Description
When your disc gang is wobbling or you’re hearing grinding from worn bearings, chances are that square axle has seen better days. After thousands of acres and countless hours bouncing through fields, even the toughest steel starts showing wear where those bearings ride. This 71.9-inch square axle gets your Case IH disc harrow back to running straight and true, so you can get back to cutting through residue instead of fighting equipment problems.
What You’re Getting
- Precision-cut 1-1/8 inch square steel shaft that fits your bearings perfectly
- Full 71.9 inches of usable length with 2-3/4 inch threaded ends
- Heavy-duty construction that handles the side loads and stress of field work
- Direct replacement design – no modifications needed to your gang assembly
- Compatible nut part included to secure everything properly
Built for Real Farm Work
This axle fits many Case IH disc harrow models including the 475, 480, 485, 490, and 496 series, plus others that use the 1-1/8 inch square configuration. These are the workhorses you see cutting corn stalks, sizing wheat stubble, and preparing seedbeds across farm country. Whether you’re running a tandem disc or offset harrow, this axle handles the constant flexing and loading that comes with aggressive fieldwork.
Made to Last
Square axles take a beating from disc bearings that are constantly moving under load. This replacement is built from quality steel that resists wear and holds its dimensions even after seasons of heavy use. The square profile maintains proper bearing alignment, which means your discs stay true and your bearings last longer.
Good to Know
Before installing, check your gang bearings – worn axles often mean worn bearings too. When replacing parts, never mix worn and new components on the same gang as the differences create uneven operation. A thin coat of grease on the axle helps bearings slide during assembly and prevents corrosion. Take time to check that threaded ends are clean before installing the retaining nuts.
