Curbed Pin
In order to extrude curb over pins a special curbform is required. It requires the curb height to be at least 5″ greater than the pin height. For example, if the pin height is 2″, the curb needs to be at least 7″ high. The additional height allows for the centerline of the auger to…

Tail Wheel Outrigger
The Tail Wheel Outrigger option allows an operator to stabilize the curb extruder for a variety of job conditions. If a front wheel assembly is offset to accommodate rebar; if a wide curb is being extruded and the tail wheel is moved severely off-center, or if curb is being laid in a trench—the Tail Wheel…

Cast Compaction Tube
The Cast Compaction Tube option allows for extended compaction tube life. The Cast Compaction Tube is made from white iron, and—unlike the fabricated compaction tube—is homogeneous in material makeup and therefore uniform in hardness throughout.

Removable Hopper Side Plates
Optional Removable Hopper Side Plates are now a new feature which any new machine will accommodate. This option allows an operator to remove the side panel from the hopper for wheel barrow access or ease of shoveling. Easy replacement of the hopper panel increases hopper capacity and allows for overhead loading as from a truck…

Swivel Rear Wheel
The Swivel Rear Wheel option facilitates removal of the curb extruding machine at a job’s conclusion. Situations such as obstructions or lack of base for machine travel do—at times—require physically lifting the machine (sometimes with a loaded hopper) off the curb. With the Swivel Rear Wheel, the operator can avoid this difficulty; by rotating the…

In this situation the entire auger housing, compaction tube and curb form are lowered into the trench. On the pictures below you will notice how the auger housing has an extension on it so it can…
