Built to push through the depths of winter in Bethlehem, the rugged MVP 3™ v-plow gives you all the power, productivity and performance you need for commercial snowplowing. With extreme flared wings, up to 45" on the heavy-duty 10' 6" model, and double-acting cylinders, the MVP 3 v-plow has earned its reputation as a reliable plow by consistently delivering on what matters most - getting more jobs done faster.
Available in both LED and Dual-Halogen models, NIGHTHAWK™ headlamps are engineered and tested for maximum light output, performance and durability to keep you ahead of the next storm.
The MVP 3™ flared v-plow blades soar from a 35" center height up to a full 45" at the outer edge on heavy-duty 10' 6" models. The MVP 3 v-plow is available in 14-gauge powder coated and stainless steel in 7' 6", 8' 6", and 9' 6" widths. It is also available in 1/4" high-density polyethylene in 8' 6" and 9' 6" widths.
10' 6" models are available in 11-gauge powder-coated steel and 12-gauge stainless steel options. All MVP 3 models feature a clean-scraping 70-degree attack angle, and come with a standard 6" high-carbon steel cutting edge to reduce wear and extend the life of the blade.
Six vertical ribs on the 7' 6" models and eight on the 8' 6", 9' 6" and 10' 6" models, combined with the exclusive WESTERN® POWER BAR, provide exceptional torsional strength and rigidity to eliminate blade twisting.
The high-strength steel base channel provides extra support along the bottom of the plow blade. A 1¼" diameter, heat-treated steel center pin resides within a three connection point hinge, keeping the wings tight for optimal performance.

As a standard feature on the MVP 3™, UltraLock double-acting cylinders allow the operator to use the v-plow in straight blade mode by locking the wings together instead of having to toggle each wing independently. The double-acting cylinders also hold the wings firmly in place for clean, efficient back dragging.
For the cleanest pass in any position, the MVP 3™ v-plow has a snow control deflector over the center hinge to help prevent snow from being lost over the top.
We manufacture our own hydraulic components to ensure the highest standards of quality and reliability, so that you get a hydraulics system that's not only fast and responsive, but that's built to last season after season. Fully enclosed components are protected from the elements.
Each blade features independent trip-edge design with heavy-duty coil springs for protection when encountering bumps and obstacles. Whether in V, scoop, or straight blade configuration, the trip edge helps protect the plow, the truck, and the operator. Since only the edge trips, snow remains in front of the blade, so you can keep going without spilling the entire load of snow.
The UltraMount® 2 system is designed for fast and easy installation and removal using a simple mechanical system. It features a robust one-piece design and is 100% compatible with UltraMount® system mounts and electrical platforms.
The mechanical chain lift system offers a variety of performance and reliability advantages over a hydraulic system.
The FLEET FLEX electrical system provides true fleet interchangeability. The same FLEET FLEX CabCommand hand-held or joystick control can operate any UltraMount® and UltraMount® 2 mounted plow on any truck at any time.
The exclusive WESTERN® SECURITY GUARD™ snowplow anti-theft system is a safe and secure way to electronically lock your snow plow when it is detached from your truck as a deterrent from theft.
Choose between a CabCommand hand-held control with push buttons or a joystick control, based on operator preference. For efficient, precise and intuitive blade control while plowing, both controls feature power "on" and "float" LED lights, backlighting for night operation, and plug-in connector for easy removal.
This advanced snow plow light and electrical system features improved electrical pins in the harness for trouble-free connections. An underhood module improves system life and complies with OEM requirements. No toggle switch needed to change from vehicle to plow lights.
The ULTRAFINISH™ baked on powder coat with epoxy primer is standard on all WESTERN® plows, providing outstanding protection against wear and rust.
10' 6" MVP 3™ v-plow models come standard with specific heavy-duty features.
Blade Construction: Thicker moldboards and a robust base angle with additional hinge points.
Heavy-Duty T-Frame: Features a solid, one piece construction, from front to back, and an oscillating pivot bar.
Standard Blade Angle Stops: Designed to transfer extreme impacts throughout the blade's structure and reduce stress on the hydraulic rams.
Standard Curb Guards: Constructed of abrasion-resistant material and designed to fit tight to the blade, these curb guards protect the outer edge of the plow from wear when plowing along sidewalks and curbs.
The blade is pre-punched for easy installation of accessories, providing a custom fit. The pre-punched holes also prevent damage to the powder coat that can sometimes occur when installing an accessory.
