Tapered Sweep for Row Crop Cultivators

Description

When you’re working tight rows and need clean cultivation without throwing too much dirt around, a good tapered sweep makes all the difference. This 24-inch Empire sweep cuts through weeds and loosens soil while the tapered design keeps your crop rows neat and tidy. If you’ve been fighting with old, worn sweeps that aren’t doing the job anymore, this one will get you back to cultivating like you should.

What You’re Getting

• 24-inch width covers more ground with each pass, saving you time and fuel
• Tapered design reduces soil disturbance for cleaner cultivation around young plants
• 1/4-inch thick steel construction holds up to rocks and tough field conditions
• 55-degree mounting angle works with standard row crop cultivator shanks
• 7/16-inch bolt holes with 2-1/4 inch center spacing for secure mounting

Built for Real Farm Work

This sweep is designed for row crop cultivation—perfect for working corn, soybeans, cotton, and other row crops where you need to get close to the plants without burying them. The wide 24-inch coverage is ideal for cultivators used on larger operations where efficiency matters as much as precision.

Made to Last

Empire builds these sweeps from quality steel that’s thick enough to handle the abuse of field work. The 1/4-inch thickness gives you good wear life without making the sweep so heavy it drags down your cultivator’s performance. You’ll get plenty of seasons out of this one before you need to think about replacement.

Good to Know

The 5/8-inch square center hole and standard bolt pattern make this a direct replacement for most row crop cultivator setups. Check your shank angle—this one’s made for 55-degree shanks, which is pretty standard on most row crop cultivators. Installation is straightforward with basic hand tools.
