Looking at getting a set of non carbide teeth for the FAE. Has anybody tried the FAE type D cutting teeth or the Quadco chipper type? The FAE looks to have a bolt going from mowing side up, it looks like it would get pretty worn facing down.

Just looking for a comparison. Thx

They work good, I don't think they cut as fast as the quadcos but I think the tooth is cheaper. They plug up with wood quick and really don't like rock.

Can't speak on the quadco but I've been running the cobra teeth, non carbide, for a couple of months. They don't like rock but are wearing pretty good in my conditions.
The bolt gets packed with debris but a small point will clean it out easily. I think the debris protects the bolt.. It's easy to loosen and flip the tooth to the other cutting edge.
The carbides were junk. They literally failed 30 minutes into using them. I don't know if it a problem with the carbide attachment process or just a poor design, but where the non carbides have 60 hours per side so far and are doing pretty good, the carbides were taken off. Once you have the holder, you can use either type. Maybe I had a bad batch but the carbide literally just separated cleanly from the tooth. No chips out of carbide, clean break on all of them.

I've been running the Quadco chipper style, very happy with them. Been getting 40 to 60hrs per side, just depends how much your in the dirt. Have not ran the FAE type D tooth.
