The Forges de Niaux takes it to the next level with a unique steel and special heat-treat process. Same dimensions as OEM. Replaces John Deere Part number N283804.$135.00Atom-Jet seed boot/scraper (Case P-500/NH 2080, right or left). These carbide-protected replacement scrapers for the single shoot version of these drills are made from a long-lasting abrasion resistant plate to extend the life of the scrapers. The two sets of mounting holes allow for the scrapers to be adjusted up as the disk wears down. The scraper mounts directly to the CNH shank making installation simple. The built-in trash shield is made from the same plate, preventing trash from dropping down inside the scraper, which is a significant improvement over the CNH tin shield that takes an extra set of hands to install.$57.21

Stay cool; prevent clogging
Hydraulic oil coolers function by circulating oil through a radiator connected to a fan, which forces air over the radiator. This process cools the hydraulic oil while simultaneously warming the air entering the lines, helping to prevent clogging from sticky fertilizers and seed treatments. When run with a snorkel, it helps remove humidity by pulling drier air from higher up, which is also cleaner air, so you reduce the amount of dust and debris that could cover the radiator. Snorkel kits are available with or without the oil coolers, for air carts and air boom applicators.
