Vertical Rotary Tiller Blades for Reforestation

A 5-foot rotary tiller typically requires a tractor with at least 35 to 50 horsepower, depending on soil type and tilling depth. In dense or rocky reforestation soils, a higher-horsepower tractor — 50 HP or above — is recommended to maintain consistent rotor speed and prevent blade stress or premature wear.

For reforestation, where soils are often rocky, root-laden, and highly abrasive, the Super-Koat grade is strongly recommended. The proprietary heat-treating process provides three or more times the service life of plain blades, significantly reducing replacement frequency and equipment downtime during land preparation and site restoration work.

Clean Cutter blades are compatible with a wide range of tiller manufacturers, including Kubota, Yanmar, Sicma, Iseki, Badalini, Seaman Mixer, and Bedoghi, among others. An online catalog cross-reference system and technical support team are available to help identify the correct part number for your specific equipment model.

Hard-Faced blades feature a wear-resistant overlay that provides twice or more the service life of standard plain blades in abrasive conditions. Super-Koat blades use a proprietary heat-treating process that delivers three or more times the life of plain blades, making them the top choice for the most demanding and abrasive soil environments.
