Poly Replacement Snouts For Cornheads
 ✖  |
! "Our new poly replacement shields for Deere and Case-IH comheads are lighter in weight and less expensive than replacement metal gathering shields, and they have a more slippery surface that allows the crop to slide into the corn head with-out sticking or bunching. They're built as close as possible to original specs and come in matching colors," says Carl Vande Weerd, Vande Weerd Combine,
Inc., Rock Valley, Iowa.
The plastic bolt-on shields are designed for Deere and Case-IH comheads and are available in 30-in wide models (22 and 36-in. models coming soon). They're hinged on back and pivot forward for easy service access to chains and strippers.
"Our `Polytin' is more flexible than steel so it flexes rather than bending or denting," says Vande Weerd. "It also reduces the weight of the corn head making it easier to lift. The color goes all the way through the shield so they'll continue to look good as they wear. Our snout design is so similar to the originals that if you lay them side by side you can hardly tell the difference. If you damage a tin snout, you can replace it with our poly snout without having to change the rest of the unit. Deere's `ear saver' design is incorporated into the center snout to catch cobs that pop out of the feederhouse."
Complete end row units sell for $525 (fender and snout). Center snouts and fenders for 30-in. rows sell for $495. Kits come complete with mounting hardware.
