King Kong Teeth

:thumbsup:so gentlemen, at a cost of 55.00 per tooth for a cimaf head to only get not even 150 hours out of, compared to a carbide which you will get 600 to 1000 hours from, and you say you can mulch faster with a cimaf head, and 25 percent more economic????? come on , think about it????? carbides are the best bet. not only will you save money at 55.00 per tooth and get 100 to 150 hours use, comapred to 75.00 per tooth and get from 600 to 1000 hours use. slice and dice it any way you want, you are losing money in the long run with non carbides, and dont forget the sharpening a 2 times per day, say 1 hour each sharpening, if you are paying your operator,,,say 15.00 per hour, thats 30.00 bucks spent times 7.. which equals 210.00 per week......do the math

so do you have a preference for ease of maintenance & low total cost of ownership ? cimaf, bradco, fae, fecon ... ??? which one to buy used ?

king kong knives are round 38.00 a piece.

 

[jamesn]

i cant tell you what type of head to buy, my preferance would be fecon, seppi,
however it is up to you what you like, the terrain, and what you are mulching, and what type of machine you have

 

[treeman40]

james what kind of machine do you have

 

[cat 297c]

If he's got one it better have a fecon head on it!!!

Hey, treeman40
u ever get in touch with Mark?

Teeth are $30 at Gyro Trac. They have a special every few months where you get a new bolt, nut, and nord washers free with each tooth. You also get price breaks starting at 100.

I may have a lead on a even better price. I've got to go through the teeth I just put on then I'll bolt the test ones on. It will be several weeks before I get some good data, but I'll post the results and supplier info here when I do.

james what kind of machine do you have

Been asked a few times, but never answered.

I couldn't resist!!!

 

[jamesn]

whom is "hysro ax" and second i have a bh 350 on my machine, FECON, now in order to turn a bh350, you need at least a 125 gpm pump, and if my machine cranks better than 400 ponies, well then you figure it out, and by the way i am getting 800 hours on my teeth, no sharpening,

as stated before, a cimaf head is good in certain applactions, a fecon is good in certain applications, however where i do my work, carbides last longer on mesquite , we mulch in sandy areas , non carbides are not economical for my machine

 

[fishfactor]

and by the way i am getting 800 hours on my teeth, no sharpening

BUY A FECON, 600 HOURS ON ONE SET OF TEETH:thumbsup:

600/800 what's the difference. He's been asked several times about his machine without a answer. That just doesn't make sense to me. If I had such a monster machine I would happily tell you what it was, and post pictures for sure. My guess is he's running one of these....

 

[jamesn]

yep sure am running a weed eater, you goof ball! just keep running your machine, and your mouth, when you come to texas we will see whom is laughing!!! just bought a new dodge dually, 2011 model, paid cash, no notes. can you say that?? i will bet not, dont beleive?? call al haag at spring chrysler jeep dodge. as for my machine and what type it is, come over here and find out and bring your tonka toy machine with.
