Coil Packing Coil Packing To make an excellent seedbed or to pack behind a solid seeding tool, there's nothing better than the coil packer. Coil packing has proven itself as an effective seedbed management tool over millions of acres worldwide. Its effectiveness lies in the way the soil is firmed. Moisture moves easily to the seedbed, dramatically improving germination. This dense soil also provides a better environment for root development.
Coils are also flexible so they absorb shock while shedding dirt or mud.
The V-profile is the secret to an even spread of packing force across the width of the packer. The sides of the V-profile apply most of the force on an angle to balance the direct force at the point. Just under the soil surface, the result is a uniform seed environment across the width of the packer. This way, each seed has access to the most nutrients and moisture. On the top layer, unbroken clods remain between the coils to prevent wind erosion and water run-off.
