AG-GO® 76CSJ Tapered Cotton Spike – 2″ x 76″

The AG-GO® 76CSJ tapered cotton spike is a heavy-duty cotton bale tine engineered for demanding cotton handling operations requiring extended reach, dependable penetration, and stable load control. Proudly manufactured in the USA, the 76CSJ is designed for professional agricultural and industrial environments where large cotton bales must be handled efficiently and safely throughout repeated loading cycles.

Built with a robust 2-inch diameter and extended 76-inch overall length, the 76CSJ provides the reach and strength necessary for proper engagement of dense cotton bales during lifting, transport, stacking, and yard handling operations. Its long tapered profile allows for smooth penetration while helping maintain stable bale retention under load.

Designed for use on cotton bale handlers, loaders, telehandlers, and specialty agricultural equipment, the 76CSJ delivers dependable performance in cotton yards, gins, and field applications where durability and controlled handling are critical.

Tapered Cotton Spike Design & Bale Penetration Performance

The 76CSJ utilizes a precision tapered spear profile engineered to improve penetration into compressed cotton bales while reducing unnecessary resistance during insertion and removal.

Benefits of the tapered cotton spike design include:

• Smoother penetration into dense cotton bales
• Reduced resistance during insertion and removal
• Improved bale engagement and retention
• Controlled lifting and transport performance
• Reduced stress on the attachment frame

The extended 76-inch spear length helps improve:

• Bale stability during transport
• Load balance during lifting
• Controlled bale positioning
• Stability when stacking large cotton bales
• Consistent engagement across varying bale densities

Manufactured from high-strength steel, the 76CSJ is engineered to resist:

• Bending under heavy loads
• Fatigue from repeated lifting cycles
• Premature wear
• Long-term vibration and stress

Its reinforced construction makes it ideal for high-volume cotton handling environments where equipment reliability and long-term durability are essential.

Doublenut® Locking System & Weld-In Installation

The 76CSJ is supplied complete with the 165T tapered sleeve and PRO-Link’s patented Doublenut® locking system.

The Doublenut® system utilizes a conical nut and jam nut combination designed to:

• Improve spike retention under vibration
• Reduce loosening during operation
• Maintain consistent spike alignment
• Support long-term mounting stability

The included 165T sleeve is designed for permanent weld-in installation into cotton handling equipment and agricultural attachment frames.

For proper installation:

• Weld only the sleeve into the attachment frame
• Never install the spike during welding
• Allow the sleeve to cool completely before assembly
• Insert the spike and secure using the Doublenut® system

The 76CSJ is commonly used on:

• Cotton bale handling frames
• Telehandler cotton attachments
• Loader-mounted cotton equipment
• Cotton yard handling systems
• Gin operation equipment
• AG-GO agricultural attachments
• Custom fabricated cotton handling equipment

Its combination of extended reach, tapered penetration performance, and secure mounting design makes the 76CSJ an excellent solution for demanding cotton bale operations.
