Low Profile TAILGATE SPREADERS
CONSIDER IT DONE.
Get the job done with one of the WESTERN® Low Profile tailgate spreaders. Constructed of high density polyethylene and designed for convenience and performance without affecting the operator's view from behind the wheel.
Cover
A latching, molded polyethylene lid protects de-icing material from the elements.
Electric Motor
A fully enclosed 12-volt electric, 1/3 HP motor is mounted inside a sealed housing, protecting it from corrosion.
Controls
Choose between a variable speed control with an "on/off" button and blast option to optimize material usage or a basic "on/off" toggle control (controls are sold separately).
Corrosion-Resistant Hopper
The low profile tailgate spreaders feature corrosion-free polyethylene hoppers for long-lasting durability.
Material Delivery
Material is delivered by a powder coated, vertical steel auger to provide long-lasting, reliable performance.
Spinner
Model 500 features a durable 10" polyurethane spinner that delivers a spread pattern of up to 30'.
Mounting Options
The Model 500 tailgate spreader comes standard with a Class III receiver hitch mount.
Optional Top Screen
Optional on all three models, a coated steel top screen helps break up large chunks of de-icing material during the loading process to help prevent clogging and bridging during spreader operation.
Ratchet Straps
Add additional spreader stability to your vehicle with standard nylon tie-down ratchet straps.
