Snow is symbolic of the winter season. For those who live in areas that do not see a lot of snow, it is a chance for them to go to the snowy parts of the state and experience the joys of skiing and snowboarding. As fun as snow can be, however, it does bring with it a slight problem. Those who live in areas that see regular snow will know the importance of having a snowplow. These machines are needed to plow away all the built-up snow on streets, parking lots, and more. That is why Rubber-Cal offers snow plow rubber blades for use on various plow machines. One particular type of rubber cutting edge that we offer is made of skirtboard rubber that possesses a tensile strength of 1500 PSI. If you need to plow away snow from larger areas like highways and airport runways, then this durable cutting edge rubber blade is the perfect part for your snowplow machine!
High Tensile Strength: Tensile strength is defined as the amount of stress and pressure that a material can take before it fails or breaks. These plow parts have a tensile strength rating of 1500 PSI, which makes them very durable. They can take a higher level of abuse than their 725 PSI counterpart, which means that they are less prone to breaking. Although these are wear parts that will need to be replaced over time, their superior durability gives them a longer overall lifespan than other types of blades made from polyurethane. If you need tough snow plow rubber, then this product is the perfect choice for you!
Good for Commercial Use: These rubber plow parts are great for larger-scale commercial projects. They are popular for use in areas like highways, commercial strip centers, airport runways, and large parking lots. The existing surfaces of these areas are very important. They have to be as even as possible. Even a little bit of damage can compromise their safety or aesthetic value. This type of rubber cutting edge is perfect for these types of snowplow applications because the rubber is gentler on surfaces than metal and polyurethane blades. Although they are not meant to be outright replacements for the existing metal parts, they help to keep the metal away from sensitive surfaces.
Custom Drilling: One of the benefits of having these snow plow rubber pieces is that they can be drilled with holes or lots according to your specifications. Different snowplow vehicles may have different mounting parts, so we make this rubber cutting edge available with the option to have installation slots drilled into them. This way, when you get your cutting edge rubber blade, you can immediately mount it onto your snowplow vehicle and get to work!
More Benefits:
Available in two gauges: 1” and 1.5” and a variety of widths (rubber cutting edge height)
Plow parts also available in 725 PSI and 2000 PSI
Can operate in cold temperatures as low as -20° F
Far quieter during operation than their metal blade counterparts
Skirtboard rubber gives this snow plow rubber excellent resistance to weathering
Description:
1500 PSI Rubber blades exhibit excellent abrasion resistance, hence are an excellent for commercial use. Rubber blades are flexible and elastic, therefore absorb impact, shock, and conform easily to the road surface. Rubber will reduce damage to the plow surface, making it the ideal choice for use on concrete, parking garages, brick, pavers, cobblestone, or any other uneven surface.
