Driftless SW Wisconsin
I don't comment on other company's products. There are places and conditions for a wide range of different approaches to row cleaning.

In heavy standing wheat stubble you do need a wheel with sufficient tooth strength and down pressure to move the residue out of the way, not climb up and over it. In heavy standing wheat I like a wheel that is rigidly mounted to the row unit, not floating, yet still easy to adjust.

In heavy standing wheat a back-swept tooth such as our new smaller 12.75 inch dia forged wheel, run in the offset position tends not to throw residue as far as a straight radial toothed wheel. You may still need to use drive chain shields available from your planter dealer for your planter.

Our acme screw depth adjustment lets you set and maintain the distance from the bottom of the Trashwheels to the bottom of the vee opener. Our tapered roller bearings with regreaseable cap are very durable.
