Single rake tine — short
The single rake tine — short is a steel spring working in the seed drill group. It is made to the dimensions of the original part.
Where it works
A rake spring lets the tine on the comb bar sweep the crop and give way when it strikes a stone. Because they work in a row, fatigue advances at a similar rate across the whole row — changing a row at a time gives a more even result than replacing single tines.
On a seed drill the job of the spring is to hold sowing depth constant. The opener shoe spring stops the shoe riding up as soil hardness changes; the coverer spring presses the closing part down with a steady force.
Dimensions and ordering
The values needed to order are wire diameter, body dimensions, free length and leg form. If you have a sample, a technical drawing or a photograph of the old part, no measuring is needed; the machine make and model is enough for most items.

How it is made
Coiling, tempering, end grinding, coating and packing all happen in our own plant in Biga; no step is outsourced. The coiling line works in the 0.20–40 mm wire range. Tempering after coiling is never skipped — a spring coiled without stress relief loses its free length in the first season.

Frequently asked questions
Can it be used in place of the original single rake tine — short?
Yes. Production takes the wire diameter, body dimensions, winding direction and leg form of the original part exactly; it fits without modifying the machine.
I do not have a sample — can I still order?
The machine make and model is enough for most items. Where there is doubt, a photograph of the old spring next to a ruler settles it.
What coating options are available?
Galvanized coating against corrosion is applied as standard. For the rake and hay rake springs in our catalogue we also produce silver, gold and black coated versions.
What is the minimum order quantity?
Because it varies with quantity, size and coating we do not publish a single lower limit. Send your requirement through the quote form and price and lead time come back together.

Cannot find the spring you need?
We produce to your dimensions in the 0.20–40 mm wire range, with no tooling dependency. A sample, a technical drawing, or simply a photograph of the old spring is enough.
