Snow Plows

The most basic and widely used type of snow plows on the market. Straight blade snow plows are ideal for clearing large open areas such as driveways, parking lots and roadways. Oftentimes, a straight blade snow plow can be a more affordable option that still provides a great deal of functionality for your snow and ice operations.

A more versatile option than a straight plow due to its ability to be adjusted into different angles and variations like scoops and straight blades. Due to their adjustability, v-plows are ideal for municipalities and professional snow and ice companies needing to clear a wide variety of spaces.

These smaller plows are typically affixed to the side of the of existing front plows, truck beds or many other types of vehicles to create a wider plowing path. If you’re looking for maximum snow-clearing capability in instances like large parking lots, airports and more, we can help find the solution for you.

Designed to be attached to the rear of a heavy-duty vehicle, rear mounted plows or back blades can be used to push or pull snow. Many of these have wide hydraulic wings to allow them to be used for capturing snow or pushing snow away, which gives them a great deal of versatility.

Underbody snow plows, or also known as scrapers, are primarily used in medium-duty trucks and vehicles to scrape surfaces and clear packed snow and ice. They are commonly used by municipalities and professional snow removal companies for maintaining roadways and preventing ice buildup.

Many municipalities and highway departments operate a fleet of varying types of snow and ice equipment. From vehicles large or small, these municipalities will use straight blades, v-plows, wing plows and everything in between to clear the roadways in their district. Knapheide and its partners have years of experience in these types of upfits.
