BOSS VBX Spreaders are some of the most powerful tools in your snow- and ice-removal arsenal. Our fast-growing family of VBX spreaders are fully featured for ease of use and maximum productivity for years of operation in harsh winter conditions. The newest addition to the lineup is the VBX 6500, which performs just as powerfully and reliably as the others in a mid-sized package. The VBX family features models with both pintle and auger feeds, powerful electric motors, standard work lights, easy-to-use controls and the flexibility to spread a variety of deicing materials. All of this backed by the quality, durability and service BOSS has built its reputation on.
