About the Falköping K-60 wheelbarrow spreader
The world's best wheelbarrow – the only one that gets lighter the further you walk. The K-60 empties as you spread, so the cart gets lighter with every metre.
The Falköping K-60 is a manual gritting cart, a hand-pulled sand and salt spreader for pavements, footpaths and other smaller areas. The hopper holds 60 litres, and the spreader weighs 31 kg. It spreads sand, fine gravel, salt and calcium chloride over a width of 0.6 metres, with a spread rate of 80–400 g/m² for sand and 10–30 g/m² for salt. With a full hopper, the manufacturer states a range of approximately 1 km with sand and 4 km with salt.
The low centre of gravity makes the spreader easy to manoeuvre, and spreading can be engaged and disengaged separately. It spreads just as well backwards as forwards and can also be used as an ordinary wheelbarrow. The wheel is 4.00x6, 4 ply. The surface is treated with primer and 2-component topcoat. Dimensions according to the manufacturer's dimension drawing are 1270, 790, 530 and 670 mm.
