April 9th, 2021|News, Top Featured Read More UHMW CENTER SKID SHOES NOW AVAILABLE FOR LEXION F540/F535/G540/G535, CLAAS MAXFLEX 1200/1050, 930/770 We are proud to introduce our newest aftermarket poly skid shoes for Lexion and Claas MAXFLEX headers! Manufactured from slick and durable 3/8” thick virgin UHMW poly, the new center skid shoe measures 10.25” X 9” and fits Lexion F540/F535/G540/G535 and Claas MAXFLEX 1200/1050 and 930/770 headers. It replaces OEM part 3591080, and priced at $18.50 is much easier on the wallet. The skid shoe is CNC machine cut from solid sheets of UHMW plastic and formed to fit the header in May Wes’ Hutchinson, Minnesota plastic fabrication shop. The skid shoe is pre-drilled and includes all hardware necessary for installation (size #86 small head pop rivets). May Wes skid shoes are counter bored, allowing hardware to be recessed for smoother operation. May Wes pioneered the application of poly to the agricultural industry in 1972. The company manufactures UHMW poly skid shoes for a wide range of headers, including Case IH, New Holland, John Deere, Claas, Lexion, Caterpillar, and Gleaner/Massey. May Wes uses only virgin UHMW plastic to manufacture its skid shoes, rather than inferior recycled plastics. This results in a more durable, slicker and longer-lasting skid shoe that is free of voids. May Wes skid shoes allow operators to run their head and cutter bar as low as possible without pushing and piling soil, resulting in more crop in the combine, even in wet, sticky conditions. May Wes Poly Skid Shoes are available at www.maywes.com; or order by phone at 1-800-788-6483 or purchase through local May Wes authorized dealers.

An agricultural industry first, May Wes G4 Planter Stalk Stompers level tough residual cornstalks ahead of the planter tires, protecting the tires from stubble damage and reducing costly downtime. “We introduced the G4 Planter Stalk Stompers after receiving multiple requests from no-till and strip-till farmers who were chewing up their planter tires on tough cornstalks,” said Eric Bates, May Wes sales manager. “To our knowledge, May Wes is the only manufacturer offering Stalk Stompers for planters. We rolled out our first Planter Stalk Stompers last year for John Deere 1770NT Planters, and they have been a huge hit. We’re really pleased to offer them for Case IH for this year’s planting season.” G4 Planter Stalk Stompers feature the same durable 12” wide compression molded UHMW poly G4 Stalk Stomper shoes used on May Wes’s popular G4 Stalk Stompers for corn heads. The G4 Planter Stalk Stompers are sold in four row kits that include two 72” 2”X2” toolbars, four UHMW plastic G4 Stalk Stomper shoes and adjustable mounting brackets. Additional G4 Stalk Stomper shoes, toolbars and mounting brackets can be purchased separately. May Wes G4 Planter Stalk Stompers are easy to install; simply bolt them to the planter frame using a 2”x2” tool bar and adjustable mounting brackets and set them to the desired height.

Shop Now April 22nd, 2020|Featured, News Read More MAY WES INTRODUCES NEW G4 STALK STOMPERS FOR JOHN DEERE 90/40 SERIES CORN HEADS May Wes, a leading manufacturer and supplier of aftermarket poly agricultural parts including the original Stalk Stompers, announced today that it has expanded its popular G4 Stalk Stomper product line to include John Deere 90/40 Series corn heads. May Wes added the John Deere 90/40 Series G4 Stalk Stompers to its G4 Stalk Stomper lineup to meet grower demand. The Hutchinson, Minnesota-based manufacturer introduced its award-winning compression molded UHMW G4 Stalk Stompers in 2018 and has since expanded the product line to include most major corn heads, including John Deere 90/40 and 600/700 Series; Case IH 2200, 2400, 2600, 3200, 3400, 4200 and 4400 Series; New Holland 99C/980 Series and 96C/98C/98D/996 Series; Geringhoff Horizon, Patriot/Northstar/Rotadisc Series; Drago GT and Series I & II; Harvestec; Lexion; Capello; AGCO and Fantini. May Wes will continue to add additional models as the market demands. G4 Planter Stalk Stompers are also available for John Deere 1770NT planters and will be available soon for Case IH Model 1250 Early Riser planters. May Wes also offers tractor stalk stompers for a wide range of tractors. Based on farmer feedback, the G4 Stalk Stomper features a simplified and space-saving torsion design that eliminates the spring, chain, pivot bolt and other bulky features found in most Stalk Stompers, making it much easier for one person to install, remove and reposition for transport or storage. The G4 is much more compact with a 12.7” shorter length than previous models, providing more clearance for track combines and hassle-free storage and transport on folding corn heads. May Wes widened the G4’s shoe to 12” for optimal stalk leveling and reduced its weight by 25 percent. Manufactured from ½” thick durable UHMW poly instead of steel, the G4’s shoe easily glides across the field and features a raised tail to prevent accidental reverse damage.

The G4 features our most innovative design changes to date thanks to the team effort of our staff who collaborated with several test farmers.” Based on farmer feedback, the G4 Stalk Stomper features a simplified and space-saving torsion design that eliminates the spring, chain, pivot bolt and other bulky features found in most Stalk Stompers, making it much easier for one person to install, remove and reposition for transport or storage. It is available for a wide range of corn heads.

The G4 Stalk Stomper is ideal for track combines and folding headers. It can be used on all rows to flatten and fan-out the stalk, allowing air and moisture to accelerate decomposition, or it can be used on just the rows in front of combine tires and tracks to prevent costly stubble damage. Two to 18-row kits are available. In addition to the Game-Changing B2C Product Award, May Wes parent company Pride Solutions was awarded the Best in Class Small Business award, and Pride Solutions founder Tom Daggett was awarded the Lifetime Achievement Award.
