Introducing the Hilltip 2000 SSA 8’ Stainless Steel IceStriker Spreader: High-Capacity Precision for Large-Scale Winter Operations
For professionals managing large snow and ice control projects, having the right equipment is essential. The Hilltip 2000 SSA 8’ Stainless Steel IceStriker Spreader is designed to provide high-capacity, durable, and efficient performance in the toughest winter conditions. Perfect for municipalities, contractors, and commercial operators, this spreader offers advanced features and precise control, ensuring efficient de-icing for highways, parking lots, and other expansive areas.
Key Features of the Hilltip 2000 SSA 8’ Stainless Steel IceStriker Spreader
1. 2.0 Cubic Yard Capacity with 8’ Hopper Length
The Hilltip 2000 SSA comes equipped with a 2.0 cubic yard hopper, offering significant capacity for spreading de-icing materials such as salt, sand, or a mixture of both. The 8-foot hopper length makes it ideal for use with large trucks and flatbeds, reducing the frequency of refills and allowing you to cover more ground with fewer interruptions. This high capacity makes it perfect for large parking lots, highways, and commercial properties.
2. Durable Stainless Steel Construction
Constructed from high-grade stainless steel, the IceStriker 2000 SSA is designed for durability and corrosion resistance, ensuring long-lasting performance even in the harshest winter conditions. Stainless steel offers superior strength, allowing the spreader to handle heavy-duty use season after season with minimal maintenance.
3. Adjustable Spreading Width and Flow Control
The IceStriker 2000 SSA offers adjustable spreading widths from 6 to 40 feet, allowing operators to tailor the spread pattern for any size job, from narrow driveways to wide highways. With precise flow control, operators can adjust the material output to ensure efficient use of resources, reducing waste and saving on material costs.
4. Electric Motor Drive for Low Maintenance
The spreader is powered by an electric motor drive, eliminating the need for hydraulic systems. This reduces maintenance requirements and ensures smooth, quiet operation. The electric motor provides consistent, reliable performance, allowing the spreader to operate efficiently in all weather conditions without the need for complex repairs.
5. Pre-Wet System Compatibility
The IceStriker 2000 SSA is compatible with a pre-wet system, which allows operators to pre-wet the material with liquid brine before spreading. Pre-wetting improves material adhesion to surfaces, reduces scatter, and enhances the overall performance of the de-icing process. This feature helps you use less material while achieving better results, saving on operational costs.
6. Hilltip StrikeSmart™ Controller
Operators have full control over the spreader’s functions using the Hilltip StrikeSmart™ system, a user-friendly touchscreen interface that allows adjustments to spreading width, flow rate, and material usage in real time. The StrikeSmart™ controller offers diagnostic and monitoring features, ensuring the spreader operates at maximum efficiency.
7. Real-Time Monitoring with Hilltip HTrack™ System
The IceStriker 2000 SSA can be integrated with the Hilltip HTrack™ system, a real-time fleet management and monitoring tool. HTrack™ allows fleet managers to track the location of each spreader, monitor material usage, and view job progress. With HTrack™, you can optimize routes, improve efficiency, and provide detailed reports to clients, ensuring transparency and accountability in your snow and ice management operations.
8. Versatile Material Handling
The IceStriker 2000 SSA is capable of handling a wide variety of materials, including bulk salt, sand, and fine material blends. This versatility allows operators to adapt to changing winter conditions, ensuring optimal performance in a range of environments.
9. Easy Installation and Removal
Designed for ease of use, the IceStriker 2000 SSA can be quickly installed or removed from large trucks, flatbeds, or UTVs. Its robust but compact design ensures that switching between jobs is fast and efficient, allowing operators to move between tasks with minimal downtime.
