Redback Weedwipers stand out from the competition due to their superior construction and practical features. Our weedwipers are built with a stronger box section frame, which provides 50% more weight compared to folded sheet metal alternatives. This means it’s more durable—even a heavy person can stand on it without breaking it. The double arm wheel arms offer enhanced stability and won’t angle over time, unlike common competitors, which rely on less supportive designs. Our thicker wicks, with closed ends, prevent chemical runoff, ensuring more efficient and eco-friendly application. Our weedwiper also feature height adjustments up to 500mm, surpassing many competitor 385mm restrictions, and the winder on the drawbar allows for smoother leveling from front to back, avoiding the inconvenience of pin.
Furthermore, Redback Weedwiper wing wheels allow the frame to follow the ground’s natural contours, maintaining even coverage. It eliminates the need for a swivel towball. Unlike some competitors where a swivel towball is necessary, Redback’s design remains perfectly functional without one.
If you’re exploring funding options, we suggest reaching out to your local council or regional government body to inquire about weed control programs and available support. You may discover grants for community-led or association-based weed control initiatives, as well as funding for pasture regeneration following fires or floods.
Redback Weedwipers are a popular choice for these types of programs, and we can provide case studies and additional information to support your applications upon request.
