Tuffwear<sup>TM</sup> Extended Life Carbide Scraper

The all-new line up of TuffwearTM Scrapers is made of wear resistant carbide for extreme conditions and extended life over conventional style scrapers. Pressed into a corrosion resistant stainless steel mounting bracket the carbide insert makes contact with the double disc opener blade to prevent soil build-up.

The composition of the TuffwearTM carbide insert is the secret to long extended life. The manufacturing process is honed to an elevated science when tungsten carbide and cobalt powders are compressed then heat-treated to induce optimal strength. The resulting carbide insert has the same high wear resistant characteristics as carbide machine tool inserts used to machine metal. TuffwearTM is a good value because it saves money by providing extended life. Tungsten Carbide Manufacturer’s claim, the extra ordinary properties of tungsten carbide wears up to 100 times longer than steel in conditions including abrasion, erosion and galling. Over the life of the scraper, the cost per acre for each row would be pennies.

TuffwearTM scrapers along with mounting attachment arms are available for adapting to 7000, 7100 John Deere and Kinze planters, no grinding or modification is required for any application. TuffwearTM scrapers are also available less mounting attachment arms.

Established in 1930 and based in Colchester, Illinois, Yetter Manufacturing Company is the industry leader in planter attachments that boost productivity and profitability for production agriculture. Yetter makes a variety of coulters, residue managers, precision fertilizer placement products, markers and bulk seed handling systems.
