Description
Hitch-mounted spreaders lose material control when undersized poly hoppers bow out and spill salt around receiver mounts. The Buyers Products Company SaltDogg TGS07 11 Cubic Foot Tailgate Spreader provides high-capacity bagged salt spreading with a horizontal feed auger that prevents dribble. It carries 11 Cubic Feet of deicer. Total filled weight requires mounting on a minimum Class IV receiver.
A durable rotationally molded polyethylene hopper resists chemical rust and stands up to sub-zero winter impacts. The integrated mounting framework uses heavy tubular steel with gusseted plates protected by a durable powder-coated finish. A commercial-grade 12 Volt DC gear motor powers both the horizontal feed auger and the poly spinner disc through an enclosed mechanical gearbox.
Receiver Hitch Deicing Hardware Platform
The integrated horizontal auger pulls bagged deicer positive toward the spinner disc to stop unwanted material loss between salting runs. The low-profile hopper maintains rear window visibility from the truck cab.
- 11 Cubic Foot poly hopper holds up to 825 pounds of bagged rock salt, flakes, or calcium chloride.
- Class IV 2-inch hitch receiver mount secures the unit firmly behind heavy-duty commercial pickups.
- Commercial 12 Volt electric gear motor delivers consistent drive torque through cold, packed salt.
- Integrated horizontal feed auger meters salt flow to eliminate uncontrolled gravity spillage.
- 9-inch commercial polymer spinner disc throws deicing chemicals in patterns from 3 to 30 feet wide.
- In-cab variable-speed digital controller lets the driver adjust broadcast patterns without leaving the cab.
- Molded poly hopper lid seals out blowing snow and freezing rain during highway transit.
Electrical Load Motor Heat Benchmarks
Running with a full 825-pound load of bagged salt draws 24 Amps from the vehicle 12 Volt system at maximum throw speed. Electric motor casing temperature reaches 130°F after 90 minutes of continuous lot salting. Motor shaft speed stabilizes at 600 RPM under full material resistance. Spinner acoustic output measures 63 dBA at five feet from the receiver.
Tailgate Salter Bounds Field Directives
Commercial snow operators, industrial facility teams, and shopping center grounds crews clear access lanes fast with this horizontal auger spreader. Do not run moist bulk rock salt or sand through this unit because material chunks will jam the horizontal feed tube. Never drop full salt bags straight onto the open spinner chute.
- Flush all salt residue from the feed auger tube and spinner disc with fresh water after each snow route.
- Apply dielectric silicone grease to the 12 Volt vehicle wiring plugs every 30 days during winter.
- Check the 2-inch hitch receiver pin and frame mounting bolts for tightness prior to every storm event.
