Plastic Replacement Shields For Cornheads COMBINES Accessories 18-5-24 If you need to replace broken or worn gathering shields on your combine head, or want an easy way to switch from wide rows to narrow 22-in. rows, you'll want to take a close look at these new plastic replacement shields.
The plastic bolt-on shields are designed for Case-IH and Deere cornheads and are available in 22- and 30-in. wide models. They're hinged on back and pivot forward for easy service access.
"They're lighter in weight and less expensive than metal gathering shields, and they have a slippery surface that results in less sticking or bunching of leaves and husks in damp conditions," says inventor Von Grotto of Litchfield, Minn. "They work great for switching to 22-in. rows because they eliminate the need to narrow up the original tin, weld it back together, and re-paint it. All you do is move the row units over and add new ones. They're available in matching colors. The color goes all the way through the shield so there's no paint to wear through. They'll always look like new."
End row units sell for $219; 22-in. row units sell for $239, and 30-in. row units sell for $269.
