Optimize Your Grain Bin Sweep Performance
Improve the efficiency and effectiveness of your grain bin unloading system with the Haven Industries Grain Saver 16:1 Reduction Drive Wheel (SKU: 802-00-1005). This robust component is expertly designed to enhance the performance of your existing grain bin sweep auger, ensuring a cleaner bin floor and more reliable operation.
Engineered for Superior Grip and Durability:
The Grain Saver 16:1 Reduction Drive Wheel is built to withstand the demanding conditions inside a grain bin. Key features contributing to its exceptional performance include:
- Aggressive, High-Traction Tread: Featuring an aggressive tread pattern, this design ensures a superior grip on the bin floor, effectively digging through compacted grain and minimizing slippage. It provides the necessary driving force to move the sweep auger consistently through the grain pile. 8 individual rubber pads for easy replacement.
- 16:1 Gear Reduction: The 16.4:1 closed gearbox gear reduction mechanism significantly slows the rotation of the drive wheel compared to the 5:1 model. This even more controlled movement is ideal for larger bins or tougher grain conditions, further preventing the sweep auger from advancing too quickly, minimizing wheel spin and grain damage, and ensuring the most thorough clean-out along the bin wall.
- Adjustable Mount Design: Features an adjustable mounting system, allowing for precise positioning of the sweep backboard closer to the bin floor. This adjustability helps optimize the sweep's cleaning efficiency, minimizing the amount of grain left behind.
- Clump Busting Action: The robust design and aggressive tread also aid in breaking up clumps of grain that may form along the bin wall, facilitating smoother auger operation.
- Galvanized grain spill shield leaves less grain behind the sweep wheel.
Upgrade your grain bin sweep system with the Haven Industries Grain Saver 16:1 Reduction Drive Wheel for the most efficient, reliable, and thorough unloading process, especially suited for larger bins or challenging grain conditions. This component is an essential upgrade for optimizing the performance of compatible sweep auger systems requiring slower, more powerful advancement.

Compatibility and Application:
Understanding how the Grain Saver 16:1 Reduction Drive Wheel fits into your grain handling system is crucial for optimal performance. While this specific product (SKU: 802-00-1005) represents a fixed configuration (16:1 ratio), consider the following for application:
- Intended Use: This reduction drive wheel is designed as a component for Haven Industries Grain Saver® sweep auger systems, particularly where controlled sweep speed is desired for efficient bin cleanout.
- Sweep Auger Compatibility: Verify compatibility with your specific sweep auger model. This 16:1 reduction wheel is typically suited for larger bin diameters or applications requiring a slower, more powerful sweep advancement compared to the 5:1 model.
- System Requirements: Ensure your sweep auger's drive system is compatible with a 1" shaft connection, as indicated by the 1" flange bearing used in this wheel assembly.
- Note: Always refer to your primary sweep auger system's manual for installation guidelines and ensure all safety procedures are followed. Proper adjustment, as detailed in the Haven Industries Sweep Reduction Wheel Operator's Manual, is essential for performance and longevity.
