The Game-Changer You Didn’t Know You Needed for Slab Prep

Why the Schwing Loop Belt Is the Smarter Way to Place Gravel Before a Concrete Pour
Have you ever needed to lay gravel in preparation for a large concrete slab, only to run into a maze of plumbing, electrical lines, or other utilities? Add in trenches that need careful backfilling, and suddenly, using a skid steer to spread gravel becomes a frustrating challenge.
Many crews turn to slinging gravel, but that comes with its own set of problems:
Risk of damaging underground utilities
Difficulty controlling fill depth in trenches
Limited placement range
Inconsistent results due to wind or particle separation
If this sounds familiar, it’s time to consider a better solution: the Schwing Loop Belt.
What Makes the Schwing Loop Belt Different?
The Loop Belt is a high-capacity conveyor belt system designed for placing gravel, stone, sand, and other aggregates with precision and efficiency.
✅ No more navigating tight spaces with heavy machinery — The Loop Belt easily reaches over obstacles.
✅ Even, accurate placement — Ideal for areas with trenches or sensitive utilities.
✅ Up to 130 feet of horizontal reach — Most jobs can be completed with just one setup.

Working Indoors? No Problem.
Many indoor pours pose height clearance issues — but the Schwing Loop Belt is up to the task.
Its telescoping arms require only 17 feet of ceiling height, making it a perfect option for slab prep inside buildings, warehouses, or other enclosed spaces.
