When you’re working ground in spring or getting ready for next season, having sharp, properly fitted sweeps makes all the difference. A worn or damaged sweep doesn’t cut cleanly through residue and can leave strips or create ridges that’ll show up later in your crop. This 7-inch sweep gives you the cutting width you need while fitting snugly on your 40-degree shank system.
What You’re Getting
- Quarter-inch thick construction that holds an edge and stands up to rocks and roots
- 40-degree shank angle design for proper penetration and soil flow
- Standard 3/8-inch bolt mounting with 1-5/8 to 1-3/4 inch spacing that fits most field cultivators
- Clean cutting action that slices through crop residue without plugging
- Bolt-on installation that lets you replace worn sweeps quickly in the field
Built for Real Farm Work
This sweep fits field cultivators used for primary tillage, seedbed preparation, and residue management. Whether you’re working corn stalks in the fall, breaking up compacted soil in spring, or preparing ground for planting, the 7-inch width gives you good coverage without being so wide it pulls hard or plugs easily in heavy residue.
Made to Last
The quarter-inch thickness provides the right balance of durability and flexibility. It’s thick enough to handle tough conditions but won’t crack under stress like thicker, more brittle sweeps can. The steel holds its edge well and maintains the proper cutting angle even after extended use.
Good to Know
Check your shank angle before ordering – this sweep is specifically designed for 40-degree shanks. If you’re not sure, measure the angle where your old sweep mounts. When installing, make sure the bolts are snug but don’t overtighten, as this can crack the mounting holes. Keep a few spares on hand since rocks and stumps can take out a sweep without warning.
