DESCRIPTION
Maximize your yield potential with the Martin Till 2nd Stage Closer, the ultimate solution for achieving perfect seed-to-soil contact. Designed to follow your primary closing system, this attachment focuses on eliminating the yield-robbing air pockets often left behind in the seed trench. By utilizing a high-performance 6" x 12" Rubber Chevron Press Wheel, it effectively seals and levels the soil profile, creating a smooth, consistent finish. Whether you are planting Corn, Soybeans, or Canola, this closer ensures that every seed is tucked into a firm, moist environment for rapid germination. Its heavy-duty construction and adjustable pressure settings make it a versatile addition to your planter, specifically engineered to improve emergence uniformity across diverse soil conditions. Upgrade your planting precision and secure your investment with a 2nd Stage Closer that delivers the agronomic performance modern farming demands.
Key Features
- Optimized Seed-To-Soil Contact is achieved by the secondary press wheel, which ensures that soil is firmly packed around the seed to eliminate air pockets and accelerate the germination process for higher yields.
- 6" x 12" Rubber Chevron Wheel provides a unique tread pattern that effectively levels and seals the furrow while shedding sticky mud, preventing soil buildup even in high-moisture planting conditions.
- Ideal for Diverse Crops like Corn, Soybeans, and Canola, offering the versatility needed for multi-crop operations looking for consistent closing performance across different seed sizes and planting depths.
- Eliminates Internal Air Pockets within the seed trench that can cause uneven emergence, providing a secondary layer of insurance against poor furrow closure in no-till or heavy residue environments.
- Precision Leveling Action smooths the soil surface behind the planter, reducing the risk of erosion in the row and creating a clean path for pre-emergence herbicide applications.
- Heavy-Duty Steel Construction ensures long-term durability and resistance to wear, allowing the unit to withstand the rigors of high-speed planting and abrasive soil types over multiple seasons.
- Adjustable Down Pressure allows operators to fine-tune the closing force based on soil moisture and density, preventing over-compaction while ensuring the trench is fully sealed and leveled.
- Seamless Planter Compatibility allows for quick installation on most major planter models and drills, making it an easy aftermarket upgrade to enhance the performance of your existing fleet.
- Maintenance-Free Bearing Design utilizes high-quality, sealed bearings to reduce daily service requirements, keeping your equipment in the field longer during the critical planting window.
- Enhanced Emergence Uniformity results from the consistent soil density provided by the 2nd stage closer, leading to a more even stand and simplified harvest timing later in the season.
- Cupped Razor Wheel Compatible options are available for those requiring additional soil fracturing in crust-prone soils, allowing for a customized closing system tailored to your specific farm's needs.
- High-Speed Planting Stability is a core design feature, ensuring the press wheel remains engaged with the ground without bouncing, even when operating at modern high-productivity planting speeds.
