Lip gauge wheel
For precision seed drills and single-disc seed drills
Lip gauge wheels are essential components on precision seed drills and single-disc seed drills. Located along the seed discs, they ensure consistent and accurate sowing depth. The lip, thanks to its constant contact, ensures optimal cleaning of the opening disc.

High-performance standard solution
Suitable for standard seed drills on the market and for common soil conditions and uses
Equipped with OTICO 71S rubber, guaranteeing long service life and superior tyre flexibility for soil evacuation, thus ensuring consistent sowing depth.
- Also available with premium rubber developed for extreme working conditions. (Cotton residue, soya, etc.)
- Fitted with double row ball bearings
- Interchangeable wheels thanks to:
Identical lip/bearing offset for all wheels :
39,5 mm +/- 2.
Increased rim offset (7/8’’)
STANDARD GAUGE WHEELS with RID profile
for seed drills and single-disc seed drills for direct sowing
4.5x16"
3.3x16"
Why use a RID gauge wheel ?
RID (Reduced Inner Diameter) tyres have a reduced diameter on the lip side. This creates an unpressed area at the edge of the groove, making it easier to close.
Over-compacted furrow
- The furrow edge is not over-compacted.
- The uncompacted soil area facilitates closure in sticky/clay soils.
- Seed germination is therefore optimised.

Why use a metal lip gauge wheel ?
The metal lip gauge wheel ensures good cleaning performance of the seed disc even in extremely wet or sticky conditions.

Thanks to this unique design, the steel rims are interchangeable with standard gauge tyres.
Same rim/bearing offset for all wheels : 39,5 mm +/- 2.
Same high clearance for disc hub (7/8'')
R.I.S GAUGE WHEELS
For precision seed drills & single-disc seed drills
4.5x16"
3.2x16"
2.7x16"
Why use the R.I.S (RIM INSIDE SYSTEM) system?
- Tyre gripped by the flange on both sides, making it impossible to remove.
- High self-cleaning capacity of the tyre.
- Able to work at a significant angle / Significant transverse load capacity.
- Unique, patented design by OTICO.

SMALL DIAMETER (< Ø 400 mm)
Due to limited space or downward pressure, some applications may require a smaller diameter gauge wheel with a lip.
