The FINN Krimper
The FINN Krimper attachment is the ideal partner to any seeding project that requires the use of straw or hay to protect the seed and help it grow by retaining moisture. FINN Krimpers anchor the straw into the soil to avoid loss of material or coverage. At the same time, the Krimper ensures the reduction of erosion and runoff while the seed is germinating. Alternatively, if the straw or hay is not anchored to the soil, it is subject to the risk of blowing or washing away by high winds or rainfall.
Heavy Duty Design.
The FINN Krimper is designed with 20 inch diameter heavy-duty notched coulters that are evenly spaced 8 inches apart to eliminate potential problems such as rock jamming. Each coulter is equipped with scrapers to clean the blade. When the Krimper is rolled across newly placed straw or hay it punches a portion of the material into a slot in the soil which is closed as the blade is removed to securely fasten the straw to the ground. Once the straw is firmly held in place, it acts as a wind break every 8 inches to keep the material from blowing or washing away. In addition, ballast boxes are built into the frame for added auxiliary weight in adverse conditions. Standard Versatility. Proper use of the FINN Krimper will provide protection for newly seeded areas on both slopes and flat surfaces. The Krimper is perfect for any application where straw or hay has been used for seed protection, soil stabilization, erosion control and straw mulch applications. Regardless of the job size or type of work, the FINN Krimper’s rugged construction will allow years of dependable performance.
FINN Krimpers are available in three distinct models to satisfy any krimping job. A 6 ft. wide 3-point hitch model, an 8 ft. wide 3-point hitch model, and an 8 ft. wide wheeled hydraulic tow-behind version that pivots on its frame.
Flexible & Effective Performance.
The B-40 Straw Blower features a convenient discharge spout and optional 6” diameter, flexible hose. It’s the ideal solution for proper mulching – providing soil moisture retention and protection against wind damage – in a wide variety of applications including the even cover of newly seeded lawns, around trees and shrubbery, berry beds, and bedding plants.
