Shatter deep compacted hardpans up to 450mm for mid-size farming operations.
The AP52 features the same performance to match the largest of our trailing deep ripper models in a compact three-point linkage frame. Available with mounted Flexi-roller.
The heavy-duty 150x150x9 mm frame alongside our innovative #9 Shank Assembly makes the AP52 perfect to shatter deep compacted hardpans up to 450 mm.
The rigid recoil shank has a huge 4,790 kg breakout at the blade and the hydraulic recoil option has over 1,846 kg breakout at the blade.
The mounted design, along with the narrow profile of the #9 shank, enables the AP52 to get the job done even when hitched to a modest tractor with as little as 180 hp. This makes the ripper ideal for mid-sized farms where heavier farm machinery results in increased soil compaction and reduced crop prosperity.
The AP52 deep ripper is available with 9, 11, 13 or 15 shanks. Custom frame and shank layouts are available on request.
The AP52 supports a range of additional shank options including:
FLEXI-ROLLER:
Break up crusting and soil clods in a single pass with a mounted Flexi-Roller, or add a rear tow hitch with a trailing Flexi-Roller.
