Fleets across the country must ensure that snow and ice removal equipment is ready for winter weather, preparing equipment during the off-season and continually maintaining equipment during the season. Making sure plows are ready when needed is critical for commuter safety.
Maintaining Snow and Ice Equipment 
Hydraulic connections are the heart of snow removal equipment, with multiple connections on the front of the plow, and the rear for salt spreaders, side plows, or tow plows. Stucchi offers hydraulic solutions for snow and ice removal equipment that eliminate fluid leaks, provide easy connection under pressure, and allow for quick connection and disconnection of multiple lines simultaneously with multi-coupling plates.
Hydraulic Solutions for Harsh Conditions
Brutal winters put snow removal equipment to the test with freezing temperatures and snow and ice battering hydraulic hoses and couplings. Hydraulic connections must be reliable to withstand harsh weather conditions and durable with corrosion resistance against ice prevention chemicals such as Sodium Chloride (rock salt), Magnesium Chloride, or Potassium Acetate.
Case Study: Snow Removal in a Rocky Mountain Municipality
Stucchi solved a problem for a municipality in the Rocky Mountain region that was spending up to $30,000 annually on plow equipment repairs and maintenance. They were experiencing several issues causing extensive maintenance with couplers leaking fluid, difficulty connecting under pressure, and corrosion due to the high-salt environment. Stucchi offered multi-coupling plates with stainless steel components and our integrated flat-face couplers that easily connect under pressure with no fluid spillage.
This Rocky Mountain municipality was thrilled to experience the following:
- No locking up of multi-coupling plates
- No fluid spillage on quick connect or disconnect
- No damage to couplers due to pressure
- Improved preventive maintenance schedules
- Less unscheduled downtime
- Significant cost savings
