    Replacing chain harrows?

    Hello Dry Rot. Glad you are fixed up. And for anyone else reading over this worried about delivery cost, we have harrows lodged with Gordon Agri and Thomas Sherriff up beyond Edinburg and Glasgow. Sometimes we send the harrows flat packed from our bases in Sussex or in Wales and knock off £100...

    Replacing chain harrows?

    The primary reason we made the harrows a third heavier was so they would be far more effective at levelling. The teeth were made longer and fatter for better performance on thatch. There is one tooth per pass per inch of pasture on all models. The consequence of adding more metal is that the...

    Replacing chain harrows?

    We can do you a 6 meter mat. With not too much bother it will go into your Richie frame. We have had people put our mats into the Weaving frames (The Weaving harrow is made by Jarmet) and the Mandam frames. You might need to move the "D" shackles and some of the hooks or the net will get out of...

    Replacing chain harrows?

    We too like the Richie build and used this as our benchmark standard which we would never fall below. But we decided to add 33% thicker steel than Richie's frames instead of using galvanisation. It is commonly understood that galv. will wear off the underside during contact with the ground on...

    Replacing chain harrows?

    At least 20 or so Parmiter owners came to us to replace their worn out Parmiter harrows over the last 5 years. We have been told many times that the Parmiters were well made, resilient and effective. Also that our Agritrend harrow was an even more worthy successor. They are stocked at Thomas...

    Replacing chain harrows?

    Of course, it is my opinion. It might not be impartial but is it certainly accurate and honest and objective. I would not say that mine is the best if is was not the best. If someone else out there has a better set of harrow designs and better build standards then I want to know about it!!

    Replacing chain harrows?

    You can see lots of info on the website which describes the Agritrend harrow and how it is built. You don't get that key info on the competitor harrow websites because it would not be in their favour to tell. The market is flooded with harrows which are fine for the Continental pastures where...

    Replacing chain harrows?

    I am the managing Director of Agritrend LTD and we don't spam threads! The Agritrend Harrow is well built as you say correctly and you know this first hand because you own one. The frame is not similar to Richie as you stated. It is about one third heavier than the Richie design for a start...

    The Agritrend harrows are by far the best you can get. They have heavier steel and longer teeth than any of the rest. Check their website or Youtube for the videos and description.

    Chain harrow or grass rake

    A good quality spring tine (oil cooled slowly during manufacture) should be able to take some punishment with the tines not breaking and remembering their shape. The cheaper Polish ones don't come with this benefit. The tooth sections on our harrow have about 30-40% more iron in them than...
