Urethane Snow Plow Bumpers – Snow Plow Bumpers

Urethane snow plow bumpers have been attached to plow trucks and ATV’s for decades to eliminate metal on metal contact and prevent slamming while providing some vibration protection and shock resistance to the equipment. Urethane snow plow bumpers are typically made from a solid urethane in a low-cost mold that is customized to fit any piece of equipment by water jetting holes or slots into the urethane bumper to fit OEM factory bolt locations.

Frequently we will cast urethane molds from an OEM existing snow plow bumper to reproduce factory bumpers with greater physical properties than original parts. Any hardness is also available while 70A is the most common hardness for urethane snow plow bumpers. The 70A material is slightly harder than a car tire with very low rebound properties for maximum shock absorption. Plan Tech also has the ability to produce molds that will yield parts in high volume with a rapid turn around.

 

A heavy steel core may be molded into the bumper for bolt-on applications to provide additional strength. Plan Tech has a unique ability to tailor our raw material with additives that will enhance wear properties and add lubricity that is resistant to both rust and corrosion damage. Urethane is also non-marking with a noticeable noise reduction vs. other similar materials which is ideal for snow removal. We have the ability to reverse engineer existing parts to be able to produce replacement parts frequently costing less the OEM equipment with physical properties often times greater than the original bumper.

 

Our engineering department can turn your idea, sketch, drawing or CAD file into urethane snow plow bumpers. We will reverse engineer to recreate any urethane part for production or one-off urethane pieces. The engineering department utilizes SolidWorks and our machine shop uses CamWorksfor 3 axis milling. Our equipment includes CNC mills, lathes, polyurethane grinders as well as a state of the art urethane waterjet cutting machine.
