AB340-3TV Screed Heating Rod 2055043 2055045 Ironing Board Heater Assembly For Asphalt Paver

This heater assembly is the complete rod set for the AB340-3TV ironing board, covering both the 2055043 and 2055045 part numbers used on the screed plate. It is supplied as a repair kit for workshops that rebuild the screed off the machine: rods, ceramic end caps and terminal leads arrive together, so the plate can be reheated and tested on the bench before it goes back onto the paver.

• Complete rod set - 2055043 and 2055045 lengths in one kit, no second order needed when a section is rebuilt.
• Even heat across the plate - rods are resistance matched within 3 percent, so the ironing board heats uniformly and the mat does not drag on one side.
• Ceramic end caps included - new caps prevent the short circuits that appear when old caps are reused on a rebuilt plate.
• Terminal leads with original plug - ready to connect to the factory loom, no soldering on site.
• Tested before dispatch - insulation resistance and cold resistance checked rod by rod, report included.

Drain and dry the screed plate before fitting the rods, and check that the rod channels are free of hardened bitumen. Seat each rod fully into its channel, fit new ceramic caps, then measure insulation resistance to earth before switching on. On the first heat-up, bring the plate up slowly and watch for uneven hot spots; a cold section usually means a loose terminal rather than a failed rod.

• Rods sit in a foam tray so the ceramic caps cannot crack in transit.
• Export carton as standard, pallet or wooden box for bulk orders.
• Resistance test record and outgoing inspection video with every shipment.
• Online video support for wiring and first heat-up.
