Introducing Pro Plates for Ski-Doo, Polaris and Arctic Cat Snowmobiles.

After several years of customers asking for runners that steer better, steer easy and are less expensive, we decided to develop a new product that combine our exclusive HRP Pro-File Runner Fin Plates and join them with 3/8” to 1/2” square or round bar OEM factory runners that come on the machines. Factory OEM runners are the easiest to steer and are the least expensive, that’s why the machines come with them. Most experienced riders want better steering runners in loose snow. After many testing miles we are ready to release our Pro Plates for Skidoo, Polaris and Arctic Cat Snowmobiles.

This combination maintains easy steering of the factory runners on hard pack. Adding Pro Plates improves steering in loose snow by pushing the runner about 1/4” deeper in the snow. Another major benefit is the Pro Plates protect the skis from wearing out when the conditions are bad and skis are riding in the dirt. This combination allows riders to buy the least expensive, around $100 or less runners on the market and still have similar steering performance to expensive aftermarket high performance runners.

We have not tested any 5/8” depth aftermarket runners with the Pro Plates but I will caution you that they will be very aggressive steering and we don’t recommend them. If you want to try runners with 3/8” studs you may need to fit the plates at the stud welds so the plates sit flat to the runner before installing on the ski.

Pro Plates for Ski Doo Pilot X, Pilot 5.7, Pilot RX and Deep Snow Snowmobile Skis.

Pro Plates are designed to fit OEM All Ski Doo Pilot Snowmobile Skis and Deep Snow Skis and runners with 5/16” or 8mm studs. When installing Pro Plates be sure the studs are long enough to come through the nylock nuts after tightened. Removing the washers and adding blue Loctite on used nuts is a good idea.

Skidoo Pro Plates fit All Pilot and Deep Snow skis from 2005 to 2026 with angled studs.  

Skidoo Runners we suggest 860202180 = 4” carbide or 860201220 = 7” carbide. Purchased from your dealer or online.

Pro Plates are designed to fit OEM Polaris Pro Steer and Polaris Gripper Skis and runners with 5/16” or 8mm studs. When installing Pro Plates be sure the studs are long enough to come through the nylock nuts after tightened. Removing the washers and adding blue Loctite on used nuts is a good idea.
