Firmers

Designed with high-tech memory polymer, the Flo-Rite® Seed Firmer provides reliable down pressure to assure consistent seed placement and proper seeding depth. The optimal down pressure maximizes the proper seed to soil contact needed to improve successful germination.

Flo-Rite’s patented enclosed stainless steel liquid tube eliminates the issues of traditional seed firmers where the liquid tubes are bracketed on the outside and exposed to crop debris and soil saving you on costly repairs.

All Flo-Rite® Seed Firmer kits include the standard hood that eliminates is issue of plugging and will not drip on itself also eliminating the issue of mud build up. Also, included with each kit is the splitter or side shooter which will put your liquid fertilizer in the furrow with 75% off the seed. Easily installed, the splitter can be pressed in by hand and with 2 clicks it’s in for good. For those using a thrive system or if you’re wanting the liquid to go down 8° more than the standard, we have the Foam Tip available as an added modification.

The exclusive wear plate will also save you money with being able to replace only the wear plate a not the whole seed firmer unit. You’ll want to replace your Wear Inserts when the length of the Insert is 1/8 of an inch away from the Firmer Stop.

Flo-Rite® seed firmers are compatible with the majority of planters including all Kinze prior to 2000, 3000 and 4900 units; White; New Idea; and Deere 7000, 7200 series planters with precision brackets XP units.
