Take complete command of major commercial ice control contracts with industrial-grade capacity and the smooth, continuous metering of a high-torque auger feed. The Buyers Products SaltDogg® PRO Series Electric Poly Hopper Auger Spreader drops directly into full-size truck beds and utility flatbeds, providing an uncompromising combination of high-volume material containment and professional anti-ice management. By separating the drive mechanisms into an independent dual-motor configuration, the PRO Series Auger line delivers massive scraping and feeding power without the loud noise, constant fueling, and endless maintenance of small gas engines. Available at Riverside Trailers, this premium V-box configuration helps Southern Idaho contractors maximize seasonal efficiency and revenue through the toughest winter freezes.
Engineered for commercial snow removal crews, municipal parking lots, property management teams, and large industrial hubs, this full-size in-bed hopper spreader integrates seamlessly onto heavy-duty utility vehicles, including:
- 3/4-Ton Trucks (Ford F-250, Chevy Silverado 2500HD, RAM 2500, GMC Sierra 2500HD)
- 1-Ton Trucks & Duallys (Ford F-350, Chevy Silverado 3500HD, RAM 3500, GMC Sierra 3500HD)
- Super Duty Chassis Cabs, Dump Beds, and Flatbed Commercial Rigs
Available Hopper Capacities for Commercial Fleet Scaling
The SaltDogg PRO Series Auger lineup is available in three distinct, high-volume models engineered to match your truck bed length, payload limits, and route requirements:
1.5 Cubic Yard Capacity: Optimized for short-bed or long-bed trucks with a minimum bed length of 69.0 inches. Features an overall length of 92.60 inches and a shipping weight of 634 lbs, perfect for managing mid-sized commercial routes natively.
2.0 Cubic Yard Capacity: The industry-standard sweetheart configuration for full-size long-bed utility trucks. Features a 90.20-inch hopper length (100.80-inch overall length) built to slide cleanly into standard 8-foot beds. Minimum bed length required: 76.5 inches. Shipping weight: 684 lbs.
2.5 Cubic Yard Capacity: Massive high-volume containment engineered for long flatbeds, large dump bodies, and medium-duty utility trucks executing expansive municipal contracts. Requires a minimum bed length of 97.0 inches. Overall length: 124.80 inches. Shipping weight: 986 lbs.
Double-Wall Poly Hopper & Premium 304 Stainless Steel Trough
Say goodbye to rusted metal beds and chipped paint scaling. The PRO Series features a patented, double-wall black polyethylene hopper that is completely rustproof, corrosion-proof, and lightweight to optimize your vehicle's actual legal payload capacity. To guarantee unyielding structural durability where material stress is highest, the auger floor features an integrated 304 stainless steel trough. This protects your investment from highly aggressive brine spray, moisture trapping, and seasonal wear for a lifetime of heavy commercial service.
High-Torque 5-1/4" Variable Pitch Auger & Industrial Dual Motors
Unlike traditional conveyor chains, the PRO Series Auger line utilizes a full-length, 5-1/4 inch variable pitch auger. Backed by a high-torque 20:1 gearbox, this continuous flighting acts as a positive force feed to cleanly break up chunks and push materials uniformly to the chute. To provide maximum system flexibility, the drive is split into a completely independent dual-motor 12V VDC setup: a powerful 0.75 HP motor drives the auger feed, while an independent 0.50 HP motor drives the spinner, letting you adjust material feed rates separate from your spreading velocity.
Crucial Note on Material Compatibility & Standard 200 lb Vibrator
Just a quick heads-up regarding material matching: because this model features a precision-metering horizontal auger rather than a heavy pintle conveyor chain, it has specific material requirements. To ensure a uniform flow down the poly hopper walls and prevent stubborn bridging on cold Magic Valley mornings, Buyers Products includes a commercial-grade, factory-installed 200 lb force industrial vibrator system right out of the box:
Bulk Salt, Bagged #1 Rock Salt, & Salt/Sand Mixes: Dry bulk salt straight from a supply yard, coarse bagged rock salt, and standard salt/sand mixes flow beautifully. The variable-pitch auger meters these materials effortlessly down to the discharge chute without binding, saving you substantial material costs.
100% Bulk Sand: Pure bulk sand absorbs atmospheric moisture rapidly, packs down tightly under its own massive weight, and is highly abrasive. Because there is no chain conveyor floor to pull the dense weight, pure sand will bridge completely and jam the auger mechanism. If your route demands pure bulk sand, look to the SaltDogg PRO Chain Series instead!
High-Current In-Cab Controller & Side-Swing Poly Chute
Take absolute control over slick winter conditions without ever opening your truck cab doors. The PRO Series Auger line includes an intuitive, hardwired high-current variable-speed in-cab digital controller that allows you to independently dial the auger feed and spinner speeds up or down on the fly. Adjust your spreading width range anywhere from a tight 5-foot strip for narrow access alleys up to an expansive 30-foot radius to cover broad industrial lots in a single run. For effortless trailer hookups or out-of-season storage, the adjustable-height polyethylene chute features a quick-release side-swing design that tilts out of the way in seconds without tools.
Heavy-Duty Standard Features Included
- Oversized 14-Inch Polyurethane Spinner: Highly durable, impact-resistant spinner disc that throws material uniformly without bending, rusting, or chipping.
- Heavy-Duty Top Screen Included: Rugged steel top grid that breaks up massive frozen chunks before they enter the hopper, protecting your variable-pitch auger from damage during bulk loader fills.
- Form-Fitted Tarp System Prep: The hopper geometry is pre-formed to easily accept matching weather-proof tarps to keep your bulk inventory bone-dry during heavy winter downpours.
