Made in Coaldale, Alberta.

Henry Bergen, honoured with the Order of Canada, built the carbide tipped wear point that made tillage tools last. The parts are made in Coaldale, Alberta.

Every casting conforms to ISO 9002. We install carbide on some of our wear points to give them a sharp leading edge. Steel and freight prices move, so we quote every order.
