Steel-Caster Compact
BUILT WITH YOUR TRUCK IN MIND
Make easy work of snow and ice with a hopper spreader that’s purpose-built for half-ton and light-duty trucks. Designed in both 0.7 and 0.35 cu yd capacities, the all-new STEEL-CASTER™ stainless steel hopper spreaders have all the power and performance of larger FISHER® STEEL-CASTER hopper spreaders, but in a more compact size to better accommodate your smaller spaces and jobs.
Features:
• Dual Electric Motors: The two high-torque 12-volt electric motors provide quiet, reliable and independent control over the conveyor and spinner mechanisms. The spinner motor is sealed inside a weather-resistant housing, protecting it from corrosion, while the conveyor motor is completely sealed from the elements. Gas and hydraulic options also available.
• Innovative Chute Design: The chute design delivers material to the precise points on the spinner that cast it out and away from the truck, instead of back onto your bumper, reducing material waste.
• Corrosion-Resistant Hopper: Constructed from maintenance-free, corrosion-resistant stainless steel, the hopper is reinforced with welded joints, which wrap around for long-life and protection against stress.
• Shutter Deflector: The easy-to-adjust circular shutter deflector allows directional spreading, providing optimal material control, while maintaining even coverage.
• Material Delivery: One of the widest in the industry, the 16½" pintle chain conveyor moves more material consistently and smoothly to help reduce bridging. Corrosion-resistant stainless steel guides provides extra protection and durability.
• Spinner: An extra large 15½" polyurethane spinner delivers a spread pattern of up to 40' and provides long-lasting, corrosion-free performance.
• Accessory Integration (dual electric motor models only): Conveniently connect accessories directly into the hub mounted in the back of the hopper. Accessories automatically integrate with the hopper control without having to run additional wires from the front of the truck.
• Dump & Work Light Switches (dual electric motor models only): Operators can safely offload material or fill walk-behind spreaders by using the rear mounted conveyor dump switches. A third switch is also provided so that an accessory work light my be conveniently controlled from not only the cab but also the rear of the hopper.
• Dual Swing Chute: The dual swing chute design opens from either side to provide easy access for maintenance or material unloading.
• Chute Assembly: For precise material application, the chute assembly can be configured for either pickup truck or flatbed and dump body applications, ensuring you're always spreading at the optimum height. An extended chute is standard on 9' and 10' models. An extension kit is available as an accessory only on 7' and 8' models. For convenient access to the hitch, the chute assembly can be removed.
• Top Screen: A steel top screen comes standard, which helps break up large chunks of de-icing material during the loading process to prevent clogging and bridging during spreader operation.
• FLEET FLEX (dual electric motor models only): The STEEL-CASTER™ hopper spreader is designed with FLEET FLEX technology for easy interchangeability between electric hopper spreaders without having to change the wiring or the controls. It provides easy operation, increased reliability, simple wiring and easy installation. Additionally, accessories automatically integrate into the control for easy plug 'n play.
