FULL LENGTH HELIXX SYSTEM DESIGN
The HELIXX delivery system runs the entire length of the hopper with variable flights, promoting even unloading of material. Steel tub walls feature multiple angles and have a step built into the tub/sill joint for better material flow.
|
ADVANCED SALT DELIVERY
The patent-pending corkscrew – or “helix” – design of the HELIXX material delivery system is optimized for efficient and cost-effective use of salt and was designed to operate in the target range for salt spreading best practices. The innovative design helps prevent clogs and delivers a material flow superior to traditional augers.
|
CAB FORWARD DESIGN
The cab forward hopper delivers better payload distribution to reduce stress on the truck and prevents leakage/spilling when transporting.
|
MATERIAL LEAK/SPILL PREVENTION
The HELIXX system extends beyond the hopper and into the patented pre-wet mixing chamber to help prevent leaking/spilling during transport while providing an ideal location for pre-wetting material.
|
STAINLESS STEEL CONSTRUCTION
The hopper and frame are constructed of corrosion-resistant stainless steel. The frame features a unique leg and sill design to form a ridged backbone structure for greater durability.

|
INVERTED V
Baffle that attaches within the tub that helps to keep material off of the HELIXX system to help maximize flow of compacted materials.
|
VIBRATOR
Attached to structural cross member, it vibrates the entire unit (tub and sill) to maximize flow of bulk materials.
|
SPINNER HEIGHT ADJUSTMENT
Three spinner height adjustments allow spreaders to achieve a consistent spinner height of 18 to 22 inches off the ground, regardless of vehicle type (Standard on 11920, 11930 and 11940 models).
|
DUAL VARIABLE-SPEED CONTROL
Allows for variable control of spinner and HELIXX system speeds for precise material delivery, whether at low or high output. Features auto reverse and integrates with accessories (including pre-wet and direct liquid application).
|
SIMPLE INSTALLATION
Only requires a single 4-pin wire routed into the cab to install the compact control.
|
FLEET FLEX
The FLEET FLEX electrical system provides a consistent electrical platform and complete fleet interchangeability between all HELIXX spreaders.
|
NO-BLAST STARTUP
For maximum material placement and control, the spinner doesn’t blast upon startup, instead starting at the desired speed setting on the dial.
|
FLIP-UP/REMOVABLE CHUTE
Remove a single pin to flip-up the chute, or two pins to take it off entirely, for easy hitch access and more flexible storage. Molded spinner plug must be removed when flipped for dumping.
|
DUMP SWITCH
Rear-mounted dump switch allows operators to quickly dispose of spreading materials left in tub/material control chamber.
|
REAR-MOUNTED GEAR BOX
Easy access to motors, drives and other key components maximizes serviceability.
|
TOP SCREEN
Top screen ensures material that enters the hopper is consistent size by breaking up any large clumps and filters out large debris to ensure proper operation.
|
FORK POCKETS
For simple install and removal, fork pockets are integrated into the frame legs.
|
PRE-WET AND DIRECT LIQUID APPLICATION
Spread, pre-wet or spray with one machine. By adding pre-wet tanks, a pump and a spray kit, these HELIXX hopper spreaders can not only pre-wet materials, but they can also be used for spraying brine directly onto the driving surface for anti-icing applications. The components offer simple plug-and-play installation, meaning a contractor can upgrade to pre-wetting or direct liquid applications at any time.
