BITEHARDER® is proud to announce its partnership with OEM and snowmobile pioneer Polaris Industries. After testing the BITEHARDER product line last season at their Roseau, Minnesota location, the Polaris team decided to carry the Standard Series Carbide Runner Sharpener tool as a 2018 accessory option. BITEHARDER’s Carbide Runner Sharpening tool will be featured their 2018 Apparel & Accessories Catalog, its online store, and in select Polaris Dealerships.

An industry titan, Polaris has become synonymous with adventure and passion.

“With very aggressive goals, Polaris has targeted to be an eight billion dollar company by the year 2020. They are well on their way to reaching their goal by acquiring the likes of KLIM, 509, Pro Armor, Bobcat and Indian Motorcycles” said BITEHARDER Founder and Manufacturer, Glenn Welch.

Founded by Glenn Welch in 2013, BITEHARDER has provided snowmobile owners around the world the ability to easily sharpen their carbide runner’s edge, allowing them to safely experience all the performance that Polaris engineers build into their snowmobiles.

“We are extremely honored to partner with Polaris for 2018 and beyond,” said Welch. “This partnership in many ways validates our product as a simple and effective way to maintain your snowmobiles’ performance. Snowmobilers know that there is nothing better than riding on sharp carbide runners every time you head out on the trail.”

“We’re thrilled to be with a company so focused on innovation and a vision they describe as, – Fueling the passion of riders, workers and outdoor enthusiasts around the world by delivering innovative, high-quality vehicles, products, services and experiences that enrich their lives.”
