Plough blades are durable steel blades mounted on plows used to remove snow, ice, and sometimes gravel or dirt from roads and other surfaces. They are designed to withstand high wear and function in harsh weather conditions.

There are different types of plough blades, including standard steel, hardened steel, carbide-reinforced, and rubber-reinforced plough blades.

Standard steel is used for lighter snow removal.
Carbide-reinforced plough blades are highly durable and suitable for tough, long-term use.
Rubber-reinforced plough blades are ideal for delicate surfaces that need protection from scratches.

The choice depends on the type of surface being cleared and the severity of conditions.

Carbide-reinforced blades are recommended for hard and icy roads.
Rubber-reinforced blades are better for sensitive surfaces that should not be scratched.

Replacement depends on usage frequency and wear. Plough blades should be replaced when they show signs of wear, such as becoming uneven, too thin, or ineffective at scraping surfaces.
