Anyone who’s run an old International Harvester side delivery rake knows that worn or broken teeth will leave hay scattered all over the field instead of in nice, neat windrows. When your rake teeth get bent, lose their spring, or break off completely, you’re not gathering hay efficiently—and in some cases, you’re creating more work for yourself come baling time. This double coil rake tooth gets your IH Model 5 rake back to working like it should.
What You’re Getting
- Double coil design with two tines for better hay gathering action
- Proper 7-3/4 inch measurement from tip to front of coil for correct working angle
- 3-5/8 inch spacing between tines matches original factory specs
- 1-13/16 inch outside diameter coil fits your rake’s mounting system perfectly
- AgSmart quality construction that holds up to constant flexing and ground contact
Built for Real Farm Work
This tooth is designed specifically for International Harvester Model 5 side delivery rakes from 1952 and later. These were workhorses in their day—reliable machines that could handle everything from light alfalfa to heavy grass hay. Whether you’re using your rake for small square bales, round bales, or just getting hay into windrows for loose storage, this tooth gives you the same gathering action as when your rake was new.
Made to Last
Rake teeth take a real beating—they’re constantly hitting the ground, flexing over rocks and stumps, and working through all kinds of crop conditions. This replacement tooth uses quality spring steel that maintains its flexibility and working shape even after thousands of acres of raking. The double coil design distributes stress better than single-wire teeth, giving you longer service life.
Good to Know
Installation involves removing the old tooth from the coil mount and sliding this one into place. The coil diameter is sized to fit snugly in your rake’s tooth holders without being too tight to install or too loose to stay put. If you’re replacing multiple teeth, it’s worth checking that your rake bars are straight and your tooth holders aren’t worn—bent mounting hardware can cause premature tooth failure.
