Darien, WI (May 21, 2026) – Road Widener® is excited to introduce the new FH-RV Material Placement Attachment™, the vertical counterpart to the proven FH-R model. Designed for increased versatility and accuracy, the FH-RV enables controlled material placement for road shoulder repair, remediation, road widening, trench backfilling, and asphalt and aggregate applications.
The FH-RV features an innovative shoe design that allows operators to place material up to 5 inches below grade and 3 inches above grade, enabling them to install separate layers. Built for performance and efficiency, the attachment includes hydraulically adjustable push rollers.
For added adaptability, the FH-RV shoe can be extended with one-foot incremental extensions, allowing operators to tackle a broader range of projects. Integrated red and green indicator lights provide clear, real-time operational feedback to material haulers in front of the attachment.
With the introduction of the FH-RV Material Placement Attachment™, Road Widener continues its commitment to delivering innovative solutions that help contractors and municipalities work faster, safer, and more efficiently.
