Powered Screed

The Portascreed has been engineered to deliver high frequency vibration across the entire blade length....

This allows the operator to accurately screed the concrete surface in 75% less time than traditional screeding methods.

The Portascreed is also equipped with four independent handle vibration isolators and a fully adjustable twin handle system maximising operator comfort and screed control.

A screed is a finishing layer that is added on top of a concrete slab. Often, it is a layer of concrete you use to separate the concrete from the final floor covering on internal floors. You might bond the screed right to the concrete or place it into a membrane before placing it over the slab. A power screed is used in place of a man-powered one to create a smoother surface.

If you’re laying concrete for a small space, a simple screed might do. When it comes to large areas and laying commercial or industrial slabs, you need equipment with speed, efficiency, and predictability.

Contractors and other workers who work with concrete regularly rely on professional power screeds and power trowels for better efficiency and more professional results. Get a smooth, level surface every time you work with concrete by having the right tools for the job.

How a Power Screed Works

A power screed has a petrol motor and a long vibrating metal blade. The motor causes the vibrating action of the blade. All the operator has to do is pull the screed across the concrete surface. The screed takes care of the rest.

The screed floats on the surface of wet concrete to smooth it as it is laid. Screeds come with a range of blade lengths that you can remove and replace. While using a longer blade helps you cover larger areas in less time, it also makes it more difficult to work in tight places.

Any power screed works faster than manually screeding concrete. But, the quality of the machine determines how professional your results are and how comfortable you are using it over time. A top-quality power screed helps you get a more professional finish to your concrete in a shorter time without a lot of time and energy invested. It’s a must-have tool for anyone who frequently lays concrete floors, paths, driveways, yards, and more.
