Winter maintenance professionals know that when the snow starts piling up and the ice takes over, having the right equipment can make all the difference. At ZipEquip, we’re excited to offer the 2800 AM Hilltip IceStriker Spreader, a powerful salt and sand spreader that boasts a large 2.8 cubic yard capacity, designed for the biggest jobs. With its state-of-the-art features and advanced technology, this spreader delivers reliable, efficient performance that stands up to the harshest winter conditions.

Key Features of the 2800 AM Hilltip IceStriker Spreader

1. Massive 2.8 Cubic Yard Capacity

The 2800 AM IceStriker comes with a 2.8 cubic yard hopper, making it one of the largest spreaders in its class. This allows you to handle massive jobs, such as highways, airports, and large commercial properties, without constantly stopping to refill. Its large capacity ensures uninterrupted work, maximizing productivity and saving valuable time.

2. Durable Polyethylene Hopper Construction

Constructed with high-density polyethylene, the 2800 AM’s hopper is both lightweight and resistant to corrosion, ensuring it will withstand the toughest winter conditions. Its durable design minimizes wear and tear, keeping maintenance costs low while maximizing the lifespan of the spreader.

3. Customizable Spreading Width and Material Flow

The 2800 AM IceStriker offers adjustable spreading widths between 6 and 40 feet, allowing you to fine-tune the spread pattern for any job. Whether you’re working on narrow streets or broad open areas, the spreader delivers optimal coverage while minimizing material waste. The adjustable flow control ensures precise application, helping you manage material usage effectively.

4. Advanced HTrack™ Fleet Management System

Equipped with the Hilltip HTrack™ system, the 2800 AM IceStriker offers real-time tracking and fleet management capabilities. From GPS tracking to live material usage reports, the HTrack™ system helps you optimize your fleet’s efficiency. It also provides detailed job reports, which are useful for accurate billing and client transparency.

5. Dual Auger System for Smooth Material Distribution

The spreader’s dual auger system ensures continuous and even material flow, preventing clogs and ensuring consistent operation. This system is designed to handle bulkier materials like sand and gravel without interruption, making it perfect for large-scale operations.

6. Electric Motor Drive for Maximum Efficiency

The electric motor drive on the 2800 AM IceStriker eliminates the need for hydraulic systems, resulting in lower maintenance and smoother, quieter operation. This low-maintenance electric motor is both energy-efficient and eco-friendly, reducing operational costs and environmental impact.

7. Pre-Wet System and Brine Compatibility

The 2800 AM IceStriker is compatible with pre-wet systems, allowing you to apply liquid brine to salt or sand before spreading. Pre-wetting helps reduce material scatter, improves adhesion to surfaces, and increases the overall effectiveness of the material. This feature leads to better de-icing performance and less material waste, helping you save on operational costs.

8. Heavy-Duty Design for Extreme Winter Conditions

Built to handle the most demanding winter environments, the 2800 AM is designed with rugged, high-quality components that ensure reliability and durability. From its heavy-duty hopper to its robust auger system, this spreader is ready to perform, no matter the conditions.

9. Versatile Mounting Options

The 2800 AM IceStriker is designed to fit a wide variety of vehicles, from large pickup trucks to commercial and municipal plow trucks. This versatility allows it to seamlessly integrate into existing fleets, providing a flexible and efficient solution for all your winter maintenance needs.
