2023 Versatile Tandem Disc TD600 10.5"

2023 Versatile Tandem Disc TD600 10.5"

Versatile’s Legacy tillage has been proven over the past five decades and hundreds of thousands of acres. The tandem discs are built to handle harsh conditions and even harsher crop residue. The robust frame (350-700 lb/ft; 521-1,042 kg/m) and extreme-duty gang bearing options assure longevity and reliability in the field. The wide selection of weight classes, working widths from 11'6" to 40' (3.5-12.2 m) and blade spacings ranging from 8" to 12" (203-305 mm)means the right tandem disc is available for light, medium and heavy primary tillage needs.

The TD400 model is a medium weight, 350 lb/ft (521 kg/m) weight class, single section tandem disc. Available in sizes from 11.5' to 20' (3.2 - 6.1 m) with a choice of 8" or 9" (203 or 230 mm) blade spacing. Use for secondary tillage, seedbed preparation or primary tillage where conditions are suitable.

Features may include:

• Blade Scrapers

All tandem discs feature one piece, 4" wide blade scrapers made of carbon steel for long wear life. The scrapers are U-bolt mounted for maximum adjustment on a heavy-duty tubular steel bar. All scrapers are located high end to the inside of the blade for maximum trash flow and to reduce draft requirements. This eliminates the need for trash guards.

• Transport

Hydraulic lockout valves are supplied standard to prevent accidental operation of either the lift or wing cylinders when the disc is being transported. The TD500N boasts a transport width of under 12', and the TD600N folds into an impressive 9.5' wide transport package.

• Staggered Front Gangs

Staggered, overlapping front gangs are standard (except on TD400) and ensure that all soil at the center of the disc is cut out cleanly and evenly. Besides leaving a more level soil profile, this feature eliminates the need for a center shank or bulk buster normally supplied on most conventional tandems.

• Removable Spindle Axles

Versatile tandem discs are built with maintenance concerns in mind. All spindle axles are designed for easy removal and maximum strength. Each spindle is bolted into a sleeve and can be removed by simply removing the bolt and pulling out the axle. This will save valuable time if repairs to a tire are needed.
