UNIVERSAL 1590

sold in last yearGeneral overview
UNIVERSAL 1590 is a grain auger used as a farm equipment attachment for transferring grain in agricultural handling operations. It is designed for tractor PTO use at 540 rpm and uses a 381 mm (15 in) intake diameter. That configuration places it in grain-moving work where material is fed from an intake into storage or transport systems.
Key design features include standard chevron belt flights (2-ply, 15" wide) at the intake, continuous cup/chain flighting on the main section, and an S-Drive chain (#60 or #80 roller chain typical). The auger also uses a hydraulic lift (power swing models) or manual lift, a fixed axle, heavy-duty tubular steel frame, and a transport length of 12,065 mm (39 ft 7 in) with a wheel track width of 3,353 mm (11 ft).
