Features
Gentler Grain Handling
• Paddle design moves grain with less shear and impact.
• Reduces grain cracking, helping to maintain material integrity.
• Ideal for seed, specialty grains, and high-value crops.
Innovations
- Patented open-style design.
- 16:1 reduction ratio maximizes longevity.
- Open treads maintain contact with the floor for maximum traction and do not climb piled grain.
- Individual tread adjustment accommodates uneven bin floors.
- Drive wheel is mounted in-line with the auger for constant height and proper weight distribution.
- Tensioner/Extender (Patent Pending).
- Exclusive to Brock; easily tensions the paddle chain.
- Extend length of sweep arm, up to 12 inches (305 mm) of total adjustment.
Highly Refined Drive Wheel
- Patented open-style design.64:1 reduction ratio maximizes longevity.
- Open treads minimizes climbing piled grain and maintain contact with the floor for maximum traction.
- Individual tread adjustment accommodates uneven bin floors.
- Drive wheel is mounted at end of sweep for constant height and proper weight distribution.
Effective Bin Clean-Out and Longer Equipment Life
Effective Bin Clean-Out
- Efficiently moves residual grain toward the center sump.
- Helps achieve a cleaner bin floor, reducing leftover grain.
- Adjustable Back Plate can be positioned closer to the floor to reduce grain pressure on the rubber scraper.
Longer Equipment Life
- Less wear from abrasion.
- Greaseable sealed bearings.
- Premium high-grade synthetic lubricant used in gearboxes.
- Reduced RPM drive wheel for reduced wheel tread wear.
- USA Manufactured gear box.
Reduced Maintenance/Simplified Design
- No auger flighting to wear, bend, or break.
- Minimal chain adjustments.
