Plowshare protective plate, plow side plate wedge 3401900 3401901 Agricultural tiller parts
The 3401900 and 3401901 plow side plates are specialized protective components designed for high-intensity tillage conditions. As key boundary components in contact between the plow body and the soil, they are installed on the sides of the plow body, primarily serving four core functions: balancing lateral pressure, stabilizing tillage depth, guiding straight-line travel, and protecting the main plow body. During tillage, these components counteract the enormous lateral forces exerted by the soil on the plowshare by adhering closely to the furrow walls, preventing the agricultural machinery from veering off course and ensuring a smooth surface after tillage, free from "over-tillage" or "missed tillage."
Both products feature a long, strip-shaped plate design, with the mounting surface precisely contoured to the curvature of the plowshare to ensure a tight fit. The front end typically includes a replaceable plowshare heel (the wear limit area), secured to the plowshare assembly with bolts. This allows for replacement of only this part after wear, without needing to scrap the entire plowshare, highlighting the economical maintenance benefits of the "protective plate."
In terms of materials and processes, the products strictly adhere to industry standards (such as JB/T 7871.4 standard), selecting high-strength wear-resistant alloy steel (such as 65Mn or boron steel) through hot forging or precision stamping. Subsequent overall heat treatment processes (such as quenching and tempering) ensure that the surface hardness reaches a suitable range, guaranteeing both high hardness to resist abrasion from sand and gravel in the soil and sufficient toughness to withstand impact loads from complex terrain, preventing breakage.
The 3401900 and 3401901 are typically interchangeable left and right side plates, suitable for mainstream domestic and international grid plows or moldboard plows (such as Reken, Labey, etc.), and are highly interchangeable. The product surface is usually treated with rust prevention to cope with the humid field working environment.Agricultural machinery accessories such as plow side plates 3401900 and 3401901 are ideal choices for ensuring tillage accuracy and reducing maintenance costs. They protect the expensive plow body assembly through sacrificial wear, while their excellent wear resistance and precise dimensional control effectively improve the plow's operational stability and service life in harsh soil conditions.
