2024 BLU-JET® SubTiller 4 Base

2024 BLU-JET® SubTiller 4

From the market leader in deep-tillage technology! The Blu-Jet SubTiller® 4 in-line deep-tillage ripper features shanks that shatter compaction up to 18" deep and all the way across a 30" row. The heavy-duty frame, wide variety of shank options and spring-cushioned shank trip mechanism make the SubTiller 4 ripper the leader in the field. This tool solves deep compaction issues, improves soil structure, maximizes water absorption and decreases erosion because of the limited surface disturbance. Let this year-round conservation tool help increase yields on your farm.

Features may include:

• The SubTiller® 4 in-line ripper features a double 7"x7" frame constructed of 3/8" tubing for durability.

• The frame features 39" of under frame clearance which maximizes residue flow.

• Frame widths are available to accommodate 3-, 5-, 7-, 9- or 11-shank sizes on 30" or 38" spacing.

• Frames are available in a rigid or folding design with a 3-point or pull-type hitch depending on size.

• 3- and 5-shank models are available with a rigid frame and 3-point hitch.

• 7- and 9-shank models are available with a rigid or folding frame and 3-point or pull-type hitch.

• 11-shank model is available with a folding frame and a pull-type hitch.

• Swing-adjust gauge wheels with 20.5x8-10 tires for added stability and quick depth adjustment.

• CAT 2 or 3 three-point hitch and standard transport lights ensure safer road travel.

• The lead Super 1200 coulter system slices through residue to create a path for the shank.

• Includes 20" fluted blades with 4-bolt hubs.

• Features 1,200 lbs. of down force and 30° of swivel

• The SubTiller 4 subsoiler is available with 2 different shank trip mechanisms.

• The spring-cushioned shank trip mechanism features 3,000 lbs. of trip force and is designed for use in tougher soils with rocks.

• The shear-bolt mechanism features 9,000 lbs. of shear pressure and can be used in lighter, rock-free soils.

• Shanks are 1 1/4" wide by 6" deep by 44" tall and are made of high-carbon steel for long-term use.

• Penetrate from 14" to 18" deep and fracture all the way across a 30" row with limited surface disturbance.

• Recommended horsepower requirements are 30-50 HP per shank, depending on soil type.

• Heat-treated and reversible vertical wear guard and 3" wide CADI (carbidic austempered ductile iron) fall point for longevity.

• A frame-mounted soil probe helps you easily determine compaction depth from field to field.
