Let’s take a look at why KAGE snow blades are the best on the market for everything from skid steers and compact track loaders to tractors, wheel loaders and telehandlers. Having built a reputation for its ability to push snow like no other, people sometimes forget that KAGE’s 2-in-1 systems can be used independently as a high performing snow blade. (You don’t have to use the containment box – even if it makes you look like a smooth operator!)
And don’t forget about KAGE’s unique reversible back blade for tractors. KAGE snow blades are everywhere and everything you need them to be.
Best Snow Blade for Skid Steers/Compact Track Loaders
The KAGE SnowFire straight blade plow offers outstanding versatility and performance. With an industry-leading 35-degree power angle in either direction, 65-degree attack angle with an 8-inch trip edge, oscillation and moldboard with durability to spare, this snow blade can do it all.
The curvature of the 10-gauge, grade 50 cold rolled steel plow face encourages the snow to roll off without sticking to imperfections in the blade. Windrow away from curbs and back drag away from buildings with confidence as the 31″-inch-long pivot frame allows you to see the edges of the blade without putting forth extra effort. 
If you need to push snow over a curb, the extra-long pivot frame also allows you to push snow further past curb lines without having to drive onto the curb. The 8-inch trip edge enables you to plow up to and over the curb without causing damage to the curb, plow or skidder operator.
KAGE SnowFire blades are available in 6-, 8-, 9-, 10- and 12-foot lengths and feature a 32-inch-tall blade.
Best Snow Blades for Tractors
The size of your tractor really determines which snow blade is best. All three of KAGE’s front snow blades offer 12 degrees of oscillation for constant contact with the plowing surface, even when angle plowing or plowing on slopes. All three also offer that 65-degree attack angle for optimal scraping. And all feature trip edges and the same cold rolled steel blade face.
For tractors weighing 5,000-15,000 pounds, the SnowFire snow blade is your best option. You’ll just want make sure to have an appropriate undercarriage mount.
For 15,000-to 30,000-lb tractors, the SnowStorm straight blade will serve you better. Not only does it provide an unmatched, 36-degree power angle, but this this blade is 36 inches tall and is available in lengths of 10-, 12-, and 14-feet.
And for those larger tractors, you’ll likely want the SnowDozer blade. Although it is factory set to a 65-degree attack angle, that attack angle and throwing pitch of the blade is adjustable. A beast of a snow blade, the SnowDozer blade is a whopping 48 inches tall and is available in 8-, 12-, 14-, 16-, 18-, and 20-foot lengths. (The 8-foot version would not have the option of adding a containment box.)
If you want a 3-point snow plow for the rear of the tractor weighing at least 9,500 pounds, you’ll want the KAGE Shadow Blade. The Shadow blade not only adds up to 6 feet of plowing width to a tractor front snow, blade, but it also gives you extra reach for bench winging and plowing back snow banks and can counter-act the crab walk effect of angle plowing heavy snow.
Best Snow Blades for Wheel Loaders
Choosing the best snow blade for a wheel loader also depends greatly on the weight of the machine. For compact wheel loaders under 15,000 lbs, stick with the SnowFire blade. For midsize front end loaders in the range of 15,000-30,000 lbs, go for the SnowStorm blade. And for large 30,000-50,000-lbs payloaders, it’s time for the SnowDozer baby!
Keep in mind that snow blades for wheel loaders need to have float. The float helps keep the front tires on the ground for steering when down pressure is applied on the blade. This is accommodated through the quick attaches. KAGE offers floating quick attaches for all three front plow blades.
