The Tyler Ice 4K-AD is a heavy-duty, high-capacity airport deicer designed to meet the rigorous demands of North American airfield winter operations. With a massive 4,000-gallon glycol capacity, this truck reduces return trips for refilling, optimising turnaround time during critical deicing windows. Its dual boom system ensures broad, uniform application with precision-controlled spray heads and side nozzles to handle complex ramp geometries.
