4 Inch Tapered Sweep for Empire Row Crop Cultivators

Description

When you’re cultivating your row crops and need clean, effective weed control without throwing too much soil around, this 4-inch tapered sweep gets the job done right. The tapered wings are designed for less distribution of the soil, which means you’ll cut weeds clean while keeping the dirt where it belongs—not burying your crop seedlings or creating ridges that’ll give you headaches later.

What You’re Getting

• Longer nose for wear and penetration that cuts through tough soil conditions and lasts longer between replacements
• Tapered wing design that slices weeds cleanly without excessive soil movement
• 1/4-inch thickness that’s built to handle rocks and hard ground without folding over
• Standard 7/16-inch bolt mounting with 2-1/4-inch centers for easy installation on most cultivator shanks
• 5/8-inch square center hole that fits your existing 55-degree shank setup perfectly

Built for Real Farm Work

This sweep is made for row crop cultivators working corn, soybeans, cotton, and other crops where precision matters. Whether you’re doing early season cultivation to break up crusted soil or post-emergence work to knock down weeds, the 4-inch width gives you good coverage without being so wide that you risk crop damage in narrow row spacings.

Made to Last

Empire knows that cultivator sweeps take a beating out there, so they build them tough. The steel construction handles the constant flexing and impact from rocks, roots, and hard ground. The tapered design not only moves soil better but also reduces stress on the sweep, so you’ll get more hours before you need to replace it.

Installation Notes

This is a direct bolt-on replacement for most row crop cultivator setups. Make sure your shank angle matches the 55-degree spec, and check that your bolt spacing lines up with the 2-1/4-inch centers. If you’re replacing worn sweeps, it’s a good time to check your shank bolts and make sure they’re still tight.
