TillXtreme bearing for the star wheel assembly, not the blade gang. 1 1/2″ round center hole. Fits Great Plains, McFarlane, and VT Kuhn Krause. 7 lip seals — most bearings run 3 to 4.

This bearing carries the star wheel assembly, not the blade gang — a surface-running component some Kuhn Krause setups use instead of, or alongside, a ground-penetrating harrow. It’s a different job than a gang bearing does, and it’s not interchangeable with one.

It’s a TillXtreme bearing — 7 lip seals against 3 to 4 on a standard bearing, sealed at the factory with no grease schedule. The center hole is 1 1/2″ round. Fits Great Plains, McFarlane, and VT Kuhn Krause.

Field Notes

Most bearing failures don’t come from impact — they come from side load. A gang that wasn’t assembled square puts constant lateral pressure on the bearing regardless of seal count. Get the gang square before you torque it down.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is the center hole on this bearing round or square?

Round — 1 1/2″ round, confirmed.

What does the star wheel bearing actually do — is it the same as a gang bearing?

No — it carries the star wheel assembly, a surface-running component some Kuhn Krause setups use, not the ground-penetrating gang. Different job, not interchangeable with a gang bearing.

Why does this bearing’s seal count matter?

It’s a TillXtreme bearing — 7 lip seals against 3 to 4 on a standard bearing. More seals means less moisture and dirt getting in while the machine sits outside between seasons.
