Roadtec now provides equipment owners with new, after-market replacement drums for milling machines, reclaimers, utility mills, dirt trimmers, mulch shredders, and rumble strip cutters of any brand. In addition to standard drums, Roadtec supplies a range of specialty drums, from micro-milling (profiling) types to segmented, bolt-on, 4:1 tapered heads. The company also offers a comprehensive rebuild program for these components. Roadtec Drum Rebuild Services includes the rebuilding of any cutter drum or specialty head for any brand machine, including the rebuilding and straightening of dirt trimmer heads. All products can be supplied as complete units, ready to install into housing assemblies. Roadtec will install any tooling system a customer prefers on after-market or rebuilt drums.

The new cutter drum program is an expansion of the successful Roadtec Rebuild initiative, which the company has been pursuing as part of its 360 Support philosophy. Jeff Smith, VP of customer service at Roadtec says, "Our direct one-on-one relationships with our customers allow us to get to know them and their needs. We know what to do to rebuild, repair or maintain pavers, mills, material transfer vehicles, and stabilizers because that's all we work on. We are able to dedicate all our resources to working on that type equipment."

Roadtec support includes all-inclusive rebuild and maintenance programs as well as a full-service parts operation. Roadtec supplies after market parts for many brands of road building equipment under the AS Parts label. Currently, the parts operation is running a winter maintenance promotion.
