Spreaders worth their salt

Broadwood International has
launched two new SnowEx
spreaders for pedestrian use. The
SP-85 is self-powered by its own
wheels, which transmit drive
through a sealed gearbox to a
spinning disc, spreading salt in a
circular motion.

The new SD-95 drop spreader
‘lays out’ dry rock salt. A
pneumatic-tyred wheel
at each end of the polyethylene
hopper keeps the
spreader stable and easy
to manoeuvre,
and allows
rock salt to drop through the
bottom of the hopper via an
adjustable flow gate. This makes the
SD-95 suitable for use on walkways
and paths where overspreading
might damage grass and bordering
foliage.
