Western 49089 – 8′ Steel Cutting Edge Kit – Pro-Plow (Includes Bolt Kit)

The genuine Western 49089 Cutting Edge Kit serves as the primary sacrificial wear component bolted along the bottom base angle of the plow moldboard. Engineered explicitly for Western 8-foot Pro-Plow® straight blade snowplows, this factory-original high-carbon steel edge handles continuous pavement contact and severe scraping abrasion. Commercial snow contractors and fleet mechanics install this replacement cutting edge to ensure clean scraping performance down to bare asphalt, preventing the structural base angle of the moldboard from grinding against the ground and causing permanent structural damage.

This original equipment manufacturer kit features a high-tensile carbon steel wear bar measuring 1/2 inch in thickness and 6 inches in height, providing exceptional rigidity and longevity under intense commercial winter clearing operations. Because it matches original factory blueprints precisely, it features a factory-punched bolt hole configuration that aligns perfectly with the plow’s base angle paths, ensuring a flush mounting alignment without custom modification or drilling. The package comes complete with a high-strength structural bolt kit, containing all required carriage bolts and locknuts to execute a complete hardware refresh in the shop.

For professional fleet operators and shop supervisors, executing a timely cutting edge replacement preserves the original operational geometry of the plow and prevents blade chatter or uneven wear. The uniform steel construction delivers consistent downward pressure across the entire 96-inch width of the plowing lane, maximizing efficiency during heavy parking lot clearing or long street passes. Installing this authentic factory wear component ensures your straight blade tracks true and remains fully dependable throughout rigorous winter blizzards.
