I'm running a Horsch Terrano with Bourgault 7 inch wide duckfoot points but i am only getting around 70 acres before they are worn out. They are made by Blue Armour. Is there a similar point available but with tungsten grafted on to make them last longer ?

70 acres 😭. you want tungsten on them for sure. Bigger stones will remove the entire strip if not well attached. I came from a farm in Berkshire that would eat wearing parts in hours. Here it’s totally different my 60 ft cultivator is into its fourth season with the set of 8 inch shovels. Three of those years have been dryer. Around 24000 acres and still look like another year or two to go.
