Buyers Products 1301235 Cutting Edge for Snowplow , Black

What It Is

The Buyers Products 1301235 is a heavy-duty, 7-foot-wide cutting edge (also called a scraper blade) for snowplows. It’s designed to replace worn blades on pickup truck, UTV, or commercial snowplows, providing a fresh, sharp steel edge to scrape compacted snow and ice from pavement.

Fitment & Compatibility

Before buying, verify three things:

• Mounting hole pattern: This edge uses a 7/8” hole diameter on 6-inch centers. Measure your existing blade’s hole spacing and bolt size—if yours uses a different pattern (e.g., 1/2” holes on 4-inch centers), it won’t fit.
• Blade length: The 1301235 is 84 inches (7 feet) long. Your plow’s moldboard must be exactly 7 feet wide, or you’ll need to cut or accept overhang. Measure your plow’s cutting edge mounting surface, not the overall width.
• Brand/model compatibility: Aftermarket fit for most straight-blade plows (e.g., Western, Fisher, SnowEx, Boss, Meyer) that accept a standard 7-foot edge. Not for V-plows or plows with curved/winged edges. Check your plow’s manual for OEM part number cross-reference.

Key Things to Know

• Material: Carbide-tipped steel—lasts 3-5x longer than standard steel edges on pavement, but will chatter on uneven surfaces. Not for gravel or dirt (carbide tips will chip).
• Installation: Moderate difficulty. You’ll need a helper (blade weighs ~65 lbs), a socket set, and penetrating oil for rusted bolts. Expect 30-60 minutes. No drilling or cutting required if hole pattern matches.
• Common gotcha: The edge is reversible—when one side wears, flip it to double life. But the carbide tips are directional; install with the bevel facing forward (away from the plow) for proper scraping.
• Price vs. value: At $264.60, it’s mid-range. Cheaper plain steel edges ($80–120) wear faster; premium carbide edges ($350+) add more tungsten. This is a solid middle ground for moderate use.

Should You Buy It

Buy this if you plow paved driveways or lots regularly (10+ times per season) and want a durable edge that won’t need replacement every year. Skip it if you plow gravel, need a precise OEM match for an unusual plow, or only plow a few times per season—a standard steel edge will save you money and frustration.
