Plow Bolt Clamp
Submitted by: Marc Pulver (Ft. Wayne District)
This INDOT innovation streamlines the process of changing snowplow blades. The plow bolt clamp is designed to hold plow bolts securely in place, preventing them from spinning while crews loosen the nuts during blade replacement.
By keeping the bolts steady, the clamp reduces the time and physical effort needed for this routine maintenance task. It also improves safety by minimizing the need for workers to reach into tight spaces or use makeshift tools to stabilize the bolts. This simple tool helps crews work more efficiently and keep snowplow equipment ready for winter operations.
