Snow Plow Cutting Edge UHMW Plastic Poly

Protects like rubber. Cuts like steel.

UHMW is a plastic used in a variety of extreme weather applications due to its versatility, strength, and resistance. The material itself is virtually unbreakable and not affected by the extreme cold. The heavy-duty plastic has better resistance and is quieter than steel, making it more gentle on road surfaces. This is hands-down the better choice for snow plowing surfaces that you care about because it is less damaging to cobblestone and driveways. It has the added benefit of being flexible enough to not require specialized hardware to mount edges and drill bolt holes.

AVAILABLE SIZES

Technical Information:

UHMW (Ultra High Molecular Weight Polyethylene) is a machinable plastic known for durability, versatility and cost-effectiveness. It is sometimes the superior material because of its resistance to abrasion, impact, chemical, and temperature.

UHMW doesn’t require grease or oil, making it ideal when friction can pose a problem. Due to its extremely low friction coefficient, heat-generating friction is minimized resulting in smoother and quieter use versus an alternative such as steel. This self-lubricating property helps with wear and tear, extending the life of the parts.

Oversized Shipping Costs

If you order 96″ lenghts, you will incur a $150 oversized package charge no matter the state you are shipping to (this charge is factored into the price already). To avoid this charge, order two smaller lengths equal to your overall length needed.

*Please note, UHMW is sold as blanks. Pieces are not pre-drilled nor is hardware included.
