The JOMA 6000 Blade: Smarter Design for Longer Wear and Lower Costs

The JOMA 6000 blade is a game-changer in winter road maintenance. The Original Design that incorporates tungsten carbide inserts, brazed into specially profiled steel segments, then fully encased in a durable rubber mount. The result? A blade that dramatically outlasts traditional carbide-insert options—while delivering several added benefits that improve performance, reduce maintenance costs, and protect both your equipment and the road.

✅ Longer Wear Life

Unlike rigid steel blades, the JOMA 6000 eliminates metal-to-metal contact between the blade and the plow. The rubber mount absorbs shock from uneven road surfaces, reducing the chance of severe impact or carbide fracturing.

Why it matters:

• Larger, protected inserts = longer blade life

• Less downtime for maintenance or blade replacement

• Lower overall operating costs

🔧 Minimized Vibration

Thanks to the fully rubber-encased design, vibration is significantly reduced. The rubber mounting dampens the harsh feedback typically transferred to the plow and truck.

What that means for you:

• Reduced wear and tear on your plow

• Lower risk of structural failure from vibration

• Increased operator comfort and less fatigue on long routes

🎯 Preserves Highway Markings

Rigid blades often bounce or chatter—quickly damaging painted lines. The JOMA 6000’s flexibility and rubber mounting allow it to glide over surfaces more smoothly, protecting lane markings.

The result:

• Lower repainting costs

• Fewer disruptions to traffic from frequent maintenance

• Cleaner, more visible road markings

🔇 Noise Reduction

Road noise and vibration don’t just wear out your gear—they wear out your crew. The rubber-mounted design of the JOMA 6000 dampens plow noise, providing a quieter, more comfortable work environment.

Benefits include:

• Less operator fatigue

• Reduced noise pollution in residential areas

• A better overall experience for drivers and nearby communities

❄️ Cleaner Roads = Less Salt & Sand

Because the JOMA 6000 conforms to the contour of the road, it clears snow and ice more effectively than a rigid blade. A cleaner sweep means fewer passes and less material needed.

Cost-saving potential:

• Reduced salt and sand use

• Less equipment corrosion from salt exposure

• Safer roads with fewer accidents

Bottom line: The JOMA 6000 blade isn’t just a wear part—it’s an upgrade to your entire operation. With better wear life, reduced vibration, and cost-saving benefits across the board, it’s a smart investment for any winter maintenance program.
