DSGPULW DuoScreed is ideal for form-to-form and wet screeding. Blades not included and need to be purchased separately
The DuoScreed sports a unique blade profile that enables just one operator to quickly and accurately strike off concrete floors using a single blade for both form-to-form or wet screeding applications.
- Simple but durable power unit utilizes a maintenance-free flexible drive shaft design
- Powered by a Honda GX35 4-stroke gasoline engine
- Control handle is adjustable to operator height and sports a convenient fingertip throttle control
- Easily maneuver around obstructions without marring slab surface
- Unique light-weight blade design (1.95 pounds per linear foot) requires no tools to remove and is ideal for form-to-form or wet screeding
- While the unit is in the stand alone position, adjust the handles to waist height to utilize the form to form side of the blade.
- While the unit is in the stand alone position, simply lower the operator handle to knee level to use the wet screed side of the blade.
- Blade sizes available in lengths from 6 to 16 feet (1.8 to 4.8 meters)
- Exciter weight is quickly and easily adjustable for different blade lengths, no tooling required.

Product Overview: DSGPULW DuoScreed
The DuoScreed sets itself apart with a unique blade profile and maintenance-free flexible drive shaft, allowing one person to quickly, accurately, and ergonomically strike off concrete for a dense, flat finish. Combined with a rugged Honda GX35 4-stroke gasoline engine and high-frequency vibration, the DSGPULW is built for both commercial and residential flatwork—eliminating the labor-intensive, time-consuming nature of traditional hand screeding.
Key Features and Benefits
-
Unique Dual-Function Blade: One blade reverses for both form-to-form and wet screeding. Raising or lowering the operator’s handle quickly switches modes, with no blade swap required.
-
Maintenance-Free Flexible Shaft: Power unit drive utilizes a flexible shaft with no tools needed for removal, reducing downtime and boosting jobsite workflow.
-
Honda GX35 Engine: The premier 1.3 HP, 4-stroke engine offers smooth power delivery, fuel efficiency, and years of reliable starts—even in harsh conditions.
-
Blade Lengths to Match Any Job: Available blades span from 6 to 16 feet (1.8–4.8 m), suiting pours large and small. Blades are made of extruded aluminum—just 1.95 pounds per foot—minimizing operator fatigue and surface marking.
-
Rapid Adjustment: Exciter weights easily adjust without tools for different blade lengths and vibration requirements, tailoring the finish to jobsite needs.
-
Ergonomic Performance: Height- and angle-adjustable handle, vibration isolators, and fingertip throttle control deliver comfort and control all day long. The screed easily maneuvers around obstructions or pipes without marking freshly placed slabs.
Technical Specifications
How It Works: DuoScreed in Action
Operators can quickly position the handle at waist level for form-to-form screeding, or lower to knee height for wet screeding—all with the same reversible blade. This unique design means there’s no need to swap blades or buy multiple blade profiles as required by competitor equipment.
The high-frequency vibration from the adjustable exciter distributes aggregate, minimizes air voids, and produces a dense, strong concrete surface. Foam-filled ends or plastic end caps prevent material from entering the blade—maintaining clean, consistent strikes every pass.
Ergonomics and Safety
-
Vibration Isolators: Integrated into the handle reducing hand-arm vibration exposure, supporting longer pours without operator fatigue.
-
Fingertip Throttle: Allows for rapid RPM changes based on pour thickness or performance needs.
-
Lightweight System: With no tools needed for assembly/disassembly, the DSGPULW is easy to clean, move, and store.
-
Operator Comfort: Fully adjustable handles match operator height, improving balance and reducing cramps or back strain.
Applications
-
Commercial slab pours—warehouses, parking decks, tilt-ups
-
Residential driveways, patios, sidewalks, foundation slabs
-
Industrial flatwork requiring rapid, uniform finishing
-
Large multi-bay floors for factories or retail outlets
The DSGPULW delivers consistent finish grades even with just one operator—doubling or tripling jobsite efficiency over all-manual crews.
