ustintec Shave Plate Scraper Bar

This shave plate is designed for 28-inch two-stage snowblowers manufactured by MTD from 1992 and newer. Before purchasing, verify your snowblower's model number and check it against the OEM part numbers listed in your owner's manual to ensure compatibility.

The installation is straightforward and generally requires only basic hand tools like a wrench and socket set. Since it is a direct replacement part, you simply remove the worn plate and bolt the new one into the existing mounting holes.

Snowblower components are constantly exposed to moisture, salt, and abrasive ice, which accelerate corrosion. The powder-coated finish acts as a protective barrier, significantly extending the lifespan of the steel plate by preventing rust.

You should replace your shave plate if you notice the bottom edge has worn down unevenly, is jagged, or if the snowblower is no longer clearing snow cleanly down to the pavement. If the plate is worn enough that the auger housing itself is beginning to scrape the ground, replace it immediately to prevent permanent damage to your machine.

No, this package includes only the shave plate itself. You should plan to reuse your existing mounting bolts and nuts, provided they are not rusted or damaged during removal.
