About ready to make the jump. Anyone use them?? What series do you use??

Greenteeth recommends the 900 series, & bailey's sells the 700 series for the 352.

Right now, it seems that the move by greenteeth is to move away from the standard 700 & promote the tap & turn 700. They are clearancing the 700, standard tooth for $3/each.

At that price, I can save a considerable amount of coin by buying the 700 series. However, I wanna make sure that that they'll work on my machine.

What are y'all's experiences??

I run the 1100 series on my 252. I believe that's the biggest greentooth in production so, I would presume that the 900 or 700 should work just fine.

As long as you keep a good edge on the tooth, I don't know if the size matters all that much really. The reason I haven't changed to a smaller tooth on my 252 is because I take the 'dull' teeth off of the 252 and put them on my 665a where they still do a fine job of cutting with the extra torque and horsepower.

I tried the 500 series teeth on a rayco 1625 jr once and didn't care for them - too small of shavings and too slow. I like the bigger shavings of the 1100 tooth for cleanup.

There are a couple of advantages to the tap and turn. One is, of course, that you can just tap and turn them. The other is that the pockets are much lower profile and will create much less drag while down in the dirt.

I had the old style 700 series on my Rayco 1627 and LOVED them when they were sharp. They would shear nice clean chips off the stump. It would cut HUGE ribbons off pine and did very well in hardwood as well.

I now have a Carlton 7015 with the Sandvik wheel and love that but I haven't had back to back experience with both the greenteeth and the sandvik on equal horsepower machines.

I would say make the jump to the greenteeth 700 tap and turn and don't look back. You won't regret it.
