Dion_B58_Forage_Box-1

Forage Boxes More upright posts aren’t always the best solution for rigidity. Dion engineers opted instead for a system of ‘tie rods’ that connect both sides of the box, through the frame, at each upright post. This in conjunction with 20 ga Galvalume® with 3/4” (91.9 cm) ribbing, results in remarkable rigidity. On top of that, at every rib, self-locking nuts and bolts ensure years of durability.
