Description
When you’re working between wide rows or doing specialty cultivation work, you need a sweep that can cover ground efficiently without disturbing your crop roots. This 18-inch Alabama sweep gives you the wide coverage you need for inter-row cultivation, keeping weeds at bay while leaving your valuable plants untouched. The Durafaced coating means it’ll hold its edge longer than standard sweeps, keeping you in the field instead of swapping out worn parts.
What You’re Getting
- 18-inch wide cutting surface covers more ground with each pass, saving you time and fuel
- Durafaced extended wear coating keeps the cutting edge sharp longer than regular steel
- Quarter-inch thick steel construction handles rocky ground and heavy residue without bending
- Dual 7/16-inch bolt holes or single 5/8-inch carriage bolt mounting gives you flexibility in shank attachment
- Clean design with no stem means less soil disturbance and smoother operation
Built for Specialty Cultivation Work
This sweep shines in applications where you need precise, wide cultivation between crop rows—think cotton, soybeans in wide rows, or specialty crops where root damage isn’t an option. The Alabama design cuts shallow and clean, taking out weeds while leaving crop roots undisturbed. You’ll appreciate how smoothly it runs through different soil types without building up trash or creating ridges.
Made to Last
The Durafaced coating isn’t just marketing—it’s a heat-treated surface that extends wear life significantly over standard sweeps. Combined with the quarter-inch steel thickness, this sweep stands up to the rocks, roots, and abrasive soil conditions that eat up lighter parts. You’ll get more acres out of each sweep before needing replacement.
Installation Notes
The dual bolt hole pattern fits most standard cultivator shanks with 2-1/4 inch center spacing. If you’re running a single-bolt shank, the 5/8-inch carriage bolt option has you covered. A little grease on the bolt threads makes future removal easier when it’s time to replace.
