Asphalt and aggregate road widener
The SP-6 Self-Propelled Road Widener provides a one-man, one-machine solution for shoulder widening and maintenance. The smallest unit in the Midland SP product line is a cost effective machine for spreading materials up to six feet wide next to the roadway. This unit was engineered to a width of 8 feet 6 inches and length of 15 feet to allow for transport without permits. The 2.5 cubic yard fold-up hopper is equipped with a 15-inch variable speed, roller-chain-driven conveyor.
Other features include a modular blade for variable spread width of one to six feet with an additional option for hydraulic extension of one to two feet. A 49-hp John Deere Tier II turbo diesel engine with hydraulic drives provides a travel speed of zero to eight mph and ground speed of zero to 150 feet per minute.
The dealers representing the Midland products say they like this no-hassle machine for its rental opportunities and ease of transport.
With the SA and WA widener attachments, the self-propelled SP-8, SPD-8, SPD-10 and now the SP-6, municipalities and private contractors have a wider range of choices to spread, fill, or grade hot mix asphalt or aggregate next to the road – at, above or below grade, from one to 10 feet wide.
