The Hilltip IceStriker 500 salt and sand spreader is designed for use on UTVs and half-ton pickups, as well as other small machines. The IceStriker 500 features a stainless steel hopper body that is corrosion-resistant and easy to clean, while facilitating smooth material flow. Material delivery is further optimized by an inverted V with a vibrator to help prevent bridging. A 2.5” stainless steel auger is also included to provide a consistent material flow to the spinner. An advanced color screen controller comes standard with the IceStriker 500, providing the ability to either manually set a fixed auger speed or have the material spreading rate automatically adjusted according to vehicle speed. The user-friendly interface provides easy control of the various spreader functions, such as the vibrator and work light, from the comfort of the cab. Additionally, the controller collects and saves essential data to a USB memory device, which can be used for generating reports.
