Achieve the Finish that Fits Your Fields

Select the finishing tool option that best fits your soil type and farming practices. Our harrow options are designed to maximize seed-to-soil contact while providing optimal leveling and clod sizing. We have multiple finishing tool options for both the Vibra-Tine model and the Tiger-Mate model.

Hitch

Hitch Options for Every Job

A variety of hitch options allow you to get the most out of your Case IH field cultivator:

  • The Floating Hitch allows the Tiger-Mate 255 to operate independently of the tractor, while enhancing the ground following for consistent depth across terrain.
  • The T-Bone Hitch provides a tighter turn radius.
  • The Rear Hitch accommodates additional towed conditioning system, while minimizing passes in seedbed preparation. 

Choose electronic or hydraulic hookups to match harrow options and towing needs.

Wheels & Tires

Stability and Durability in All Conditions

Case IH field cultivators are built to reduce compaction and remain level and stable in all field conditions

Radial Tires
  • Durable and stubble-resistant
