Mohawk Max & Zipper Max Closing Wheels

The all-cast Mohawk Max™ and Zipper Max™ are the newest additions to Schaffert Mfg’s line of angled spike closing wheels. These wheels offer the same features and functionality as previous versions of the Mohawk and Zipper, but with even better performance in less-than-ideal planting conditions.

Features of the NEW Max wheels include:

• Wider base for better seed to soil contact
• Heavier design lets you run less down pressure and helps keep the wheel on no-till drills from bouncing at higher speeds
• New designed angles reduce build-up in wet soils
• Closed spoke design eliminates trash or stalk plugging
• No wrapping in tall cover crops

The Martin-Till 2nd Stage Closing System

The Martin-Till 2nd Stage closing system has either a 6”x12” or 4”x12” rubber press wheel that seals and levels air pockets left in seed trench to ensure ideal seed to soil contact.  Our cam adjust allows adjustment of pressure applied by press wheel to allow for a gently packing of the soil over the seed. The second stage mounts easily to most Double V style OEM closing wheel brackets. Our 14” with either 14 or 18  tooth razor wheel break side wall while cupped design squeezes the soil towards seed, ensuring good seed to soil contact.

The fCrusher & fCrumbler from Martin-Till

The fCrusher with the tapered tooth design allows firming on one side and crumbling on the other. Long life ductile 9.5 lbs. cast iron wheel will run for years while the fCrumbler mulches and firms the seed trench without smearing or packing the seed trench. This cleat design prevents mud build up from wet conditions or fertilizer application that are common with a solid rubber wheel. Both come with the Martin Duty, 6 lip seal bearing.
