Twice The Amount Of Tungsten

By adding twice the amount of tungsten two main advantages are immediately seen. The first is the extended life of the tine and secondly as the original points begins to wear you can clearly see that a hook wear pattern emerges, this hook will then gather trash whereas the Maxipart® version retains its original shape and trash flows through the drill.

Version 1

This looks good as we have tungsten on the leading nose and the strip between the nose and the shin, the shin and the wings. However there were still a couple of areas for improvement.

Final Version

Certain conditions have led to the shin narrowing and also wearing above the tungsten leading to excessive leg wear, v Original. Tines run side by side on the same drill in the same conditions, both have done exactly the same hectares.

So this is what we have done. (1.) We have extended the tungsten to the top of the point. (2.) We have added hard facing to the secondary wear area behind the tungsten and then a further at the rear of the point. Both of these innovations together will mean far more extra acres out of the point as well as keeping your legs working for longer.

For further features and benefits of the two points offered, see page 112.
