Bergkamp FP5 with Electric Heat.

The FP5’s electrically-heated hopper is safer than propane or hot oil patchers and heats during working and non-working hours. This all-in-one unit comes well equipped with all the tools you need to perform a more permanent pothole repair.

Other Key Information

Potholes repaired using the FP5 have an increased life over the traditional “throw and roll” method of repair. Using the FP5, the damaged area is broken up and squared off with the pavement breaker (included). The broken material is tossed in one of two onboard spoils bins located away from traffic. The air and tack wand blow out any remaining debris and apply a tack coat. Tack coating helps bind the new asphalt to the existing pavement and seals out moisture for a better patch. The movable material chute delivers the hot or cold mix asphalt to the prepared area and the compactor then consolidates the material evenly with the existing pavement.

The electric-heating system eliminates the hazards, added costs and maintenance of propane or hot oil systems common with other patchers.

Key Differences between a Bergkamp Electrically Heated and the Propane Heated Patchers
  • Live PTO configuration is a proven electric-heating system which allows for safe and even non-stop heating day and night.
  • PTO system is designed to remain engaged all day at ALL engine or travel speeds to maintain hydraulic power for electric heating.
  • Hopper heating is maintained at a specific temp by dual 240v triple-element coils powered by a hydraulically driven generator.
  • Electric coil heating eliminates propane burner flameouts, hotspots, and the need for an additional fuel source for heating.

The truck-mounted unit receives power from the truck’s engine through the live PTO and can run regardless of the truck’s RPMs or speed. A wet PTO comes standard on trucks with automatic transmissions; extending the life of the PTO and hydraulic pump. It also eliminates the need to remove the hydraulic pump to regularly grease the PTO.

The residents are happy because the smaller potholes aren't turning into larger ones anymore. Before we consistently repatched potholes and at times had trouble providing an acceptable road surface. Now, we can address the potholes when they are just an annoyance before they turn into a dangerous condition. The look is right up to grade and the patch molds firmly to the road, so we don't have to worry about our snow plowing equipment tearing them up.
