300/600/900mm Spiking Roller for 63 Tensile Steel Spikes

This spiking roller aerates turf efficiently with very little disturbance to the soil. It relieves surface compaction, helps even out imperfections in the playing surface, and is well suited to a wide range of sports pitches and fine turf. It comes in three widths: 300mm, 600mm and 900mm.

Key Features

• Does not tear the surface, so play can carry on without interruption
• Spike holes let drainage water, fresh air and dew reach the roots, loosening the soil so roots grow more freely and vital soil biology can thrive
• Aeration makes it easier for top dressing to penetrate, giving quicker and longer lasting results
• Also helps prevent moss from forming
• Closely spaced tines deliver a high volume of surface aeration, aiding water and air penetration and so a balanced gaseous exchange
• Each tine is replaceable and secured with a locknut
• Built-in 115mm (4.5in) roller for moving across hard surfaces and for surface rolling

How to Use

Tine aeration is a quick, efficient, low surface disturbance way to aerate all turf areas, and can be carried out every week of the year, making it an essential tool for any turf manager. This regular aeration is vital for stimulating soil biology, which in turn leads to consistently healthy, vigorous grass plants. It can also be used when seeding and top dressing to help protect the seed and improve soil contact.

For towing, a towing bracket and eye is required.

Applications

• Sports pitches
• Fine turf
• Year-round aeration of all turf areas
• Use alongside seeding and top dressing
