The Brent Avalanche dual-auger grain carts have been updated with more auger side reach and height, along with choice of right- or left-hand unloading. The dual-auger design provides a narrow transport width and low profile for greater stability and ease of transport.

Models 2598 and 2098 can unload up to 1,000 bushels per minute, even in high-moisture grain, with a 24 inch vertical unloading auger and 20 inch horizontal floor auger. Models 1598, 1398 and 1198 feature a 22 inch vertical auger and 20 inch horizontal auger for unloading up to 850 bushels per minute.

Models 2598 and 2098 feature 16.5 feet of maximum auger height and 8 feet 5 inches of maximum side reach, while models 1598, 1398 and 1198 feature 17.75 feet of maximum auger height and 9 feet 1 inches of maximum side reach.

Marking Manager Andy Unverferth says growers are also benefitting from the 98-Series’ new down spout.

“Also a new feature is our standard four-way adjustable downs spout,” he says. “Growers can move the spout side-to-side and in and out when they’re unloading into the truck with limited tractor movement.”
