Plastic Paddles Stop Elevator Plug Ups

Plastic paddles stop elevator plug ups COMBINES Accessories 11-1-4 "Stops elevator plug-ups, especially in wet corn," says George Kuchar, Carlinville, Ill., who's come up with replacement paddles for clean grain elevators in Deere, IH, Allis Chalmers, White, and Massey combines. Kuchar's ?-in thick hard plastic paddles are 1-in. wider than factory rubber paddles, filling out the entire elevator. They let less corn slip through and can carry twice the load of rubber paddles. He says they also last longer and won't be chewed on by rodents. You can replace all the paddles at once or intersperse the plastic paddles with the rubber paddles. They sell for $3.50 apiece.
