Wet crops slow harvest. Sticky stems, damp pods, tough green spots, they all do the same thing: plug the rotor, pack the concaves, and force you to slow down. When moisture shows up, most concaves start fighting instead of feeding.
That’s lost time, lost capacity, and lost grain.
Why Wet Crops Are a Problem
High-moisture material doesn’t break apart clean. It hangs on, bunches up, and builds pressure at the front of the concave. When things pack tight, the rotor rumbles, grain stays in the pods, and you end up crawling across the field just to keep the machine moving.
If the concaves can’t handle the flow, the yield goes out the back.
How Razors Edge Fixes It
Razors Edge Concaves were built for the ugly stuff, wet wheat, green canola, sticky soybeans, tough corn. The variable spacing design tightens up where the rotor hits hard and opens up where the crop needs room to escape.
That means:
- No packing
- No clumping
- No constant slowing down
Instead of choking, the combine keeps pulling in crop with a smooth, steady flow.
Better Threshing, Less Loss
In wet conditions, traditional concaves leave grain stuck in pods and cobs. Razors Edge uses notched bar technology to get grain-on-grain threshing, cleaner, faster, gentler.
You get:
- Less unthreshed grain
- Less damage
- A cleaner sample in the tank
Put more crop in your bin instead of on the ground
One Concave. Any Crops. No Cover Plates.
Most concaves need swapping when conditions get tough.
Razors Edge doesn’t.
Run wheat, barley, soybeans, canola, corn, one setup, no mid-season changes, no cover plates. Just load the next field and keep going.
Compatible with John Deere (including X9), Case IH Flagship, Fendt IDEAL and New Holland.
The Bottom Line
When crops are wet, your concaves are either helping, or hurting.
Razors Edge Concaves:
- Keep crop flowing
- Keep grain threshed clean
- Keep your combine at full capacity
- Keep money out of the residue chute
Wet crops shouldn’t slow harvest to a crawl.If your concaves can handle moisture, you stay moving, and your yield stays in the tank. Got questions about the Razors Edge Concave System? Our team is ready to answer, (855) 612‑7006.
