HELIXX Advanced Material Delivery
The patent-pending corkscrew – or “helix” – design of the HELIXX material delivery system is optimized for efficient and cost-effective use of salt and was designed to operate in the target range for salt spreading best practices. The innovative design helps prevent clogs and delivers a material flow superior to traditional augers. |
Full Length HELIXX and Multi-Dimensional Tub
The HELIXX runs the entire length of the hopper with variable flights. Combined with strategically positioned ribs/angles within the poly tub walls, this promotes the best possible material flow and even unloading. |
Triple Threat
Spread, pre-wet or spray with one machine. By adding pre-wet tanks, a pump and a spray kit, the HELIXX spreaders not only pre-wet materials, but they can also be used for spraying liquid brine directly onto the driving surface for anti-icing applications. The components offer a simple plug-and-play installation, meaning a contractor can upgrade to pre-wetting or direct liquid applications at any time. |
Cab Forward Design
The cab forward hopper delivers better payload distribution to reduce stress on the truck. |
Material Leak/Spill Prevention
The HELIXX extends beyond the hopper and into the patented pre-wet mixing chamber to help prevent leaking/spilling during transport while providing an ideal location for pre-wetting material. |
Stainless Steel Frame
Constructed of corrosion-resistant stainless steel, the frame features a unique leg and sill design to form a ridged backbone structure for greater durability. |
Chute Baffle System
Baffles within the chute direct material to key areas on the spinner resulting in a remarkably even and consistent spread pattern, as well as reducing material directed back at the vehicle. |
Spinner Height Adjustment
Three spinner height adjustments allow spreaders to achieve a consistent spinner height of 18 to 22 inches off the ground, regardless of vehicle type (Standard on 11800 and 11810 models). |
Dual Variable-Speed Control
Allows for variable control of spinner and auger speeds for precise material delivery at both a low or high output. Features auto reverse and integrates with accessories (including pre-wet and direct liquid application). |
Simple Installation
Only requires a single 4-pin wire routed into the cab to install the compact control. |
FLEET FLEX
The FLEET FLEX electrical system provides a consistent electrical platform and complete fleet interchangeability between all HELIXX spreaders. |
No-Blast Startup
For maximum material placement and control, the spinner doesn’t blast upon startup, instead starting at the desired speed setting on the dial. |
Flip-Up/Removable Chute
Remove a single pin to flip-up the chute, or two pins to take it off entirely, for easy hitch access and more flexible storage. |
Dump Switch
Rear-mounted dump switch allows operators to quickly dispose of spreading materials left in tub/material control chamber. |
Rear-Mounted Gear Box
Easy access to motors, drives and other key components maximizes serviceability. |
Work Light
Offers better visibility at rear of spreader during night applications. |
Vibrator
Attached to structural cross member, it vibrates the entire unit (tub and sill) to maximize flow of bulk materials. |
Top Screen
Ensures material that enters the hopper is consistent size by breaking up any large clumps and filters out large debris. 5/16″ steel rod construction with grid pattern |
Fitted Tarp
A tarp fitted to the spreader’s dimensions protects material from outside weather elements. |
Fork Pockets
For simple install and removal, fork pockets are integrated into the frame legs. |
