What is a Box Blade?

If you’re not sure if a box blade is right for you, then you’ll need to know what you’d be working with. They’re long, rectangular devices that span the width of your tractor (or other primary machines). They come with front and rear blades and are dragged or pushed through the soil, breaking up the dirt and hardened spots of your field.
 

What to Look For

You’ll find box blades in a variety of sizes in order to match it to your workload needs and your tractor. However, this isn’t the only thing you’ll want to keep in mind when shopping around. Take a look at how thick the metal is in various parts of the implement. This should include the sidewalls and the back area, where the cutting edge is, which can take the brunt of the work.

Also, consider how the box blade attaches to the tractor. Some models use pins, while others will have brackets. Check out the scarifiers, which are the blades that do most of the work, and see how easy it is to work with them and how easily they’ll hold up. There are advantages and disadvantages to choosing some of these options over others, but they tend to boil down to your needs. The average homeowner that just needs help with property management may not need the most durable and expensive blades. However, the more often you use your box blade, the sturdier you’ll need it to be.

Using Box Blades

If you do invest in a box blade, there are some important usage tips you’ll want to keep in mind. When you attach the blade, make sure it’s level, so you don’t have to go back over your work once you’re done. You’ll probably use your box blade twice when leveling one section of material: once to break up the material and then again to really level it out. Also keep in mind that while these implements are great for farming and land management, they can also be helpful for leveling gravel.
