Winter Equipment introduced its new Xtendor® Universal plow guard designed to fit Boss® snow plows along with most Douglas Dynamic (Fisher®, Western®, and SnowEx), Meyer®, and SnowDogg® snow plows. Some exceptions may apply depending on the cutting edge hole pattern.
The design enables the guard to protect against premature and uneven wear typically experienced on curb edges and corners. Because of this, it features high-quality Winter® Carbide Matrix™ filled hard surfacing in the bottom pockets. Its proprietary A22 steel alloy one-piece casting allows for easy installation and promotes the wear life throughout the entire guard.
The Xtendor Universal has a horizontal slotted punch pattern that provides flexibility to fit a range of snow plow manufacturers. Therefore, those fleets using multiple manufacturers have the ability to order and inventory one guard that universally fits all.
WHY PLOW GUARDS
Snow channels on the guard’s front bottom create a surface that breaks up and vertically directs hard packed snow. The guard’s center “W” design reduces weight. It also allows it to be welded directly to the blade with decreased lateral movement as a result.
“Our Xtendor Universal fills the void for contractors and fleet owners with Boss plows,” says Kent Winter, founder and CEO of Winter Equipment. “Plow guards provide incredible protection and efficiency by substantially extending guard and blade life. Having a guard that is flexible for use on multiple plow manufacturers is an additional efficiency.”
Intended for use on city streets and parking lots, Xtendor Universal plow guards reduce uneven and premature wear and help to eliminate in-season blade changes, which reduces downtime and increases contractor productivity.
Additionally, the Xtendor Universal plow guard is 6-inches tall, 21-inches long, and 1.5-inches deep. It comes ready to mount with all parts and hardware and ships free. It can be ordered through Winter’s distributor system or through the website, winterequipment.com/shop/contractor/xtendor-plowguards.
