Unique Features
- Plow Blade Construction: The rugged moldboard is 29" tall and comes in 11-gauge powder coated steel in 7' 6", 8', and 8' 6" widths. It is also available in 3/8" high-density polyethylene* in 7' 6" and 8' widths. The durable poly blade provides a slick surface for enhanced snow-rolling action and a maintenance-free surface. A 60-degree attack angle delivers balanced, clean-scraping performance, and a high carbon steel cutting edge comes standard to reduce wear and extend the life of the blade. *A rubber snow deflector comes standard on the poly version.
- Structural Reinforcement: Seven vertical ribs provide structural reinforcement for exceptional torsional strength and rigidity to eliminate blade twisting. The high-strength steel base channel provides extra support along the bottom of the plow blade. The 1" diameter pivot bolt secures the plow in place, ensuring proper alignment and reducing stress on the overall plow assembly.
- Reliable Hydraulics: We manufacture our own hydraulic components to ensure the highest standards of quality and reliability, so that you get a hydraulics system that’s not only fast and responsive, but that’s built to last season after season. Fully enclosed components are protected from the elements.
- Trip Protection: Four heavy-duty coil springs protect your plow and truck by allowing the whole blade to trip when striking obstacles. The shock absorber reduces jarring and softens the blade return when tripping occurs, to extend the life of your truck and plow.
- Shoe Kit: Protect your plow and the road, while extending the life of your cutting edge with an adjustable shoe kit. The cast iron construction and shape increases the surface contact area and helps glide over gravel and dirt at the correct height. Extending cutting edge and base angle life when plowing on rocky or abrasive surfaces.
- 10" Rubber Deflector: Control the snow and always see where you’re going with optional deflectors. Our 2-ply rubber snow deflectors include bolt-on steel plates to ensure proper positioning of the deflectors to keep your view clear and clean. *This is standard for 7’6" and 8' poly models. * Sold separately for 7’6", 8', and 8’6" steel models.
