I was thumbing through some junk mail and came across an advertisement for these new backblades that the moldboard / cutting edge are a section of a old wheel loader or earthmover tire. A few days later i saw it again in the Michigam Farm Trader. Has anyone seen one of these yet or have used one? Fill us in on the pros and cons, before im stuck with 20 of them that no one wants.

We use one on a small skid loader for clearing light snow falls from sidewalks. It cleans real well on paved surfaces and brick pavers.

They have been used for years in this area by dairy farmers for manure scraping on concrete slabs (only). They're preferable to regular steel blade because they don't rub the roughness off the concrete like steel will- dairymen want to keep the slab a little rough for footing for the cows. The concrete wears out the rubber "blade", rather than the blade wearing on the concrete. I don't think they would work well at all for other normal blade uses- there's no "dig" to them.

Yes i have made up a couple for the local dairy farmers for Free Stall cleaning on the ft. of there skidsteers it works like a big squegee and does not mark up the concret . and ya can make up four from one tire . The only bad part about maken one up is the smell of burnen rubber when you are cutting the tire apart.
