Vertical Tillage Disc Blade for McFarlane ReelDisk and Compatible Equipment

Description

When you’re doing vertical tillage work, you need a blade that can slice through heavy crop residue without getting bogged down or leaving streaks across your field. This 20-inch smooth blade from Osmundson is built specifically for vertical tillage applications, where you want to size residue and create a good seedbed without turning everything upside down like a moldboard plow would.

What You’re Getting

• Shallow 0.95-inch concavity with flat center designed for vertical tillage operations
• Boron 15B26 steel maintains perfect hardness at 46-52 Rockwell to hold an edge through tough tillage
• 3/16-inch thickness provides durability while keeping soil disturbance minimal
• Smooth edge cuts cleanly through residue without the aggressive action of notched blades
• Single punch mounting hole fits standard 1-1/2 inch square axle systems

Built for Real Farm Work

This blade is specifically designed for McFarlane ReelDisk vertical tillage equipment, but it’ll work on any vertical tillage tool using 1-1/2 inch square axles. Vertical tillage is perfect when you want to manage residue and improve soil conditions without the complete inversion you get from conventional tillage. It’s especially handy in no-till systems where you need to create just enough disturbance for good seed placement.

Made to Last

Osmundson doesn’t mess around with blade materials. The Boron steel construction gives you the perfect balance – hard enough to stay sharp through acres of corn stalks and bean stubble, but tough enough that it won’t chip or crack when you hit that inevitable field stone. The shallow concavity design means less stress on the blade and your equipment while still moving enough soil to do the job.

Installation Notes

This is a direct replacement blade that mounts with standard hardware. When replacing blades, it’s smart to check the whole gang – if one blade is worn out, the others are probably getting close too. Keep your blade spacing consistent for even soil finish, and remember that smooth blades like this one work best in lighter residue conditions compared to notched designs.
