Martin Till FCrusher Closing Wheel | 13.5" Diameter | 9.5 lbs Cast Iron | 40-60 HP | For John Deere, Kinze, Horsch

DESCRIPTION

The Martin Till fCrusher is a game-changing solution designed to eliminate sidewall compaction and ensure uniform seed emergence. Engineered from high-strength ductile cast iron, this 9.5 lbs closing wheel provides the perfect balance of weight and soil engagement. Unlike traditional rubber tires that merely press the surface, the fCrusher features a unique tapered tooth design that firmed soil on one side while crumbling it on the other. This dual-action approach ensures maximum seed-to-soil contact without the risk of air pockets or seed "flicking."

The drafted tooth profile maintains a consistent footprint, preventing the uneven wear common in plastic alternatives. By incorporating the Martin Duty 6-lip seal bearing, this system offers industry-leading longevity in harsh planting environments. Whether you are planting corn, soybeans, or canola, the fCrusher delivers the aggressive soil shattering needed to break through tough furrow walls while maintaining the depth control required for delicate seed beds. Elevate your planter's performance and see why proper closing wheel technology is the key to higher yields.

Key Features

• Eliminate Sidewall Compaction permanently by utilizing a tapered tooth design that aggressively shatters the furrow wall, ensuring roots develop horizontally and vertically without restriction for optimal plant health.
• Dual-Action Soil Management provides firming on one side of the tooth and crumbling on the other, creating an ideal environment that seals the furrow while leaving loose soil on top.
• Ductile Cast Iron Construction ensures a long-lasting service life that far exceeds plastic or rubber wheels, resisting abrasive soil conditions and maintaining its structural integrity over thousands of acres.
• Advanced 6-Lip Seal Bearings deliver superior protection against dust, moisture, and debris, significantly extending the maintenance intervals and ensuring your planter stays in the field during tight windows.
• Self-Cleaning Tooth Geometry features wide spacing between spikes to prevent plugging from mud, rootballs, or corn cobs, ensuring consistent performance in high-residue or no-till planting conditions.
• Precision Depth Control is maintained by the wheel’s specific width and weight, preventing the over-aggressive "soil aeration" that often leads to dried-out seed trenches and poor germination.
• Optimized 9.5 lbs Lightweight Design provides enough downward pressure to crumble heavy soils without adding unnecessary stress to the row unit, reducing bounce and improving overall planter stability.
• Universal Bolt-On Compatibility allows for seamless integration with John Deere 1700, Kinze 3000+, Horsch, and White series planters, making it a versatile upgrade for most modern rowing units.
• Drafted Tooth Technology keeps the entire footprint on the ground at all times, eliminating the need to flip wheels and ensuring even wear across the life of the product.
• Improved Seed-To-Soil Contact results in faster, more even emergence by removing air pockets and ensuring the seed is properly tucked into the moisture ribbon for immediate germination.
• Multiple Bearing Options including the 7200 and 7000 series axles allow farmers to customize their setup based on specific hub requirements and heavy-duty performance needs.
• Superior Performance in Canola and other small grains is achieved through the short-tooth option, providing the delicate touch needed for shallow-planted crops in variable soil types.
