Personally I can’t see the need for them. When I’ve stopped the drill in work to check slot depth etc. I can’t find any seed that’s blown out of the slot with too much air. The seed tab together with the firming wheel seems to ensure that the seed has very little chance in blowing down and bouncing out of the slot.Seems like a few on here fit these air diffuser/brake type gadgets in the seed tube.
Are they worth while? going to be doing a good refurb on our drill this winter and wonder if fitting them might be a good thing?

Yes, and they look a good way to do it if needed. Ours is an old 4m unit with the two piece seed boot. Which means a wider deeper trough for the seed. If we upgrade to the newer one piece seed boot then the same air and seed is going into a narrower therefore smaller opening, so wondered if it made a difference or if you just turn back the wind a bit. Wear on the seed tab will play a big part too I guess.Hasn't anyone read any of my posts ?

Your diffuser would slow the speed of the seed as opposed to a Weaving one. Do you get much seed skinning?
I like excess fan speed as it makes a tidier in/out at the ends of the field.

Does anyone know of a supplier of these in the UK? (would prefer twin inlet) Thanks
