The Single Number That Tells You Whether Your Ground Can Support a Road When a road engineer evaluates whether a piece of ground is strong enough to carry traffic, the first number they look at is the CBR — California Bearing Ratio. This single value, expressed as a...

The Engineering Technique That Turns Weak Soil Into Strong Ground Soil stabilization is a ground improvement technique that permanently enhances the engineering properties of existing soil — its load-bearing capacity, resistance to water, cohesion, and durability — by...

Too Little Power and the Machine Stalls. Too Much Power and You Waste Money. Here Is How to Get It Right. Every implement in our range — from a 75 hp rock rake to a 250+ hp stone crusher — specifies a minimum tractor horsepower. This number is not arbitrary. It is the...

The Teeth on Your Machine Determine How Long It Works — and How Much It Costs to Run Every stone crusher, rotavator, and soil stabilizer relies on replaceable cutting tools — the teeth, picks, or hammers mounted on the rotating drum that make contact with soil, rock,...

The Pin Size That Decides Whether Your New Implement Actually Fits Your Tractor The three-point hitch is the universal mounting system that connects virtually every rear-mounted implement to a tractor. It consists of two lower lift arms and one upper link, controlled...

The Number on Your PTO Shaft That Determines Whether Your Implement Works — or Breaks Every tractor-mounted implement that runs off the tractor's power take-off (PTO) is designed for a specific PTO rotational speed — either 540 RPM or 1,000 RPM. These are not...
