When you’re cutting small grains like wheat, oats, or barley, your cutter bar takes a beating from rocks, dirt, and stubble. This three-point guard sits right where the action happens, protecting your sickle sections while helping crop material flow smoothly into the header. The unique short-long-short prong configuration gives you excellent crop flow while keeping debris from jamming up your cut.
What You’re Getting
- Three-point design with short-long-short prong arrangement for optimal crop flow
- Double heat treatment makes these guards tougher than standard guards and less likely to break
- 600 series compatibility means they’ll fit a wide range of small grain headers
- AgSmart quality construction that holds up to the punishment of harvest season
- Green finish helps resist corrosion from moisture and field conditions
Built for Real Farm Work
These guards are designed specifically for small grain harvesting where you need smooth material flow and durability. The three-point configuration works great on wheat, oats, barley, and other small grains where you’re dealing with varying crop heights and conditions. Whether you’re cutting standing grain or dealing with some lodged areas, these guards help keep things moving.
Made to Last
The double heat treatment process makes these guards significantly tougher than single heat treated versions. They’ll bend before they break, which means fewer stops in the field to replace broken guards. The forged construction handles impacts from rocks and hard ground better than cheaper alternatives.
Good to Know
These are direct replacements for worn or damaged guards on your small grain header. Installation is straightforward – just remove the old guard and bolt on the new one. Keep a few spares in the combine tool box since guards do take abuse during harvest. Check guard condition before each season and replace any that are cracked or severely bent.
