Description

When you’re cultivating row crops, consistent depth control is what separates a good job from a great one. If your gauge wheels are cracked, worn down, or wobbling, you’re losing that precision that keeps your crops healthy and your weed control on point. This 4×12 nylon gauge wheel assembly gets your cultivator back to running smooth and maintaining the exact depth you need, whether you’re working corn, soybeans, or any other row crop that demands accuracy.

What You’re Getting

Durable nylon wheel construction that handles rocks, stumps, and rough field conditions without cracking like cheaper alternatives
Quality 5203KYY2 double row bearing that keeps the wheel spinning true season after season
Direct replacement for worn or damaged gauge wheels – bolts right on with no modifications needed
12-inch diameter provides excellent ground contact for consistent depth sensing across varying field conditions

Built for Real Farm Work

This assembly is designed specifically for John Deere Model 856 and Krause 4600 row crop cultivators – machines that see serious field time during cultivation season. Whether you’re making your first pass after planting to break up crusted soil or doing post-emergence cultivation for weed control, these cultivators need gauge wheels that can handle the job and keep your depth consistent from the first row to the last.

Made to Last

The nylon construction stands up to the abuse that gauge wheels take – constant contact with soil, rocks, crop residue, and the occasional root or stump. Unlike rubber wheels that can chunk out or metal wheels that bend, this nylon wheel maintains its shape and keeps doing its job. The double row bearing is built for the side loads and constant rotation that cultivator work demands.

Good to Know

Installation is straightforward – remove the old wheel assembly and bolt this one in place. Before you install it, take a minute to check the gauge wheel arm for any wear or damage, and make sure your depth adjustment is set where you need it. During busy cultivation season, it’s smart to keep a spare set on hand since a broken gauge wheel can shut you down when timing is critical for weed control.
