LightningRipper®

K-Line Ag’s LightningRipper® is a compact deep ripper with strong, narrow tines that penetrate well into the soil profile, busting hard pans to enhance root growth. Working down to around 450 mm with minimal soil and pasture disturbance, it improves nutrient and moisture entry while keeping more cover on the surface for long-term soil health.

What a lil ripper!

The K-Line Ag LightningRipper® is cleverly engineered with tynes that are narrow but strong and reach deep into the soil. It busts hard pans to improve root penetration and plant development, nutrient and moisture entry and retention. Strong, narrow tynes that penetrate deep into soil, breaking hard pans to enhance root growth and improve nutrient and moisture absorption.

Deep ripping performance with low surface disturbance

Engineered for performance, the K-Line Ag LightningRipper® features narrow yet exceptionally strong tynes that penetrate deep into the soil to break through hard pans. This deep ripping action promotes better root development and enhances the soil’s ability to absorb and retain nutrients and moisture.

The LightningRipper® is built tough, with heavy-duty tynes and protected by a shear pin system for added durability. While strong and durable, the narrow tyne reduces surface disruption, helping to preserve soil structure while shattering the profile to improve soil health.

A rear roller acts as a depth gauge, ensuring consistent ripping depth and helping to close the furrows for a smoother finish. The robust main frame provides long-lasting strength, while the high underframe clearance allows for efficient operation across uneven terrain.

Features & Benefits

Stronger roots and better moisture use from a compact ripper

LightningRipper® combines heavy-duty deep-ripping tines with a narrow 27 mm shank to fracture hard pans while minimising soil disturbance. A robust 100 x 100 x 9 mm box-section frame and 630 mm underframe clearance help it operate smoothly in rough, residue-laden paddocks, while the trailing roller acts as a depth gauge to keep the rip line closed and consistent. The result is improved root penetration, better moisture retention and uptake, and healthier pastures and crops from a machine that is easy to handle and economical to run.

Low Horsepower Requirements

LightningRipper® busts hard pans & keeps the moisture in, with less horsepower requirements and minimal soil disturbance.
