Self-Adjusting Grain Spreader
 ✖  |
The Self Adjusting Agnew Grain Spreader spreads grain across the bin, no matter the flow rate or direction of the incoming grain. After more than 20 years and with a network of around 50 active dealers in the USA and Canada, the original model is a fixture in grain bins across the Great Plains. When Dennis Agnew and his wife bought the company from his father in 2017, they updated the design using customer feedback.
They created a self-containing spreader with an adjustable body base. The body base is held in a closed position by springs with a specific amount of resistance. As the hopper captures and holds the initial flow of grain, the weight on the body base counters the springs. It lowers, exposing openings that feed the chutes with grain. As grain begins to flow evenly down all the chutes at once, it cascades around the bin. As the incoming flow decreases, the springs gradually return the body base to the closed position.
The new Self Adjusting Agnew Grain Spreader is available in two models. The AG50SA for 200 to 5,000-bu. per hr. flow. The AG150SA is designed for grain flows of 400 to 15,000-bu. per hr. flow. The static Grain Spreader is still available in two sizes in its original design.
