The new SP-65 walk-behind broadcast spreader from SnowEx has a 100-pound capacity and is ideal for use on sidewalks, driveways and other tight applications. Capable of handling bagged rock salt and pelletized material, the spreader includes a noncorrosive polyethylene hopper with a single-slot port design and extra-wide throat opening. A convenient adjustment lever on the handle allows accurate control of the feed rate. Featuring a 10-inch plastic spinner and heavy-duty Nylatron gear drive, the unit spreads up to 12 feet wide. Large, 13-inch-diameter pneumatic tires make the unit easy to push. Also included is a top screen to prevent large chunks from entering the hopper and a clear hopper cover, which protects the material from weather elements, while allowing the operator to easily monitor levels. ,The new SP-65 walk-behind broadcast spreader from SnowEx has a 100-pound capacity and is ideal for use on sidewalks, driveways and other tight applications.

The State of Maine has been pioneering use of treated salt, Vermont has been trying it and New Jersey is starting to take a look at it, says David Wood, president of Sears Ecological Applications Co. (SEACO). Other areas, such Illinois’ McHenry County, has also experimented with treated salt and manufacturing its own brine. “The drivers here are environmental concerns, cost and performance,” Wood points out.,The State of Maine has been pioneering use of treated salt, Vermont has been trying it and New Jersey is starting to take a look at it, says David Wood, president of Sears Ecological Applications Co.

Developed 20 years ago in Germany, the blade was just introduced to the U.S. market two years ago for testing. Being marketed as the KĂĽper GK-5, transportation agency personnel say this blade makes damage of raised pavement markers on roads and highways almost nonexistent, which can prove costly for Departments of Transportation. Damage to the markers can also pose safety issues because it can strip the markers of retroreflectivity, explains Wilf Nixon, Ph.D., P.E., professor of civil and environmental engineering with University of Iowa and a top researcher on winter maintenance. ,Developed 20 years ago in Germany, the blade was just introduced to the U.S. market two years ago for testing.
