Hilltip Adds SnowStriker Plows
Hilltip announced its new SnowStriker VTR snowplows, designed for compact tractors and loaders. The manufacturer says it built the new plows with heavy-duty box construction to withstand harsh winter conditions.
Available in six models ranging from 5.5 to 8.6 feet wide, VTR snowplows have a curved, powder-coated snow blade to create an optimal snow-rolling effect. The blades are made of high-strength steel, helping to make the plows light, yet durable.
The plows’ adjustable, two-segment cutting edges have trip springs for plow protection. The cutting edges are available in polyurethane or high-strength steel. And the segments compress independently when they hit obstacles.
With their adjustable attack angle, the VTR snowplows allow operators to adapt to different plowing surfaces and weather conditions. Additionally, the blade tilts and oscillates up to six degrees when plowing on uneven ground, producing a cleaner scrape.
A variety of custom mounts are available, including a three-point hitch, multi-car/multi-mobile plate or custom mounting plate with hooks. The v-plows are equipped with double-acting hydraulic cylinders for added versatility.
Options include LED edge markers, a poly snow deflector, plow shoe kits and electric valve. The plows come standard in the color gray, but are also available in orange for improved visibility.
