Hayspears® 114T Hay Spear Tapered Sleeve – 1.625″

The Hayspears® 114T hay spear tapered sleeve is a heavy-duty weld-in mounting sleeve designed for use with 1.625-inch tapered bale spears in agricultural hay handling equipment. Engineered for dependable spear retention and accurate alignment, the 114T provides a secure mounting point that helps maintain stable bale handling performance during lifting, transport, stacking, and feeding operations.

Commonly used with tapered spear assemblies such as the 39TS and 48TS, the 114T sleeve is designed for operators building new hay frames, repairing worn equipment, or fabricating custom bale handling attachments for tractors, skid steers, bale movers, and front-end loaders.

Precision Tapered Fit & Secure Bale Spear Retention

The internal taper of the 114T is precision-machined to properly seat compatible 1.625-inch tapered hay spears. Once installed and secured using the proper conical nut system, the tapered connection helps maintain tight spear retention while reducing unwanted movement during repeated lifting cycles.

Benefits of the tapered sleeve system include:

• Improved spear alignment under load
• Reduced spear movement during operation
• Even load distribution across the frame
• Improved long-term attachment durability
• Easier spear installation and replacement

Measuring approximately 4.75 inches in length, the 114T provides sufficient engagement depth for dependable spear stability while still allowing efficient removal and replacement when necessary.

The 114T is commonly used on:

• Tractor loader bale spear frames
• Skid steer hay spear attachments
• Bale movers
• Front-end loader hay forks
• Multi-spear hay handling systems
• AG-GO agricultural attachments
• Custom fabricated farm equipment

Weld-In Installation & Agricultural Durability

The 114T is designed for permanent weld-in installation into structurally sound hay frames and agricultural attachments.

For proper installation:

• Weld only the sleeve into the attachment frame
• Never install the spear during welding
• Allow the sleeve to cool completely before assembly
• Insert the spear and secure using the appropriate conical nut

Proper installation helps ensure correct spear seating, dependable retention, and long-term structural performance under heavy agricultural workloads.

Manufactured for demanding farm use, the 114T is engineered to withstand repeated bale handling cycles and harsh agricultural environments while maintaining dependable dimensional accuracy and structural durability.
