Description
When you’re running cotton disc closing systems on your John Deere planter, proper seed furrow closure can make the difference between a good stand and a great one. A worn or cracked closing tire leaves furrows open, letting moisture escape and giving seeds poor soil contact. This 6-1/2 inch by 12 inch smooth crown tire seals furrows tight and gives your cotton the best start possible.
What You’re Getting
- Smooth crown design that won’t disturb delicate cotton seeds or young plants
- Precise 6.5″ x 12″ dimensions for proper ground contact and closure pressure
- Durable construction built to handle the demands of high-speed planting
- Direct replacement that mounts on your existing cotton disc closing system
Built for Cotton Planting
This tire is specifically designed for John Deere’s cotton disc closing system attachment used on 7200, 7300, and 1720 planters. Cotton requires gentler closure than corn or beans, and the smooth crown design provides consistent furrow sealing without the aggressive action that can damage delicate cotton seeds. These planters are workhorses in cotton country, built to handle the precision requirements of cotton production.
Made to Last
Cotton planting puts unique demands on closing wheels—you need consistent pressure and smooth operation at varying speeds. This tire’s durable rubber compound handles the heat and abrasion of cotton fields while maintaining the flexibility needed for proper soil contact across changing field conditions.
Installation Notes
This tire mounts directly onto your cotton disc closing system without modifications. Check your closing wheel assemblies for proper bearing condition and spring tension before installing new tires. Proper down pressure adjustment ensures consistent furrow closure without over-compacting the soil around seeds.
