Viper Nose™ Quads have a new and significantly improved heat-treating process. When run against our own standard quad tines we saw a clear and evident improvement with no plugging or capping.
Many water their greens prior to aerating to help ensure a cohesive plug and to help prevent capping or plugging (clogging).
Our tests have shown that this practice is not necessary since Viper Nose™ Quads do not seem to be affected by the percentage of moisture. In short, they pull a full core under the most severe conditions.
Now, more material can be removed without ‘sizing up’ and suffering the additional trauma of a larger tine footprint. Longevity has always been a big concern with any quad tine.
Test participants said it was “like night and day.”
One test course ran Viper Nose™ Quads on two Toro 648’s to complete the aerification.
They reported that each machine completed 85,000 square feet and our Viper Nose™ Quads still had what he believed to be 10-15,000 sq. ft. of life left in them.
