29L Walk-Behind Salt Spreader for Winter Service with 12-Inch Pneumatic Tyres
This walk-behind salt spreader for winter service is designed for controlled distribution of suitable spreading material on paths, driveways, yard areas and other paved outdoor surfaces. The spreader features a 29-litre hopper and provides a spreading width of approximately 10 to 12 ft, equivalent to around 3.05 to 3.66 metres.
During snow, ice and slippery winter conditions, larger areas often need to be treated as evenly as possible. Compared with manually throwing spreading material from a bucket, this walk-behind spreader allows more controlled distribution. The required spreading amount can be adjusted directly using the rate setting control on the handle, allowing the material flow to be adapted to the surface and current conditions.
29-Litre Hopper for Winter Maintenance
With a capacity of 29 litres, the walk-behind spreader provides sufficient volume for treating larger paths and outdoor areas without having to refill the hopper after only a short working distance. This makes it suitable for private, commercial and general winter maintenance applications.
The black spreader can be used on pavements, driveways, parking areas, company yards and around workshops or storage buildings. The spreading material is distributed through the spreading mechanism as the unit is pushed forward.
-
29-litre capacity: large hopper for suitable winter spreading material.
-
Approx. 3.05 to 3.66 m spreading width: enables wide-area distribution with each pass.
-
Handle-mounted rate control: allows the spreading amount to be adjusted during use.
-
12-inch pneumatic tyres: robust wheels for different paved and uneven surfaces.
-
Heavy-duty nylon gear: mechanical transmission for the spreading function.
-
Screen and rain cover: included as part of the spreader equipment.
Adjust the Spreading Rate Directly on the Handle
Different surfaces and weather conditions do not always require the same quantity of spreading material. Light frost may only require a smaller amount, while heavily affected icy areas may need a different setting. For this reason, the rate control is positioned directly on the handle.
This allows the material flow to be adjusted as required. The spreading material can therefore be distributed in a more controlled way instead of applying the same quantity over every part of the working area.
Wide Spreading Range for Paths and Yard Areas
The specified spreading width is 10 to 12 ft, equivalent to approximately 3.05 to 3.66 metres. This allows the spreader to cover an area considerably wider than the physical width of the unit itself.
This is particularly practical on larger yards, driveways and wider paths. The actual spreading distance can vary depending on the material used, the selected rate setting and walking speed.
Robust 12-Inch Pneumatic Tyres for Winter Use
The spreader is equipped with 12-inch pneumatic tyres. These robust wheels make it easier to push the loaded unit and are suitable for surfaces that are not completely even.
During winter, snow residue, ice, paving joints and uneven surfaces can make small wheels difficult to move. The larger pneumatic tyres provide a practical solution and improve mobility across the area being treated.
Suitable for Different Winter Service Areas
With overall dimensions of 795 mm height, 930 mm length and 535 mm width, the spreader remains compact enough for use on paths and driveways while still providing a useful 29-litre hopper and robust 12-inch wheels.
Typical applications include:
-
Footpaths: for distributing suitable spreading material during snow and icy conditions.
-
Driveways: for treating larger private or commercial access areas.
-
Parking areas: for spreading material over walking and driving zones.
-
Commercial premises: for winter maintenance around workshops, warehouses and business buildings.
-
Property paths: for distributing spreading material along longer access routes.
-
Public and commercial outdoor areas: for recurring spreading work during winter conditions.
Screen and Rain Cover for Practical Operation
A screen is included as part of the spreader equipment. It supports the material supply to the spreading mechanism and can help keep larger clumps or unsuitable coarse pieces away from the outlet area. This helps the spreading material move more consistently towards the distribution system.
A rain cover is also included. It helps protect the hopper and its contents from direct moisture from above during operation or short interruptions. This is especially useful during winter maintenance because damp spreading material can form clumps and become more difficult to distribute evenly.
Heavy-Duty Nylon Gear for the Spreading Mechanism
The spreading mechanism uses a heavy-duty nylon gear. As the spreader is pushed forward, the movement of the wheels is transferred mechanically to the spreading system. This distributes the material across the selected working width.
No electric drive is required. The spreader is completely hand-operated and is therefore suitable for areas where a motorised winter maintenance machine is unnecessary or impractical due to limited space.

Walk-Behind Spreader for More Controlled Winter Service
When salt or other suitable spreading material is applied manually, it can be difficult to cover a larger area evenly. Some sections may receive too much material while other areas receive too little. The 29-litre walk-behind spreader supports a more consistent and controlled application.
The combination of adjustable rate control, wide spreading range and large pneumatic tyres makes the unit a versatile tool for winter maintenance. It is particularly useful where paths, driveways or larger outdoor areas need to be treated regularly and where hand distribution alone would require more time and effort.
