Whether breaking sod, turning over heavy residue or performing any other job requiring a heavy disc, count on the industry’s workhorse — the Wishek 862NT. Weighing in at approximately 1,000 lbs/ft of implement, the Wishek 862NT is a tandem disc with 13 in disc spacing that performs in some of the toughest ground conditions, and its durable design has a reputation for lasting many years.
Because it has such a high weight per blade, the Wishek 862NT is a top choice for breaking new ground. It penetrates tough soil conditions better than lighter discs.
The Wishek 862NT has extra-large concave discs that are engineered to turn over large amounts of soil. It helps bury heavy residue for faster decomposition.
In tough ground conditions, the Wishek 862NT can help break up and mix the hard upper soil profile for easier management and better seedbed preparation in the spring.
A post-harvest tillage pass is essential for preparing a superior seedbed in the spring and establishing a strong foundation for operational performance throughout the year. Give your crop the best chance to thrive while mitigating risks at the same time.
The Wishek 862NT excels in penetrating hard soils, managing heavy residue, and preparing seedbeds. Its heavy frame and large discs ensure deep penetration and effective soil mixing, making it ideal for breaking new ground and enhancing residue decomposition.

An exceptionally heavy frame, combined with 13 in disc spacing, helps to produce an industry-leading weight per blade. This weight is leveraged to help penetrate and maintain depth in hard soils. As a result, the Wishek 862NT is commonly used to break new ground, since it can penetrate and turn over sod better than most other tools.
With a maximum working depth of 7.5 in, the Wishek 862NT is a tandem disc that turns over more soil than most other discs. This action helps to bury large amounts of residue and create excellent soil-to-residue contact. The soil microbes can then work more effectively, helping to decompose the residue at a faster rate.
Hard ground conditions can cause problems with seedbed preparation and planting. The Wishek 862NT can be used to break up and mix the soil profile at working depths up to 17.5 in. It produces larger clods that help catch moisture and resist wind erosion over the winter. The clods can then be broken down easily in the spring with a secondary tillage pass, helping to form a planter-ready seedbed.
The Wishek 862NT tandem disc is engineered to excel in difficult soil conditions, featuring industry-leading weight and large concave discs for outstanding performance. Its robust construction enables it to penetrate hard ground and handle heavy residue, while the large discs ensure thorough soil mixing and optimal tillage depth.
The Wishek 862NT weighs approximately 1,000 lbs/ft of implement. Its 13 in disc spacing provides ample weight per blade to help the unit penetrate the soil when breaking new ground or in other challenging conditions.
The Wishek 862NT counts with 30 in diameter concave discs with smooth or notched blades. The large diameter helps to mix high volumes of soil at depths up to 7.5 in. The notched option offers better cutting performance when sizing heavy residue or slicing into hard ground.

The Wishek 862NT is a tandem disc that features specialized scrapers that prevent mud build-up, ensuring reliable operation in challenging conditions. Additionally, it offers convenient leveling options with either manual or optional hydraulic systems, enhancing user convenience and operational efficiency.
The Wishek 862NT is equipped standard with specialized scrapers for the blades, bearings and spools. These scrapers help optimize performance of the disc by keeping the gangs free of mud build-up.
With the Wishek 862NT the discs can be leveled front-to-back manually with leveling screws, offering easy adjustment. For added convenience, an optional hydraulic system allows operators to make this adjustment from the cab.
The Wishek 862NT is a tandem disc equipped with spring-cushioned gangs that protect the discs from damage by allowing them to move and avoid solid objects. Additionally, the rear feathering discs ensure an even soil profile by eliminating ridges created by the front gangs, resulting in a uniform and precise soil finish.
Spring-cushioned gangs on the Wishek 862NT help prevent damage. When the blade strikes a solid object such as a rock, it travels in an arc of 6 in rearward and 6 in upward for a total of 12 in, letting it travel over and avoid damage from impact with that object.
To help create an even soil profile, the Wishek 862NT is equipped with rear feathering blades to remove ridges created by the front gangs.
Optional single-point depth control allows the operating depth of the entire disc to be adjusted with a single setting. This simple adjustment, done at the front of the machine, is easy, safe and precise.
A rear hitch allows finishing tools or other items to be towed behind the Wishek 862NT. Hydraulic and electronic extension packages are available to allow articulation of towed implements.
The Wishek 862NT has a 4 x 8 x 3/8 in tubular welded frame offering rugged durability and the necessary weight to penetrate tough ground. This robust construction ensures the disc's longevity and reliable performance.
Do you need a machine with smaller disc spacing for finer soil breakdown? The Wishek 842NT, featuring 11 in disc spacing and discs available in 28 in and 30 in sizes, offers excellent residue management and a level soil profile.
Concave disc blades are engineered for mixing soil and residue. The implement’s heavy frame helps penetrate hard ground and achieve consistent tillage depth, even in some of the most challenging applications.
Smooth concave disc
The smooth concave disc is 30 in with a working depth of 10 in. Plain blades are the best option for a smooth cut, making them ideal for finishing already worked soil.
Notched concave disc
The notched concave disc is 30 in with a working depth of 10 in. Notched blades provide good grip in heavy residues and better penetration ability, making them ideal for breaking new ground and working in moist conditions.
A rear hitch allows finishing tools or other items to be towed behind the disc. Hydraulic and electronic extension packages are available to allow articulation of towed implements.
