Description

When your combine starts leaving grain in the field or the cutting action gets rough, it’s usually the sickle sections that need attention. This 3-inch fine tooth section keeps your John Deere header cutting clean through even the toughest crops. With 14 serrations per inch, it grabs and cuts stems precisely instead of pushing them over—the kind of aggressive cutting action you need when the grain is ready and weather’s closing in.

What You’re Getting

Extra heavy construction that won’t break when you hit rocks or tough stems
Fine tooth design with 14 serrations per inch for clean cuts on small grains and soybeans
Chrome plating that resists wear and stays sharp longer than standard sections
Austempered heat treatment makes it tough enough for commercial harvest operations
Top-serrated profile that pulls crops into the cutting zone effectively

Built for Real Harvest Work

This section fits John Deere’s 200 and 900 series headers, the workhorses you’ll find cutting everything from wheat and soybeans to specialty crops. These headers see long days during harvest season, often running from dawn to dusk when conditions are right. The fine tooth design excels in crops where clean cutting matters—soybeans that need to be cut low, wheat that’s been beaten down by weather, or any situation where you can’t afford to lose yield to rough cutting.

Made to Last

Kondex builds these sections to handle commercial harvest demands. The extra heavy gauge steel won’t chip or break when you inevitably hit that hidden rock or fence post. The austempered heat treatment gives you the hardness to stay sharp while keeping enough toughness to absorb impact without shattering. Chrome plating adds another layer of protection against wear and corrosion from crop acids.

Good to Know

This is a direct replacement—same bolt holes, same dimensions as your original equipment. When installing new sections, check your knife back for straightness and your hold-down clips for proper tension. A bent knife back will cause premature section wear. Keep a few spare sections in the combine—there’s never a good time to break down in the middle of a field, especially during harvest rush.
