Western Products introduces trio of tailgate spreaders

Western Products announced the addition of three new tailgate spreader models to its ice control equipment lineup. The company introduced the trio of tailgate spreaders—the Western Pro-Flo 900 and Pro-Flo 525 tailgate spreaders and the Low-Pro 300W wireless electric tailgate spreader.

The Pro-Flo 900 and the Pro-Flo 525 tailgate spreaders have a corrosion-free poly-hopper for long-lasting, de-icing performance, according to Western Products. Two instant-start, 12-volt electric motors power the heavy-duty auger delivery systems and spinner assemblies. Both the Pro-Flo 900 and Pro-Flo 525 spreader models include a new enhanced dual variable-speed control that allows operators to match material delivery and spread patterns to conditions. The LED control features three standard accessory buttons, a dedicated blast button and easy-to-understand digital self-diagnostics that alert the operator when the spreader is empty or adjustments are needed.

The Pro-Flo 900 holds up to 720-lbs. of bagged or bulk de-icing material and is available with optional 2-in. receiver hitch, three-point hitch and pivot/GM pivot mounts. The Pro-Flo 525 holds up to 420-lbs. of material and comes standard with combination 2-in. and three-point hitch mounts.

The Low-Pro 300W wireless electric tailgate spreader comes standard with a 2-in. receiver hitch and seven-pin plug, making it easy to install on many vehicles without drilling or wiring. The wireless one-touch, on/off key fob control provides convenience and offers two spinner speeds to match spread patterns to the application. A wide variety of mounts are available, so the Low-Pro 300W spreader can fit on many vehicles, according to the company.

A fully enclosed 12-volt motor and maximum torque transmission power the Low-Pro spreader’s 10-in. corrosion-free spinner. The hopper holds up to 3 cu. ft. of rock salt and a clear weather cover is available as an accessory.
