Closing Wheel Zips Up Seed Furrow
![]() |
"Our Zipper Closing Wheel is designed to work in tough soils," says Paul Schaffert. "It's like no other closing wheel on the market."
The closing wheel is fabricated from heavy-duty cast metal with a rim for the "zipper" ring. A wheel with ring and bearing is available from Schaffert for $70 or $140 per row (two wheels).
Replacement rings for the Schaffert wheel or for use on existing rubber closing wheels are available for $45 each. The angled bars on the ring prevent the wheel from plugging.
