When you’re cutting hay or grain, a broken sickle guard can turn a productive day into a costly breakdown. Rocks, stumps, and uneven ground all take their toll on guards, and when one fails, your entire cutting operation comes to a halt. This German-made forged guard gives you the strength and reliability you need to keep moving through the field, even when conditions get tough.
What You’re Getting
- German-forged construction that handles impacts and abuse better than cast alternatives
- Heat-treated steel for maximum durability in demanding cutting conditions
- Two-point design provides optimal crop flow and cutting performance
- Direct replacement for multiple Case IH part numbers – no modifications needed
- Black finish resists corrosion and blends with your equipment
Built for Real Farm Work
This guard fits Case IH 810 headers, early 1010 and 1020 models with crossbar design, plus Case IH 175 and 200 windrowers and Field Queen 620 windrowers. Whether you’re cutting alfalfa, wheat, or laying down hay windrows, this guard handles the cutting demands of modern farming operations.
Made to Last
The forging process creates a grain structure that’s far tougher than cast guards, while heat treatment adds the hardness needed for long service life. German manufacturing means precision tolerances and consistent quality – this guard will fit right and perform season after season, even in rocky or stumpy ground.
Good to Know
Guards come packaged 25 per box, so you can stock up for the season or share with neighbors. When replacing guards, it’s smart to check your knife sections and hold-down clips at the same time. Keep a few spares on hand – it’s much easier to swap a guard in the field than to shut down for a parts run.
