Anyone use/seen the Rezloh tooth bar?

I'm not sure if this an attachment or customization question so I'm posting it here.

Has anyone seen or used the Rezloh tooth bar? The concept seems pretty slick and I would hope that the price would be less than a 'normal' tooth bar.

Rezloh hard plate cutting edge with flush mount teeth

I have never seen one but, did you look at the video on their Website? It mounts beneath the bucket cutting edge and must have a monting bolt every 8 - 10 inches. Just think about the amount of drilling involved to mount one.

it always scares me when they make items seem like the greatest thing since sliced bread, but then don't put a price anywhere...i doubt they are cheap

I agree with you. H&H Sales does the same thing, not even an MSRP. I shopped around with their listed dealers and discovered prices ranging from $325 to $480 for a 6' EZ Standard Toothbar. Makes you wonder doesn't it?

Looks like a good idea. Attaching to the bottom of the bucket with bolts would not be as strong as a normal tooth bar which spread the pressure across the entire cutting edge but it's probably plenty strong for CUT use.

My New Holland dealer carries that bar or one almost identical to it mainly for skidsteer applications. One other "benefit" is that it leaves the bottom of the bucket smooth so you can use the loader to clean barn floors, chicken houses, etc. without having to unbolt to toothbar.

I wouldn't be surprised if the email address had changed, but still...that's not a good sign.

Anyway, I just called my local NH dealer. Get ready for it: $650 for a 4' plate. The dealer said they sell these mostly to skidsteer and backhoe contractor/operators because it reduces the wear on the bucket.

the dealer i frequent has piles of them in the back. But the ones ive seen are HUGE like 1" thick with 4"tooth/4" gap or something... 8-10" deep 2' sections (that fit together to make whatever lenght you want)

not exactly someonthing i considered bolting to the front of my "small" FEL...

(think about the perspective of this pic... i bet i could park the better part of half my TC33 in that bucket!)
