THE ESSENTIAL SPREADER TO OVERCOME ICY ENTRYWAYS

When managing critical, high-traffic zones like entryways and confined pathways, the SnowEx® Walk-Behind Broadcast Spreaders deliver reliable, wide-area coverage. Engineered with a rugged, durable poly hopper tub in capacities of either 1.5 or 2.0 cu ft, they are built for the demanding conditions of commercial ice control. These spreaders efficiently handle bagged rock salt and pelletized material, providing the complete, consistent coverage necessary to melt ice and reduce slick spots in high pedestrian travel locations where safety is essential.

Unique Features

What Sets Walk-Behind Broadcast Spreaders Apart
Sidewalk Deflector

Sidewalk Deflector

The adjustable sidewalk deflectors are standard on the SP-85 and SP-85SS.

  • An available deflector skirt kit adjusts the spread width for sidewalk applications, narrowing the spreader’s focus to the target area only.
  • Limiting the spread pattern keeps material from being wasted off the edges of a sidewalk or driving path.
Single-Slot Port

Single-Slot Port

Exclusive single-slot port design enhances material flow from the hopper. Each SnowEx broadcast spreader features a noncorrosive poly hopper with a single-slot port design and extra-wide throat opening to maintain a smooth, consistent material flow.

Poly Cover
