A Message from Evolution Edges
If you work in winter maintenance, you have probably heard a lot about tungsten carbide lately. Pricing, availability, lead times and supply chain concerns have become some of the biggest conversations in the snow and ice industry since the end of the 2025–2026 winter season.
Tungsten carbide has long been the standard for high-performance snowplow cutting edges because of its exceptional hardness and wear resistance. But today's market is forcing manufacturers and fleets to take a closer look at their dependence on this material.
This Is More Than a Price Increase
The current tungsten carbide situation is tied to a much larger global supply chain issue. China dominates global tungsten production, accounting for approximately 82% of mined production in 2024, according to the U.S. Geological Survey (USGS). [1]
In late 2024, the U.S. increased tariffs on several tungsten products from China to 50%, and China implemented export controls on selected tungsten products in February 2025. USGS reported that tungsten prices rose sharply throughout 2025 as a result. [1]
The impact has continued into 2026. In its first-quarter 2026 earnings conference, NOV Inc. reported that its tungsten carbide costs had increased approximately 400% since the end of 2025. [2]
That figure reflects NOV's own tungsten carbide costs—not a 400% increase across every carbide product or snowplow blade—but it illustrates the scale of the cost pressure facing manufacturers that rely on tungsten carbide.
For winter maintenance professionals, the issue goes beyond the price of a cutting edge. Rising costs and uncertain availability can affect purchasing decisions, inventory planning and the ability to have replacement blades available when they are needed most.
An Industry Crossroads
Carbide remains an excellent wear material, and we continue to manufacture carbide-equipped Sabre blades for applications where that performance is the right choice. But we also believe the current market creates an opportunity to look at alternatives.
That is why we developed the Sabre Armored Steel Blade.
Rather than simply accepting higher carbide costs, we went back to the engineering behind the Sabre platform and asked how we could create a durable, high-performance blade without tungsten carbide.
The result is a carbide-free solution designed to give fleets another option while reducing their exposure to the volatility of the tungsten market.
Introducing the Sabre Armored Steel Blade
The Sabre Armored Steel Blade is built on the patented Sabre® blade platform and combines a 3/4-inch 1020 steel blade body with a fully welded 3/4-inch Hardox® 450 armored wear plate. Built with bulletproof tested materials, the Sabre Armored Steel Blade is engineered for demanding applications where strength and durability matter.
Hardox® 450 provides the hardness and abrasion resistance needed for demanding winter applications, while the fully welded construction creates a durable, integrated wear system. The design delivers measurable performance advantages over standard steel, including twice the hardness, 70% greater tensile strength and 140% greater yield strength. It also incorporates built-in wear indicators and eliminates the need for tungsten carbide inserts.
The result is a blade designed around cost predictability, material independence and long-term fleet planning—without requiring fleets to rely on a material whose price and availability are increasingly difficult to predict.
.
Carbide Isn't the Only Answer
We are not suggesting that every fleet should replace carbide. Different roads, equipment and operating conditions require different solutions, and carbide remains the right choice for many applications. That is why the Sabre family offers multiple options.
The Sabre Armored Carbide Blade combines carbide inserts with a Hardox® 450 armored cover plate for fleets that want the benefits of carbide wear technology.
The Sabre Armored Steel Blade provides a carbide-free alternative for fleets looking for greater cost predictability and less exposure to the current tungsten market.
The right answer depends on the application, and having options allows fleets to choose the technology that makes the most sense for their operation.
Plan Before Winter Arrives
The current carbide market has taught our industry an important lesson: material availability and pricing cannot always be taken for granted. Now is the time for fleets to evaluate their blade strategy before the next winter season begins. Look at your current carbide usage, replacement intervals, annual blade costs and operating conditions, and consider where carbide provides a meaningful advantage and where an engineered carbide-free solution could do the job.
For some applications, carbide will remain the right choice. For others, the Sabre Armored Steel Blade may provide a practical alternative. At Evolution Edges, we believe innovation means giving winter maintenance professionals more options, not fewer. The current market has created uncertainty, but it has also created an opportunity to rethink what is possible. The Sabre Armored Steel Blade is our answer: a carbide-free solution built for the road ahead.
Ready to Rethink Your Blade Strategy?
If your fleet is facing rising carbide costs, uncertain availability or simply wants to explore a carbide-free alternative, we'd welcome the opportunity to talk through your application.

Highway departments across the country face the formidable task of maintaining safe and navigable roads during the winter months. One key aspect of achieving efficient snow removal on highways is the proper care and maintenance of snow plow blades. The cutting edge blade of a snow plow is the frontline defender against snow and ice accumulation on highways. It is crucial to recognize the impact blades have on overall plowing efficiency and road safety.
Here are some key tips to consider:
- Choose the Right Plow Blade Material:
Selecting the appropriate material is paramount. High-quality materials such as carbide or hardened steel offer superior durability and resistance to wear. Investing in durable cutting edges ensures longevity and reduces the frequency of replacements, contributing to cost-effectiveness. - Match Plow Blade to Road Surface:
Different road surfaces may require specific types of plow blades. Consider the composition of the highways under your jurisdiction – asphalt, concrete, or gravel – and choose blades that are designed to minimize damage to the road while effectively removing snow and ice. - Regular Inspection Protocols:
Establish a comprehensive inspection routine for snow plow blades. Regularly check for signs of wear, damage, or uneven wear patterns. Inspections should be conducted both before the winter season begins and at regular intervals during the season to identify potential issues early on. - Monitor Plowing Conditions:
Adjust plow blade maintenance based on prevailing plowing conditions. Heavy, wet snow, or prolonged use may accelerate wear, necessitating more frequent inspections and potential replacements. Stay attuned to weather forecasts and adjust your maintenance schedule accordingly. - Implement a Preventive Maintenance Program:
Develop and implement a preventive maintenance program for plow blades. Regularly replace plow blades as part of routine maintenance, even if visible wear is not immediately apparent. This proactive approach ensures that they are always in optimal condition.
How often should you change snow plow blades?
Determining the frequency of blade replacements is crucial for maintaining efficient snow removal operations. While the ideal replacement interval can vary based on factors such as climate, snowfall frequency, and road conditions, here are some general guidelines:
- Seasonal Replacements:
As a standard practice, consider replacing traditional cutting edges at least once per season. This can help mitigate wear and tear caused by consistent use throughout the winter months. Some blades, such as our Sabre armored carbide blade, have a longer wear life, so this is a case-by-case basis. - Mid-Season Inspections:
Conduct mid-season inspections to assess the condition of plow blades. If significant wear is observed, consider replacing the blades at this point to ensure optimal performance for the remainder of the season. - Adjust Based on Usage:
The frequency of blade replacements should be adjusted based on the intensity of use. Highways experiencing heavy snowfall or those with more frequent plowing requirements may necessitate more frequent replacements to maintain peak efficiency. - Prioritize Safety:
Prioritize safety considerations when determining the replacement frequency. If plow blades show signs of excessive wear that compromise their effectiveness, it is crucial to replace them promptly to avoid compromising road safety.
Effective snow removal on highways demands meticulous attention to snow plow blade maintenance. It is important to prioritize choosing the right materials, implement regular inspections, and establish a proactive maintenance program. By adhering to these snow plow blade tips and tailoring the replacement frequency to specific conditions, you can ensure that your snow plow fleets operate at peak efficiency, keeping highways safe and accessible throughout the winter months.
