Buyers Products SaltDogg 2.5 Cubic Yard Gas Stainless Hopper Spreader gives contractors and businesses a gas-powered spreader ready for commercial applications using bulk salt, bulk sand, or a 50/50 salt/sand mix. Its 10 ft hopper fits an extended bed 1 ton truck. With electric start and in-cab throttle control, the spreader combines the power of a gas engine with modern spreader conveniences.

The spreader comes equipped with a 12V electric clutch and in-cab, 3 position momentary switch and throttle. It’s powered by a 10-1/2 HP Briggs and Stratton Intek industrial/commercial engine with a battery for electric start. A heavy duty drive shaft and 1-1/8 in. sealed bearings are designed for long life. The high-torque conveyor gearbox has a 20:1 ratio with a 1 in. input shaft and 1-1/8 in. output shaft on tapered roller bearings to provide extra power on start up.

The hopper, which comes with a top screen and fully welded frame, is made from high quality 304 stainless steel for long lasting corrosion protection. It’s equipped with a steel pintle chain conveyor and features a stainless steel inverted V to reduce stress on the drive line and improve flow. The high-flow conveyor is 12 in. wide with a stainless steel floor. An adjustable feedgate with friction lock offers additional material flow control.
