AS2252C Vers-A-Mat Asphalt Screed

The AS2252C Vers-A-Mat is a production-sized screed that is well suited for commercial applications. The AS2252C Vers-A-Mat Asphalt screed offers narrow, front-mounted extenders to simplify paving width adjustment and minimize hand work.


Narrow FrontMounted Extenders



The narrow frontmounted extenders provide even material flow and reduced handwork when paving around obstacles.

Narrow FrontMounted Extenders



The extenders are mounted in front of the main screed plates. This forward location allows the extenders to easily draw in material when paving around obstacles.

Remote Extender Controls



The remote extender control allows the operator to adjust paving width and material flow while paving variable widths.

Versatility



The small footprint of the screed limits handwork when paving in tight locations. Quick reacting extenders and exceptional mat quality allows the screed to be used in commercial and highway applications.

Power Berm Optional



The power berm creates a 305 mm 12 or 457 mm 18 wide berm. The berm height is hydraulically adjustable and provides a maximum end berm height of 152 mm 6.

Screed Plates



The screed plates deliver a highquality mat and a long service life. The narrow screed plate design on the extenders provides minimal handwork in commercial applications.

Screed Plates



The main screed plate is 457 mm 18 wide and the extender screed plates are 229 mm 9 wide. They are constructed of Hardox 500 XF, an abrasion resistant alloy steel that provides a long service life.

Curved Screed Plate Design



The curved screed plate design provides precompaction and good material flow under the screed.

Electric Heating Elements



The electric heating elements provide a quick warm up time to operating temperature.

End Gates



Easy grip handles and dualbolt guides provide smooth height adjustments to ensure good jointmatching capabilities.

SpringLoaded End Gates



The springloaded end gates create a downward force that causes the gates to follow the profile of the surface being paved, ensuring a good joint with the adjacent mat.

FalseWall Design



The falsewall design reduces mix contact with the sliding portion of the gate, providing easy gate adjustments.

Bolton Design



The bolton design allows easy end gate installation and removal when transportation concerns exist.

Foldable Handles



Foldable handles located on the end gate height adjustments allow them to be fully retracted for working close to barriers.

DualBolt Guides



The dualbolt guides allow smooth vertical movements and eliminate retention chains.

Screed Controls



A stateoftheart electric heating system with easytouse controls that are located in the right place, allow the operator to make quick adjustments.

Electric Heat Control Panel



The electric heat control panel includes three temperature settings that are able to accommodate a variety of asphalt mixes and paving conditions.

Electric Heat Controller



An electric heat controller automatically regulates screed plate temperatures to the selected setting. A manual override is provided. The controller also assists troubleshooting procedures with minimal training.

Adjustable Wrist Rest



An adjustable wrist rest located on each screed control panel provides operator comfort when making screed adjustments.

Easy Grip Handles



The thickness control screws utilize spinner handles for easy depth adjustments.

Serviceability



Access to the screed plate adjusters and screed controller provides quick and easy service.

Quick Screed Plate Adjustment



The trailing edge adjustment system utilizes a threaded bolt design that eliminates shims and provides quick replacement and leveling of the screed plates.

Extender Screed Plates



The extender screed plates can be easily replaced by removing four bolts and disconnecting the electrical harnesses and hydraulic lines.

ColorCoded Electrical Wiring



Caterpillar electrical harnesses utilize a kevlar braid and nylon mounting blocks to protect against abrasion. The wires are colorcoded and numbered for fast reference. The connections are molded and soldered, providing a highly reliable system.

Replaceable Wear Strips



The wear strips located on the bottom of the end gate can be easily replaced in order to extend service life.

CANbus Interface



The CANbus electrical system on the screed provides an interface with the Advisor display on the tractor for simplified diagnostics. The screed functions are hardwired and compatible with Cat ET.
