Suction Head Guide Roller

Small roller at the front of the suction head that follows surface contours. Prevents the head from digging into uneven tarmac.

Surface-Texture Sand-Patch Test

Field test using graded sand to determine macro-texture depth. Required on UK trunk-road surface-dressing sites to verify skid resistance.

Suction Hose Clip

Heavy-duty clip securing flexible suction hoses to duct flanges. Stops vibration-related leaks under high vacuum pressure.

Suction Mouth

Opening under the nozzle where air velocity captures debris.

Spray Bar Section Valve

Solenoid valve controlling each spray-bar section individually. Enables accurate binder control at varying carriageway widths.
