Swing Up Dribble Bars
18 to 24 metre
In order to reduce transport sizes of our larger dribble bar models, SlurryKat have pioneered a unique Anti-Drip swing up system that not only makes the dribble bar very compact for transport, but also eliminates any problems with dripping of slurry/manure from the delivery hoses. This feature is available on our 12-24 metre models.
To cope with the massive reach available from its 24 metres arms, the SlurryKat 24m Dribble Pak incorporates an elegant electro hydraulic folding / unfolding mechanism, with top swing and hydraulic teleshift and 180 top swing.
All of which serves to compress this dynamic – and dramatic - system to a remarkably compact 2.8m transport width.

Super-flow™ 40mm slurry delivery hoses on all our units...
Competitors 50mm hoses c/w internal steel tubes which causes blockages
On all SlurryKat Dribble Bar & Trailing Shoe spreading systems we only use 40mm internal diameter specially manufactured delivery hoses. When SlurryKat first pioneered Dribble Bars back in 2007, we started with 50mm delivery hoses only to experience problems with blockages, flow rates and overall spreading performance.
Through in-field testing since 2007 our extensive contracting division has clearly proven that 40mm hoses boast much enhanced performance, trouble free blockages and enhanced environmental benefits despite confusing myths from other manufacturers.
Our unique Super-flow™’ design has 40mm delivery hoses which are inserted directly into 50mm drop hoses. These connections are retained with a patented clamping bracket (see photo opposite) which means that when the slurry leaves the 38mm outlets of the distributor head(s) there is nothing to restrict the slurry flow all the way until it leaves the machine to drop effortlessly to the ground.
Competitor machines (example image left) use 50mm hoses with internal steel tube connections. These internal steel connections not only corrode very rapidly after the first few months of operation but also massively restrict the flow by snagging with silage/ straw fibres on the inside of the PVC hoses.
Our in-depth trials have also proved that 50mm hoses resulted in increasingly messy “splashing” leading to much less precise delivery of slurry to the ground.
As we say “there is no substitute for experience”

This lead to an increased surface area and exposure to the air resulting in significant ammonia and nutrient losses and lower crop performance than compared to 40mm diameter hoses.
