Mud-Proof Hubs For Planter Guage Wheels
✖ |
After wet springs in many parts of the country the past couple years, many farmers have experienced first-hand frustrations with mud packed into gauge wheels on planter and grain drills. A Minnesota company says it can eliminate the problem with "slippery plastic" inserts that fit into either side of the hub to keep mud or moist soil from sticking.
The plastic is the same type used on skid plates under combine bean heads. Inserts are predrilled to fit the existing bolts that hold the hubs together. The white plastc inserts fit Deere, Case-IH, White, and Kinze row crop planters and grain drills with the same size hubs. Each row requires two inserts, which sell for $15 apiece.
