2023 Gearmore 2 Shank Tire Track Ripper R2-96

Tractors have to make many passes through vineyards and orchards. This creates hard pan under the tractor tires. From time to time, it is recommended to rip that area to aerate the soil for better water penetration to increase root growth. The spread width of the ripping shanks can be set to the tractor tire centers and this then shatters the soil over the compacted area up to 18" deep. These rippers have two 4" x 6" beams for added strength. Models available for all popular vineyard row spacings.

Features may include:

• Cat. 1 & 2, 3-point, ASAE quick hitch

• Two adjustable shanks for ripping soil up to 18" deep

• Adjustable bolt-on shank brackets so they can be set for different tractor tire tread widths

• Shear bolt design so shanks can swing up if hitting obstructions

• Shanks are made of 1" thick by 6 ½ " wide by 22" long steel

• Main beam 4" x 6" x ¼ " wall tubing

• Replaceable high carbon, heat treated points
