Cranked silage tines are a specific type of cranked loader tine that is designed for use in the agricultural industry. They are used for handling silage, which is a type of forage made from green foliage crops that are chopped and stored in a silo for feeding to livestock. Cranked silage tines are characterized by their sharp, angled shape, which allows them to penetrate and lift the silage with ease. They typically have a longer length than other types of loader tines, which allows for greater reach when loading and unloading silage. They are often used in conjunction with a silage grab or bucket for efficient handling of the material.
