Western Pre-Wet System for Striker Stainless Steel Hopper Spreaders
Western Pre-Wet System for Striker Stainless Steel Hopper Spreaders
Use Less Salt and Accelerate Melting
The new Western pre-wet system accessory allows the operator to pre-wet material with a brine solution just before it hits the spinner. This provides two distinct advantages over dry application. Pre-wetting salt begins a chemical reaction in the salt which accelerates melting. Pre-wet granules also bounce less when hitting the pavement for greater material control. Studies have proven application rates can be reduced by 20%-30% when pre-wetting salt with liquids. Get more jobs done faster, saving time and money.

TWO CONTROL OPTIONS
Existing Controls
The popular electric Striker hopper spreader control (shown) already includes a pre-wet accessory button which provides simple on/off operation, allowing the operator to choose when to apply brine while spreading. The flow rate is set manually using the valve in the pump housing.
Additional In-Cab Control option
For operators who want additional flow control from inside the cab, a separate in-cab control option is available, featuring a flow control dial and warning lights that alert the operator of a clog, or if the tanks are empty.
