Overview

Advanced Salt Delivery

The HELIXX™ 0.7 cu yd stainless steel hopper spreader is right sized for today’s most popular half-ton and light-duty trucks. Like the full-sized HELIXX units, this model provides excellent material flow, but in a more compact size that’s better suited to handle smaller spaces and jobs.

SnowEx® 12140 HELIXX™ Compact

Full Length HELIXX Design and Multi-Dimensional Tub

The HELIXX runs the entire length of the hopper with variable flights, promoting even unloading of material. Steel tub walls feature multiple angles and have a step built into the tub/sill joint for better material flow.

SnowEx® 12140 HELIXX™ Compact

Advanced Salt 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.

SnowEx® 12140 HELIXX™ CompactCab Forward Design

The cab forward hopper delivers better payload distribution to reduce stress on the vehicle and prevents leakage/spilling when transporting.

SnowEx® 12140 HELIXX™ CompactMaterial Leak/Spill Prevention

The HELIXX system 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.

SnowEx® 12140 HELIXX™ CompactStainless Steel Construction

Hopper and frame are constructed of corrosion-resistant stainless steel. The frame features a unique leg and sill design to form a ridged backbone structure for greater durability, and riveted construction provides consistent, quality joints.

SnowEx® 12140 HELIXX™ CompactChute 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.

SnowEx® 12140 HELIXX™ CompactFlip-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. Molded spinner plug must be removed when flipped for dumping.

SnowEx® 12140 HELIXX™ CompactAccessory Integration

Conveniently connect accessories directly into the hub mounted in the back of the hopper. Accessories automatically integrate with the hopper control without having to run additional wires from the front of the vehicle.

SnowEx® 12140 HELIXX™ CompactDual Variable-Speed Control

Allows for variable control of spinner and HELIXX 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 on the 12140 model).

SnowEx® 12140 HELIXX™ CompactDump Switch & Work Light

By using the two rear mounted conveyor dump switches, operators can safely offload material. A third switch is also provided so that an accessory work light my be conveniently controlled from not only the cab but also the rear of the hopper.

SnowEx® 12140 HELIXX™ CompactSimple Installation

Only requires a single 4-pin wire routed into the cab to install the compact control.

SnowEx® 12140 HELIXX™ CompactSpinner

An extra large 12″ polyurethane spinner delivers a spread pattern of up to 30′ and provides long-lasting, corrosion-free performance.

SnowEx® 12140 HELIXX™ CompactTop Screen

Top screen ensures material that enters the hopper is consistent size by breaking up any large clumps and filters out large debris to ensure proper operation.

SnowEx® 12140 HELIXX™ CompactFLEET FLEX

The FLEET FLEX electrical system provides a consistent electrical platform and complete fleet interchangeability between all HELIXX spreaders.

SnowEx® 12140 HELIXX™ CompactNo-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.

SnowEx® 12140 HELIXX™ CompactRear-Mounted Gear Box

Easy access to motors, drives and other key components maximizes serviceability.

SnowEx® 12140 HELIXX™ CompactAccessory Knock-Outs

Hoppers feature knock-out holes for plug and play integration of certain accessories.

SnowEx® 12140 HELIXX™ CompactPre-Wet and Direct
Liquid Application

The HELIXX 0.7 cu yd stainless steel spreader is a triple threat—with the ability to spread, pre-wet or spray. By adding pre-wet tanks, a pump and a spray kit, the spreaders not only can pre-wet materials, but they can also be used for spraying brine directly onto the driving surface for anti-icing applications.
