Smith Metal Works of Newark, Inc. was founded as a steel fabrication business that specializes in welding, fabrication, and machining. While general industrial repairs and custom fabrication remains a large portion of their business it was recognized that, to expand sales, it would be necessary to add a product line.
An opportunity arose to enter an ice control equipment line by producing the patented Harder Dump Box Spreader insert for dump trucks within their facilities. Quickly, after that, Smith realized that all-stainless salt spreaders were the direction the market was heading.

SPREADERS & DUMP BODIES
A progressive step for Smith Metal Works was the introduction of electric-powered pickup spreaders to replace the cantankerous gas engine powered units that had been the norm. Further development of electric motors in all versions and sizes of salt spreaders is gradually replacing hydraulic motor and gasoline engine power. A new-patented conveyor mechanism is “in the works” for future applications.
