The FH-R material placement attachment cut a 4-step process down to just 2 steps. Rather than dumping material on the road and pushing it with equipment then having to clean up after, the FH-R makes it possible to put material directly where it needs to go in an efficient and accurate manner. I estimate the FH-R has boosted our operational efficiency by at least 15% and improved production timelines by up to 25%-- all while maintaining high-quality work. It also decreased the impact to traffic as the attachment is compact and only requires us to close one lane of traffic.”

After demoing the FH-R material placement attachment for a day, we were impressed with the results and decided to purchase one. Since then, I have continued to be happy with the ways the FH-R has boosted efficiency as we install 1-gig fiber for high-speed internet. The FH-R allows us to place asphalt exactly where we need it, eliminating a lot of shoveling and hand work. Less shoveling means less manual labor required which allowed us to double the production time with half the crew. The simplicity of this attachment makes it reliable and user-friendly. It operates exactly as advertised and we expect it to continue to be a tremendous asset to our operation.”

I’ve been using Road Widener’s FH-R material placement machine since September 2020. As a small contractor, this tool has helped me take on demanding jobs that no one else wanted to touch — and do it profitably — all with my small crew. I can’t emphasize enough how much we can get done with this machine. With a crew of three — one in the skid steer and two running trucks — we can lay as much as 5 linear miles in a day, with high levels of precision. It’s a game changer for my business.”

Road Widener’s FH-R material placement attachment has significantly improved our trench backfilling productivity for telephone and internet line installation. The attachment seamlessly attaches to our loader and allows us to laydown 10 yards of material in as little as three to five minutes — a task that took us 15 minutes previously. We are continuously impressed by its ease-of-use, accurate material distribution and quality placement — even in hard-to-reach places.”

Road Widener’s products have become an irreplaceable addition to our business. We saw the product in action, we experienced how it worked, and knew we had to offer it to our customers. At first, we were still skeptical that the FH-R could do everything it was supposed to do. Well, trust me. It does. Our customers say it takes 4 or 5 fewer workers than before for the same task. Plus, they love the efficiency and the time-saving benefits. The FH-R is well engineered and simple to operate. Anybody can run it.”

— Jimbo Thompkins, Wagner Equipment Co., Key Account Manager

Most of our customers mention how investing in Road Widener’s FH-R attachment is more economical than even renting self-powered machines, and how the smaller footprint offers better maneuverability, allowing them to work in tighter areas. It improves how they’re able to operate and get things done.”
