Description
When your planter's closing wheels start cracking or wearing thin, you'll notice it right away in seed trench closure and soil contact. A worn closing wheel tire can't properly seal the furrow, leaving seeds exposed to dry conditions or poor soil contact that affects emergence. This 1-inch x 12-inch smooth tire gets your closing wheel assembly back to providing consistent seed coverage across all your planted acres.
What You're Getting
- Smooth tread design that won't plug with mud or residue during planting season
- Proper 1-inch width and 12-inch diameter for accurate closing wheel function
- Durable construction that handles the constant soil contact and debris of field conditions
- Direct replacement tire that mounts on your existing closing wheel rim
- AgSmart quality that matches original equipment performance
Built for Real Planting Work
This closing wheel tire fits John Deere and Kinze planter row units where consistent seed trench closure makes the difference between good stands and great ones. Whether you're planting corn into heavy residue or soybeans in no-till conditions, the smooth tread design sheds mud and debris while maintaining proper soil contact for reliable furrow closing.
Made to Last
Planter tires take a beating from rocks, stubble, and constant ground pressure, so this one's built to handle the punishment. The rubber compound resists cracking and chunking even when working through varying soil conditions and field debris that would wear out cheaper alternatives.
Good to Know
Installation is straightforward - just remove the old tire from your closing wheel rim and mount the new one. Check your closing wheel bearings while you've got things apart, as worn bearings can cause uneven tire wear. Make sure your closing wheel pressure is properly adjusted after installing new tires for optimal seed trench closure.
