What comes with the Tank Spreader?
Each Tank Spreader comes packaged with a frame, tank, and a Spreader Roller.

Is it possible to control the Tank Spreader’s rate of flow?
Absolutely—and without a bunch of knobs, levers, and dials to complicate the process and cause breakdowns. Our Tank Spreaders are gravity-fed, which means the larger the holes, the more material will flow. As you’re applying material, watch the running puddle in front of the roller. If the puddle disappears, your flow isn’t optimized. Simply enlarge a few of the center-most holes on the tank, 1/16” at a time, to increase your application speed—and your productivity.

Can I put hot tar in my Tank Spreader?
We don’t recommend using our Tank Spreaders for tar applications.

How do I clean the tank on my Tank Spreader?
Most materials, such as acrylic, silicone, or urethane, won’t stick to the polyethylene tank. Open the drain hole on the back of the tank, and pour leftover materials into a pail. Then, after any remaining material cures, simply peel it from the tank. (To make clean-up fast and easy on future jobs, spray tank surfaces with silicone before each use.) Solvent-based materials may not peel out, so we’ve made our tanks easy to replace; simply spin a couple of wingnuts, and clean-up is done.

Can I purchase replacement tanks for my Tank Spreader?
Yes. Replacement tanks are available. Switching to a new tank is as easy as spinning two wing nuts.

What’s the best way to maintain the tires on my Tank Spreader?
Cover your Tank Spreader tires with Teflon tape so you can easily peel away any build-up.

Why are there two screws in the holes at the end of the tank?
We recommend using the screws to close the two end holes of the tank in these situations:

  • When you’re applying coating and wish to diminish the running puddle at the ends of the roller
  • When you’re applying bonding adhesive, which doesn’t require a running puddle

What’s the difference between a Tank Spreader and a Better Spreader?

  • Better Spreaders are appropriate for adhesive work only; Tank Spreaders can be used with both adhesives and coatings.
  • Tank Spreaders have a hopper with ¼” holes located 1” on center. Better Spreaders hold 5-gallon pails of material above a roller. To release the material, you punch a row of holes in the side of each pail.
  • Both Tank Spreaders and Better Spreaders are available in SingleWide (14”) and DoubleWide (27”) models; only Tank Spreaders are available in 40” width.

Do you have something that will apply beads of material rather than a spread?
Yes! We offer 14″ and 40″ Bead Applicators. The holes that dispense beads of liquid adhesive can be placed according to your needs.
