The need for Duck-Foot reel tines can be calculated with this formula: Number of reel rows x (reaper width in cm / 30.5 cm) With the Convio 930 header from Claas, for example, you calculate as follows: reel rows x (930 cm / 30.5 cm ) = 183 Duck Foot reel tines. Depending on the number of rows of reels, 17 to 20 duck foot reel tines are required per meter of working width.
A Duck Foot reel tine costs 12.90 euros without VAT. For the Convio cutting unit mentioned above, equipping it with duck-foot paddles would cost 2,360 euros. In Germany, Geiger agri solution sells the reel tines.
