What Is A Roller Screed

Roller screeds consist of a single tube and a power source. As the unit is pulled across forms, the tube spins against the concrete. Rolling screeds are easy to use and can be customized to fit just about any pour, including shaped forms for curbs and gutters. Tube screeds can complete pours as small as a few feet wide and as large as 30 feet. Screed rollers use a variety of power sources, including hydraulic, electric, gas, and the newly introduced battery option. The components are easy to assemble and disassemble. Their upright operating position is much easier on the operator than a hands-and-knees position.
