When I say that stainless steel snow plows are designed to be durable, I refer to its resistance of rust and repel sticking snow in a better way than the conventional snowplows.
Main Snowplow Feature Differences
| Material | Pros | Cons | ||
| Poly | Wear and corrosion resistant; | Snow rarely sticks; | More expensive; | Weigh more once hooked up due to heavy framework; |
| Steel | Less costly than alternatives; | Effective and convenient in matching older plows; | Rusts after a lengthy duration of use; | Prone to noisy rattling; |
| Stainless steel | Superior corrosion resistance and slickness;
Relatively lightweight; |
Prone to dents and cracks, especially in areas with rocks, gravel, and stumps. |
Construction and Design of Snow Plows
Straight Plows
Straight snowplows enable a truck operator to make all passes away from buildings.
When operating with straight plows one should always avoid angling the blade toward a building.
V Plows
The most common use of V snowplows is when operators are making the initial snow breakthrough.
