Product catalog summary
Specifications and Features:
The document discusses radura® straw chopper knives, highlighting their high-performance capabilities. These blades are designed with induction-hardened cutting edges for longer service life. The unique feature of radura® blades is the harder back surface compared to the front, which maintains a consistently sharp edge despite wear.

Blade Types and Performance:
The document describes different blade types, including straight and twisted radura® paddle blades. These blades enhance air stream acceleration and material flow, ensuring even distribution of straw and chaff across wide swath widths, achieving up to 9 meters without an active spreader.

Maintenance and Replacement:
Regular replacement of straw chopper knives is crucial due to high wear, which can negatively impact harvest success. Worn knives can lead to increased fuel consumption, insufficient straw distribution, and slow rotting.

Product Selection and Availability:
radura® offers a comprehensive portfolio of straw chopper knives, accessible through their online product finder. Customers can select knives based on machine type and toothing, with options for counter knives and complete sets. All parts are available through agricultural dealers.
