Types of tungsten carbide snow plow blade

Snow plow blade have higher requirements for their working environment, and tungsten carbide snow plow blade have excellent wear resistance and durability. They can play their greatest advantages in the snow removal industry and bring convenience to snow removal operations. snow plow blade can be divided into 4 types according to their specific design and manufacturing methods:

Insert-type tungsten carbide snow plow blade

This type of snow plow blade consists of a steel base plate and a tungsten carbide insert. The insert is usually fixed to the steel plate by brazing or welding. The tungsten carbide insert provides extremely high wear resistance and scratch performance, while the steel base plate provides sufficient strength and durability. When the insert is worn, the insert can be replaced separately to extend the service life of the snow plow blade.

Full tungsten carbide snow plow blade

This type of snow plow blade is made entirely of tungsten carbide, usually formed by powder metallurgy or machining. Full tungsten carbide snow plow blade have extremely high hardness and wear resistance, and are suitable for use in extremely harsh road conditions, such as areas with severe ice and snow coverage or when long-term use is required.

Tungsten carbide tip snow plow blade 

This design is similar to the insert snow plow blade, but uses a smaller tungsten carbide tip or a small tungsten carbide insert fixed to a steel base. This design retains the strength and flexibility of the steel base and provides the wear resistance of tungsten carbide, which is suitable for scenes with high requirements for snow plow blade scraping effect.

Hybrid tungsten carbide alloy snow plow blade

Some manufacturers may offer a hybrid design that combines the advantages of different materials, such as a combination of a steel base and a partial tungsten carbide insert. This design can provide good wear resistance and performance while keeping the cost relatively reasonable.

Choosing the right type of tungsten carbide snow plow blade depends on the specific application needs, including road conditions, budget, frequency of use, and the required wear resistance and scraping performance.
