A Landkante (also known as a landside) is a part of a plough that runs along the side of the furrow, providing stability and guiding the plough through the soil. It helps maintain the correct alignment of the plough as it moves through the field, ensuring that the ploughshare and mould board perform efficiently. The landkante typically resists the lateral forces generated during ploughing, preventing the plough from veering off course. It is an essential component for consistent, straight furrows. Landkantes come in various sizes and are designed to withstand significant wear and tear.
These landkantes are available in various lengths, widths, and hole sizes to fit different plough types and ensure proper stability and performance during ploughing.
