PU wing

The APV snow plough wing is made of durable PU with good chemical and corrosion resistance and excellent abrasion and wear characteristics. It can be used with different types and volumes of snow. The single full-length PU plough wing is patented. Together with the high-strength steel frame and the reinforced ribs inside the frame, the plough wing is resistant to extreme longitudinal and lateral forces, creating a major safety factor and long product lifecycle. Its flexible structure and sharp edge ensure a perfect cleaning result. Thanks to the suspension, the plough follows the road surface, which ensures a perfect cleaning result and minimises the use of de-icing agents. The wing's support elements open due to the snow load and change the shape of the wing into a diagonal to increase the ploughing capacity. 

Lifting & swivelling device

A compact and strong design with short overhang ensures a low front axle load. The ploughs turning device allows vertical alignment to the runway surface. A rubber damper minimizes the impact of swivelling and ploughing forces. The locking pin, which can be easily operated by hydraulically from the cab, secures the position of the plough. The indicator for the locking pin (open/locked) shows the status and can be seen from the cab.

Snow visor

The snow visor continues the wing cylinder shape. It helps to roll snow inside the wing and eject it fast using aerodynamic forces. This prevents snow obscuring the driver’s windscreen and mirrors, making ploughing safe and comfortable.
A stainless steel snow handling plate with integrated warning marks improves snow rotation in the wing still further to keep it clear.

Mounting plates

The APV has a variety of different attachments for different markets so that it can operate effectively with a wide variety of trucks.

  • Quick connection (Volvo BM)
  • Ko-3446 standard (FI, RU)
  • PSB attachment
  • DIN EN 15432 standard (SE, VV-95)
  • Vegvesen (NO) on request

Working support devices

The castor wheels ensure precise adjustment of the snow plough and provide appropriate aggressiveness during snow clearing. They support the frame when driving over obstacles and extend the service life of the cutting edge. The storage legs with FOD safety design for everyday use can be fitted and removed quickly and easily.
