Kuhn power harrow tines - any decent long lasting ones around?

[Chae1]

Anyone else used or heard of hardox power harrow tines?

Was speaking to someone that was using them on a lemken and was amazed how many acres they were covering.

Think they were about £50 a piece but worth it for acres they were doing.

These would have helped. I have a 4.6m Simba Cultipress but this would have been too heavy on what is still wet and fragile underneath. I am looking at a Carrier XL for pulling ploughing and rough seedbeds down. I still need the power harrows for now though.

In a more normal year I wouldn't have had 1100 acres of spring drilling to do. Usually half that & we'd have had it all ploughed before Christmas but we were shut down with near constant rain from early October until early March.

As the title really. We have 3 Kuhn power harrows with quick release tines. We were changing a set every couple of days this spring as the land dried out and wore them faster.

Have tried Pan Anglia hard faced tines but at 4x the price they didn't last 4x as long. We're on stony and occasionally sandy clay soils.

When i bought a new kuhn power harrow, we got 700 ac out of a set, the orange ones.
The replacements only lasted 300 ac
I bought a six metre folding kuhn off the duke of northumberland at alnwick, still on original tines

I think that’s on his new Powerharrow, new tines always seem to last longer than replacements I’m getting 8-900 acres on a genuine set of tines
