Roller Strikers join our range

1st December 2009

rollerstrikerJust added to our range of equipment is a Belle Roller Striker.

The Roller Striker strikes off and finishes concrete slabs easily. A spinning tube pulls up the surcharge of concrete as it goes. The spinning roller action leaves aggregate near the surface resulting in a very strong floor, ready for power trowelling if required.

This first Striker comes with a choice of 3.7m or 6.1m tubes.

  • Hydraulic power pack
  • Easy to set up (just fit the drive and connect to the power pack).
  • Simple operation.
  • Highly manoeuvrable for difficult applications.
  • Ideal for ground floor slabs, suspended floors and slopes.
  • Quick to clean (the smooth tube just needs hosing down).
