SnowEx, a division of TrynEx International, introduces the new SP-2400 replaceable tailgate spreader, one of the first polyethylene-constructed replaceable tailgate spreaders on the market.

The all-electric SP-2400 works with a vehicle's 12-volt DC electrical system, making it easily adaptable to a range of equipment. A dump truck can be converted in just a few hours for salt/sand spreading. Since electricity runs the truck's hydraulic actuator, the electric spreader can be installed quickly without hoses, pumps, and other hydraulic components. A hydraulic PTO is not required.

An in-cab dual controller allows the operator to regulate the speed of the auger, as well as the spinner speed. The SP-2400 can spread road sand, bulk salt, or any combination of sand/salt mixture as far as 30 feet out. A self-leveling spinner assembly stays parallel to the ground as the dump bed rises and lowers, keeping the spread pattern consistently even throughout the application. A SnowEx-patented vibrator/inverted “V” system further maximizes material flow.

The SP-2400 doesn't incorporate engines, chains, sprockets, or pulleys in its construction, reducing any maintenance concerns. An all-steel frame with an electrostatic powdercoat finish resists corrosion. The spreader also is backed by a two-year warranty on parts and labor.
