No Longer Just Liquid – Introducing Artex Spreaders
Since the 1970’s we have been living and breathing liquid manure equipment but with the new year we’re introducing Artex manure spreaders to our lineup. While looking for what type of solid spreaders to bring into our product line, we didn’t want the run of the mill, every day manure spreader. We wanted something that endures whatever the job throws at it (even if that includes a random Geo Metro; watch the video below). Nevertheless, that is exactly what we did. Without further ado, meet Artex spreaders!
Why Artex spreaders?
Other than the fact they completely pulverized a Geo Metro, here are some other reasons Artex spreaders are pretty cool:
Twin Vertical Beaters
Artex upped the ante with their twin vertical beaters throwing a path up to 60 feet wide.
- Fewer passes in the field
- Most durable augers
- Shear-bolt protection with overrunning clutch for smooth shutdown
Unbeatable Undercarriage
- More steel for maximum wear
- Thicker steel for maximum life
- Floor slats just 9″ apart
- The strongest chain
- The best gearbox
- Hand-made construction
- Only spreader with spring suspension
Best Built Frame
- 10-gauge steel
- Every possible structural reinforcement
Guillotine Gate
Artex spreaders work at the rate you want with complete control over the position of the hydraulic gate.
- Precision farming-spread as little or as much as you would like
- Leave the gate low for controlled throw and max usage
- Raise the gate for higher spread levels
Articulating Hitch
- Superior durability
- Greater give during loading
- No cracking
- Less maintenance
HMW Flooring
Built for ultimate durability:
- Super slide solid poly floor
- The thickest substrate in the industry
