Tough To Beat

Go ahead and try. Lundell’s Poly Cupped Flighting is tough enough to handle anything you throw its way. That’s why top manufacturers have been including it as standard equipment for years. With the hi-tech durability to rival steel, Poly Cupped Flighting has become the choice of the hardest-working machines around.

Protect Your Seed Investment

Yield seems to be the word of the day. Sprays and treatments are available by the truckload, but there’s one way to maximize your yield potential from the start: Be sure to deliver intact seed to your field! Poly Cupped Flighting is designed to do just that- deliver more intact seed through gentle seed handling. University testing concludes that Lundell’s Poly Cupped Flighting delivers noticeably more intact seed to your field.

99.62% Intact Seed

University testing proves our poly has only 0.333% damage. Steel is proven to do 5 times more damage to your seed.

The Best Alternative

We challenge you to find a more gentle alternative for handling seed. Once you try our Poly Cupped Flighting, nothing else will do.
