Hayspears® 33SS Pin Type Bale Spear – 33″ x 1.625″ – 3,000 lb. Capacity

The Hayspears® 33SS pin type bale spear is a heavy-duty cross-bolt hay spear engineered for dependable bale handling performance in everyday agricultural operations. Designed for tractors, skid steers, bale movers, and livestock feeding equipment, the 33SS delivers reliable penetration, stable load support, and long-term durability for handling both round and square hay bales.

Built with a rugged 1.625-inch spear diameter and compact 33-inch overall length, the 33SS provides an excellent balance of strength, maneuverability, and controlled bale engagement. Its shorter spear profile makes it especially useful for feeding operations, compact equipment setups, and applications requiring precise handling in tighter working environments.

The complete assembly includes the 155 weld-in sleeve/collar along with the required mounting bolt and nut for secure installation into hay handling equipment and custom fabricated agricultural attachments.

Rated at 3,000 pounds at a 30-inch load center, the 33SS is engineered for dependable everyday farm performance under real-world bale handling conditions.

Fluted Cross-Bolt Bale Spear Design

The 33SS features a dual-side fluted spear profile engineered to improve penetration into dense bale material while reducing resistance during insertion and removal.

Benefits of the fluted bale spear design include:

• Easier penetration into compacted hay
• Reduced drag during spear removal
• Cleaner bale release during unloading
• Reduced bale disturbance during feeding
• Smoother handling efficiency during transport

Its bi-directional spear design allows installation flexibility while maintaining consistent performance. For optimal penetration and cleaner bale release, the fluted sides should be positioned parallel to the ground during installation.

The compact 33-inch spear length also helps improve:

• Maneuverability in feeding areas
• Controlled bale placement
• Equipment balance
• Handling precision during transport
• Stability when stacking smaller bales

This design performs especially well when handling:

• Round hay bales
• Square hay bales
• Dry hay
• Wet hay
• Livestock feed bales
• General agricultural materials

Weld-In Sleeve Installation & Agricultural Durability

The included 155 sleeve/collar is designed for permanent weld-in installation into bale spear frames, tractor attachments, skid steer hay spear systems, and custom agricultural fabrication projects.

For proper installation:

• Weld only the sleeve/collar into the attachment
• Do not install the spear during welding
• Allow the sleeve to cool before inserting the spear
• Secure the spear using the included bolt and nut

Once installed, the cross-bolt mounting system helps maintain secure spear retention and stable load handling during repeated lifting cycles.

Manufactured from heat-treated high-strength steel, the 33SS is engineered to resist:

• Flexing under heavy loads
• Fatigue from repeated lifting cycles
• Premature wear
• Long-term agricultural vibration

The 33SS is commonly used on:

• Tractor loader bale spear frames
• Skid steer hay spear attachments
• Bale movers
• Three-point hay handling equipment
• Livestock feeding systems
• AG-GO agricultural attachments
• Custom fabricated farm equipment

Its universal compatibility also makes it a practical replacement option for many aftermarket hay spear systems used throughout the agricultural industry.
