    Muck & Slurry

    New Hi-Spec dribble bar launched for accurate slurry placement

    Hi-Spec Engineering has extended the range of slurry application equipment with the introduction of a new chassis mounted dribble bar.

    It offers a working width of 7.5m, folding down to just 2.55m for transport, and features 30 flat hose outlets spaced at 25cm. The flow of the product is via a Hi-Spec distributor with an integrated stone trap.

    The frame is fully galvanised and is fitted with an LED lightbar for safe transport. Each of the arms incorporates a sprung breakback mechanism to prevent any damage to the arm in the event of a collision.

    Overall weight is just 520kg and the applicator is chassis mounted, which has the benefit of placing the weight closer to the tanker axle and avoiding stress on the tanker barrel or rear door.

    The design includes a splash plate with a six-inch feed and two blanked off six-inch filling points for optimum functionality. It only requires a single double-acting spool valve and is operated using a diverter control to switch between lifting and lowering the arms and operating the distributor and gate valve.
