  • Sand Drum (Standard)

    • The sand drum is constructed with powder-coated mild steel, and features small tabs welded in a helical patten across it’s surface. These tabs release pressure on the finger bar as the drum rotates, releasing material. The helical pattern creates a cross-hatched drop, which ensures an efficient spread of material.

    • The sand drum is standard across models unless alternate option is specified at the time of ordering.

    Salt Drum

    • The salt drum is constructed with tivar rollers that feature small pockets, milled in a helical pattern across it’s surface. These pockets allow for material to sit inside and drop as the drum rotates past the finger bar. The helical pattern creates a cross-hatched drop, which ensures an efficient spread of material.

    • The salt drum is recommended only when rock salt will be used exclusively.

    Hopper Extension

    • Increase hopper capacity with a bolt-on extension.

    • 6” Extension adds 2.5ft³ of capacity

    • 12” Extension adds 5ft³ of capacity
