The Thompson wheel's narrow profile and spiked tooth design, actively engage the compacted side wall of the seed trench, back filling the furrow with crumbled soil.
OEM closing wheels try and "pack" shut the furrow, which in no-till is often not consistently achievable , leaving exposed seed in the trench bottom or over packed compacted soil above the seed which can delay and negatively effect early seedling development |
Fits John Deere 50,60&90 series disc openers & MaxEmerge planters

Gets to the bottom of the seed trench for exceptional seed firming. Handles sticky soil better than other makes. |
Our friends at Exapta Solutions have come up with the ultimate seed firming wheel for Deere 50, 60 & 90 series drills. Modeled off the previously best design, the CNH SDX firming wheel, but with replaceable long life bearing, better mud repelling compound and a lot less expense!
Thorough seed firming is critical to raising even stands of crop in marginal moisture conditions. Standard OEM seed firming wheels don’t get to the bottom of the seed slot in No-Till soils; their wider girth tends to ride up on the side wall of the furrow, not applying enough pressure on the seed to push it into the bottom of the trench. The new DuraLok wheels have a thinner tapered design to get right to the bottom of the trench; they are also flexible to shed mud in sticky soils, and keep track in the trench allowing for sideways opener movement. DuraLok wheels come fitted with heavy duty NTN triple lipped bearings for long life. The goal is seed “firming” in the bottom of the trench, not soil “packing” over the top of the seed. Suits Deere 50, 60 & 90 series drills |

Stays Sharper Longer! |
Made by Ingersoll in Canada, these discs exhibit longer wear characteristeics due to a harder proprietry steel, but best of all, the deeper bevel design stays sharp as they wear. Sharp discs are essential to achieve proper cutting of residue, penertration of hard soil and better stands.

Flexible& extremely durable |
There's no competition on this one!
These seed tabs, exhibit amazing wear properties, have a flexing action that closes the gap behind the seed boot, meaning less seeds escape the trench bottom. They also fit the furrow shape better, meaning less soil is pulled over the seed before the firming wheel presses seed. A must have upgrade from the OEM tabs. |
