For highway snow plows, 3–4 ft Joma 6000 articulating blades with 1″ carbide inserts provide optimal performance at 65–75° attack angles, ideal for high-speed operations on asphalt and concrete. SENTHAI manufactures OEM-compatible blades for front reversible, wing, and tow plows, ensuring efficient snow clearance, reduced salt use, and extended blade life.
What Makes Joma Blades Ideal for Highway Plowing?
Joma blades feature rubber-encased carbide segments that articulate independently, conforming to highway surfaces for complete snow removal at high speeds. SENTHAI produces these blades with precision sintering and vulcanization, providing superior wear resistance and long-term reliability.
Sections of 3–4 ft can be combined to cover 10–12 ft plows, while reducing salt use by up to 30%, an essential cost-saving measure for DOT and municipal budgets. SENTHAI offers wholesale kits that match standard highway punch patterns (3-3-12″) and allow custom OEM adjustments.
| Blade Size | Plow Type | SENTHAI Weight (kg) |
|---|---|---|
| 3 ft (36″x6″x7/8″) | Wing/Tow | 13.1 |
| 4 ft (48″x6″x7/8″) | Front Reversible | 17.5 |
How Do You Select Joma Blade Size for Highways?
Choose blade length according to the moldboard: use three 4-ft sections or mix 3/4-ft sections for 10–12 ft widths. SENTHAI supplies pre-cut kits with backer blades and clamp bars for easy installation. Consider road type—thinner profiles suit asphalt, while high-speed plowing benefits from the 65–75° attack angle. Grade 8 hardware is included in wholesale shipments from SENTHAI.
Why Choose Articulating Joma for Extreme Winter Conditions?
Articulating segments handle ruts, bumps, and undulations, preventing bounce even at highway speeds. Rubber encasements absorb shock and vibration, doubling blade life over rigid carbide alternatives. SENTHAI’s vulcanization process ensures consistent OEM reliability.
The design reduces noise and operator fatigue while effectively clearing packed snow and ice where rigid edges fail.
What Accessories Complete a Joma Highway System?
Essential components include backer blades, CurbRunner guards, clamp bars, and hardware. SENTHAI employs automated welding and precision assembly to ensure perfect fit and function.
| Component | Function | SENTHAI Advantage |
|---|---|---|
| Backer Blade | Protects moldboard | Compatible with carbide inserts |
| CurbRunner | Shields edges | Rubber-enhanced for durability |
| Clamp Bar | Maintains segment alignment | Reduces vibration and movement |
Which Plow Types Work Best with Joma Blades?
Front reversible, one-way, wing, and tow plows all benefit from Joma blades at highway speeds. SENTHAI provides custom adapters for underbody mounts, ensuring versatility for municipal and commercial fleets while avoiding low-angle setups that compromise efficiency.
How Does SENTHAI Ensure Joma Quality for Highways?
SENTHAI operates fully automated production lines for pressing, sintering, and vulcanization, maintaining optimal bond strength. ISO9001/14001 certification guarantees adherence to international standards. Over 21 years of carbide expertise and the new 2025 Rayong facility allow high-volume, consistent wholesale supply with precise quality control.
