PERFORMANCE PARTS
Drago offers several different product performance parts and accessories for different conditions. The two
shown below are considered to provide the best performance increase across the widest range of conditions.
SNOUT WEAR POINTS
In 2018, Drago introduced a new standard poly wear point for GT corn heads with a new front profile.
- The standard wear point has a shorter, less aggressive profile, with a higher tip point to help reduce the
risk of folding the snouts under.
- The aggressive wear point has a pointed tip that sits low to the ground and is recommended for severe
down corn conditions where the wear point tries to ride up over the corn.
The picture below shows the difference in the wear points. The yellow is the aggressive wear point, and the
green is the standard wear point.
AGGRESSIVE GATHERING CHAINS
All Drago GT heads can be optioned from the factory with an optional aggressive gathering chain. Heads may be
optioned with aggressive chains on either the center 4 rows, or across the whole head. The aggressive gathering
chain uses a longer lug as compared to the standard chain. The longer lug allows for less open space near the
top of the row unit. This provides a more positive action to help push material into the cross-auger.
The aggressive gathering chain can be added to any existing GT head. On 2016 built corn heads an additional
modification is required. Refer to Product Bulletin PB-2016.2 for more information.
