Ignite Attachments has released a new angle broom attachment for skid steers and compact track loaders. The attachment’s 22.5-in. operating height offers visibility of the work area.
Features such as a fully reversible drum with individually replaceable polycarbonate bristle wafers, zinc-coated pins and drum carrier components and a motor-protecting guard facilitates safe operation. The angle broom is available in working widths of 72 or 84 in. with a manual or hydraulic angling option and universal harness, catering to the working requirements of landscapers, snow removal and construction professionals, government and municipal organizations and more.
“When we launched Ignite Attachments as a disruptor to the stagnant attachment industry, we weren’t just focused on price or accessibility—we were concerned with functionality as well,” said Trisha Pearson, business director for Ignite Attachments. “An angle broom is a simple yet essential tool for so many compact equipment operators. The challenge was how to take this attachment to the next level in terms of efficiency and cost effectiveness. Our engineers have delivered!”
Design
A low operating height allows for sightlines in front and to the sides of the attachment for operation in tight spaces or near structures.
“Our team worked closely with parks and rec managers and landscape professionals to identify key pain points with current angle broom options,” said Pearson. “A better view of the area you’re sweeping was a major concern across the board. Our angle broom is significantly lower than what is currently available on the market.”
Ingnite’s low-profile angle broom uses 24-in. diameter polycarbonate bristle wafers which hold up on sidewalks and other abrasive surfaces. Additionally, the entire drum can be removed with just a few bolts, allowing operators to rotate it 180 degrees for even wear across the whole broom. Wafers can also be individually replaced.
Versatility
The Ignite angle broom also features integration with various carrier brands and overall attachment durability. Both widths allow for a 25-degree maximum angle from the center. With the hydraulic option, the angle broom comes with a universal harness that works with several compact track loader or skid steer brands. A motor guard offers additional protection for components when working in confined spaces and close to structures. The angle broom also comes standard with flat-faced couplers and full nylon hose sleeves.
“Striking a balance between quality and value is important when it comes to attachment investment,” said Pearson. “All Ignite attachments feature laser-cut steel for a precise fit and we use top-notch components that are user-friendly and long lasting. It’s part of our commitment—right fit, right price, right now.”
