High Speed Skid Shoe from Yetter
The Yetter Skid Shoe holds soil and residue in place during coulter tillage and fertilizer injector operations.

Farmers using the Yetter Avenger® high speed sludge or manure injection system can hold soil in place with the new Skid Shoe from Yetter.

The Skid Shoe uses a poly plastic skid plate which resists soil buildup, particularly in heavy, wet soils. Soil and residue is held in place as the skid shoe glides over the soil next to the 25-inch opener blade.

“Manure or sludge application sometimes occurs in less than ideal soil conditions,” said Gene Chenoweth of the Yetter Research and Development Department. “The plastic skid plate allows the Avenger® to keep working in very wet soil previously considered too wet for application.”

The Skid Shoe is 18 inches long and mounts easily to the Avenger®. A steel plate backs the poly plastic skid plate for long life.

When installed on the 2986 series Avenger®, the Skid Shoe keeps soil from building up on the opener blade. Ideal for no-till applications, the Skid Shoe holds soil in place, permitting application in very demanding soil conditions.

Now in its 70th year, Yetter is the industry leader in direct-seeding, reduced tillage and conventional tillage technologies.
