Urethane edges?

[wing126]

Hello all. Thanks for the welcome, but I've been here for a long time, but I was one of many lost in the great server crash. So I guess you can say welcome back. /forums/images/graemlins/laugh.gif
Yes the pipe I'm talking about is Sch.40 steel pipe. I use Sch. 80 if they do commercial plowing. It will last longer.
As far as cutting it, I usually use our Plasma cutting table at work, or a hand plasma cutter. The cutting torch works ok also, but the high heat will warp the pipe if you don't let it cool down and cut it in stages.The slot cut depends on the cutter edge it's fitting over.
I'll take a photo of the one on my pick up plow and post it.

Yes, I was thinking of sched. 40 or heavier PVC.

We use High Molecular Weight plastic sheets 1/4" thick on the bottom of our haybine on the skid shoes. JD has some real pretty yellow plastic sheets that you can line your corn head or grain table with.

The plastic slides over the ground and lasts a long time.

CowboyDoc I am sure can elaborate on it. The shoes on our haybine are at least 4 years old and have very little wear.

I think that the difference is that you are not using them on concrete.....

Junkman:

Where I live, there is no concrete, except the floor of my shop and garage. Everything is gravel, dirt or grass.
