AS3301C SCREED

Screed plates deliver a high-quality mat and a long service life.

BENEFITS AND FEATURES

Precompaction And Material Flow Curved nose bar design provides precompaction and enhances material flow under the screed.

Nose Bar And Screed Plate Replacements Nose bar and screed plate replacement are simplified with tapped holes and studs.

Heavy-Duty Mounting Platform Heavy-duty mounting platforms provide rigid support for screed plates, which simplifies leveling.

Saves time with the trailing edge screed plate leveling system.

BENEFITS AND FEATURES

Extra Corrosion Resistance The trailing edge adjusting bolt system hardware is plated to provide extra corrosion resistance.

Spring-loaded end gates create a downward force that causes the gates to follow the profile of the surface being paved, assuring a good joint with the adjacent mat.

BENEFITS AND FEATURES

False-Wall End Gate Design False-wall design reduces mix contact with the sliding portion of the gate, providing easy gate adjustments.

Bolt-on End Gate Design Bolt-on design allows easy end gate installation and removal.

Replaceable Wear Strip Replaceable wear strip enhances end gate service life.

Full-Length End Gate Full-length end gate contains material, providing an optimal longitudinal joint.

Triangular configuration of the extender supports provide torsional resistance and rigidity.

BENEFITS AND FEATURES

Visual Graduated Scales Visual graduated scales indicate the distance that the extenders move in or out.

Hydraulically Driven Vibrators Hydraulically driven vibrators located on the extenders are synchronized with the main screed to match frequency and amplitude.

Vertical Height Adjustment Vertical height adjustment allows the extenders to match the main screed height.

Highly efficient electric heating system provides warm-up time in 30 minutes or less.The AS3301C offers an electric screed plate heating system. The electric screed plate heating system is highly efficient and provides fast warm-up. The electric heating system features an integrated generator and multi-zone heating elements for even heat distribution.

BENEFITS AND FEATURES

Multi-Zone Heating Element Multi-zone heating element configuration provides even heat distribution.

Screed Control Panel Screed control panel includes three temperature settings that are able to accommodate normal hot mix asphalt and extended temperature based mixes.

Regulated Screed Plate Temperature Controller automatically regulates the screed plate temperature to the selected setting.

Minimal Operator Training On-board diagnostics and screed control panel require minimal operator training.

The AS3301C screed is easy and fast to service.

BENEFITS AND FEATURES

Hydraulic Hoses And Electrical Wiring Hydraulic hoses and electrical wiring harnesses are cleanly routed and clamped to reduce wear and provide easy service.

Remote-Mounted Fittings Remote-mounted fittings for vibrator bearings provide simplified lubrication access.

Reliability O-Ring face seal fittings and couplings provide maximum protection against hydraulic leaks.

Nylon Sleeve Protection Exposed hoses have nylon sleeve protection to reduce abrasion.

Vibrator System Hydraulic Lines Vibrator system hydraulic lines are constructed of steel tubing, providing durability and resistance to damage.

Electrical Standards The Cat® electrical standards, developed to enhance reliability and durability, feature soldered, molded, numbered and color-coded wires. Nylon-braided wrap protects the electrical wires.

Electrical Schematics Electrical schematics detailing wire numbers, wire colors and component part numbers are located in the service manual.
