Replacement Tines For Pipe Reel Headers

Replacement Tines For Pipe Reel Headers COMBINES Headers 28-4-4 A new replacement poly tine for pipe reel headers allows you to quickly and easily repair broken reel tines. The Quick Finger from S.I. Distributing slips over a broken reel tine and simply snaps into place. No tools are required. The replacement tine is hollow and has two small plastic clips molded into it at the top. As you slide the replacement over the old tine, the clips spread apart and grab hold of a wing on the existing tine. "It works much faster than replacing the entire tine, and in most cases the cost is comparable," says Dave Burgei, S.I. Distributing, St. Marys, Ohio. "Most reels made today come with plastic tines, so when you run the reel down too close to the cutterbar to pick up a down crop, you can accidentally cut off part of the tines. To replace the tine, you have to remove a bolt from the tine and replace it with a new one, which is time consuming. The Quick Finger works much faster." The Quick Finger will fit the following pipe reels: AGCO 300, 400, 500, 700, and 800 series heads; Case-IH 1010, 1020, and 2020 series heads; Caterpillar 1998 and later; Deere 900 and 600 series heads; Massey Ferguson 9700, 9750, 9800, and 9850 series heads; and New Holland 971, 973, 71C, 73C, 72C, and 74C heads. The product is sold in packs of 10 tines for $22.50 plus S&H. Contact: FARM SHOW Followup, S.I.
