checking and replacing parts and components is essential to maintain performance.

Your Cat® dealer can do a thorough inspection that includes a comprehensive summary of the condition of your paver and screed. Contact your dealer to schedule an inspection today!

Let’s take a look at all the options available to you when repairing, maintaining or rebuilding your screed.

 

Screed Kits and Parts

  • Screed Maintenance Kits.

    Kits ranging from plates, deflectors, service and heating element kits are available. Kits include all the parts and necessary hardware to replace these key wear components.

  • Extended Life Parts.

    If your application includes highly abrasive aggregates, extended life wear parts might be for you. These parts are designed for longer life than standard wear parts and can be used as direct replacements. Available for screed plates and nose bars.

  • Tamper Bar Kits, End Gate and Shoe Options.

    Multiple options exist depending on your equipment model, application, upgrade needs and many other factors.
