Description
The Shaper Bar takes the wearbar design and performance to a new level! This bar offers a unique shape that provides much better turning than conventional bars and offers a 20% weight savings too! The concave side profile on the Shaper Bar grabs and holds snow rather than allowing snow to slip by like other wearbars. While the shape of this bar improves the turning radius of your sled on the trail, the large 60º carbide provides great control and wear on hard surfaces. The "Shaper" Bar is the original and still the best handling wearbar in the industry since 2002. Made from "cold rolled steel" to the patented shape with large 60° degree cutting carbide for durability and precise handling. The concave side profile grabs and holds snow for better and more precise turning. NOTE: Now E-coated in a corrosion-resistant black finish (may receive zinc plated bars -depending on stock). Sold in pairs.

The 2026 Arctic Cat HCX 858 is a high-performance deep snow snowmobile, built on the advanced Catalyst chassis. This model introduces a powerful new 858cc two-stroke, liquid-cooled engine, designed for exceptional performance in challenging conditions. It features electronic injection and a Next Gen C-TEC2 fuel delivery system. The 2026 model year marks a significant evolution for Arctic Cat's deep snow lineup. The HCX 858 is an entirely new model, integrating the new 858 C-TEC2 engine which boasts an 8% increase in displacement and 11% more output compared to the previous C-TEC2 800, while being 4% lighter. This year also sees the introduction of new twin-rail options for deep snow, moving beyond the single-beam Alpha rear suspension. Available trims include the HCX 858 and HCX 858 ES (Electric Start), offered in striking Black/Silver or Black/Quicksilver color schemes. Refinements across all 858-powered models for 2026 include reduced vibration, improved engine lubrication, sharpened calibrations, and better airbox sealing. FAQ:
