When designing our harrow tine we tested many different types of steel hardness and thickness. We found that anything above 1/2" (.5") diameter collected too much trash, and also mild steel is prone to break and/or spread open. We also tried heat treating the tines, but like cast iron it made the tine too brittle and was prone to break when hit.

We use a high quality slimmer steel rod to form our tine. Our precise manufacturing uses the highest quality materials, and our tines can last three times longer than our competitors!

We begin with a 1/2" (.5") 1038 carbon spring steel rod. The rod is then drawn (or pulled) through a .452" die. This is the real secret to our tine strength, because by drawing the steel it gives the steel rod an additional 20,000 lbs. tensile strength! By drawing the steel, rather than heat treating our tine, we increase the steel strength without compromising the steel's integrity.

We use a computerized bender to bend the steel rod to ensure consistent form, and that each tine is identical. This consistency allows our tines to wear at the same rate, which eliminates the need to replace individual tines. All tines are 4 1/2" long and are held at a 120 degree angle in the aggressive mode. The 120 degree angle creates the perfect balance between penetration and trash clearance.

Each harrow section comes in seamless single widths, so there is no streaking, no need to tie together sections, and no binding and tangling.

Like our competitors, we offer front and rear sections. However, we use welded front rings that wrap around the drawbar instead of smaller old-style hooks that are placed through holes in the drawbar. The welded ring allows free movement to stop binding and premature wear, and also eliminates unhooking. The open rear rings are designed so they may be hooked and unhooked, but not out in the field when the harrow is in use.

The tines can be pulled in the aggressive mode (tines standing up), less aggressive mode (tines laying flat), or a combination between the front and rear sections so you can work-up and smooth-out all in one pass!

Who says that you can't find a quality American-made product anymore? While foreign manufacturers cut costs by using the cheapest materials and labor, we refuse to manufacture a product that wears out too quickly, breaks apart, or functions unevenly. Farm equipment isn't supposed to be disposable, and we have created a product that even our grandfathers would be proud of.
