Not all firming wheels are created equal! The majority of OEM and after-market firming do not fit the furrow very well, leaving some seeds loose in the trench. Most OEM and aftermarket firming wheels do not shed mud well, which may pull seeds out, and the packed-up firming wheel might drag against the gauge wheel of the drill.
None of this is great for no till planting, not if you want to get the best crop yields, with the least amount of hassle, across varying soil conditions.
Why We Designed The DuraLok Seed Lock Wheels
We decided that we would design a better firming wheel, one that was not too narrow or wide, not too rigid or soft…but one that was just right!
We began with highly wear-resistant material so that you’ll not need to replace the firming wheels as often. We narrowed the firming wheel design to fit the seed furrow better and help shed mud, stalks, and straw. We then added “best of class,” custom-built NTN bearings with a triple-lip seal, backed by our three-year warranty.
Only then, were we completely satisfied that we had designed the best firming wheel on the market, one that you’ll be sure to appreciate!
