Description

When you’re laying down seed, proper closing is crucial for good emergence and yield. This 1-inch by 12-inch nylon closing wheel does the job right, whether you’re drilling winter wheat or planting corn. The lightweight nylon construction won’t compact wet soils like heavy cast iron wheels can, and the dual bearing setup with triple-lip seals keeps dirt out for seasons of reliable service.

What You’re Getting

Double row bearing design that handles side loads from rough field conditions
Three-lip seal on the dirt side plus a two-lip seal inside for maximum protection
Lightweight nylon construction that won’t cause soil compaction in wet conditions
No cap required design that simplifies maintenance and reduces parts inventory

Built for Real Farm Work

This wheel fits John Deere 455 drills and the popular 7200 and 7300 series planters that are the backbone of many corn and soybean operations. Whether you’re running an older 455 drill for cover crops and small grains or putting in row crops with the bigger planters, this wheel helps finish the job by properly closing the seed trench for good seed-to-soil contact.

Made to Last

The heavy-duty bearing system with multiple seals is designed to keep working in dusty, dirty conditions. Nylon construction resists wear better than rubber wheels and won’t crack or chunk out like some cheaper materials. The bearing protection system keeps dirt and moisture away from the critical components that keep the wheel spinning smoothly.

Installation Notes

This is a direct replacement for the original part—no modifications needed. The hub slides right onto your existing axle and the bearing setup matches the factory design. Since it doesn’t require a cap, there’s one less part to lose or forget when you’re doing maintenance in the field.
