This spring tine is a replacement component for the tine bar assembly on forage machinery. It engages with the crop mat to lift and guide material into the feed rotor or pickup drum. A worn or broken tine reduces crop flow consistency and can allow material to wrap around the rotor. The tine is formed from spring steel to maintain its shape under repeated flexing. When installing, verify that the mounting holes align with the bar and that the tine is secured with the correct fastener torque.
