P500 PVC pipe on plow for gravel driveway?

[bowhunterbill]

I saw this idea on another forum. Has anybody tried it on their UTV plow?

Get a 3” ID thick wall pvc pipe, cut a slot, fill with insulation foam to keep it from moving. I know an electrical contractor who has told me to help myself to the electrical conduit cutoffs he stacks outside.

I have 250 yards of gravel driveway and a large gravel area in front of the 3 car garage, and every spring I need to clean up gravel from where I push the snow. The 2 round pieces on the bottom of my plow may work on asphalt, but not so much on gravel. I do not plan to plow asphalt since I don’t have any.

I saw the same thing on FB. Thought it sounded like a good idea.

Yup. I'd use thickwall steel over PVC. The guy who plowed the drive up @ the cabin did this on his pickups.

I use a thick slab of old conveyor belt on my ATV plow for asphalt and cement driveway. Can even push snow across grass without damaging it.
