SM39TXJ Hay Tine

The HAYSTIX® SM39TXJ hay tine is a heavy-duty Conus II tapered bale spear designed for operators who need dependable bale handling performance without purchasing a complete sleeve assembly. Built as a replacement spear only, the SM39TXJ is ideal for maintaining existing bale spear systems while preserving the strength, penetration efficiency, and load stability required for demanding agricultural applications.

Featuring a 39-inch overall length and a 1.75-inch heavy-duty square spear profile, the SM39TXJ delivers smooth penetration, controlled bale handling, and long-term durability for daily farm, ranch, and commercial agricultural use.

Heavy-Duty Conus II Tapered Bale Spear

The SM39TXJ features a Conus II tapered spear design engineered to improve penetration into dense or compacted hay materials while maintaining stable load support during lifting and transport operations.

Its tapered geometry helps provide:

• Smooth bale penetration
• Reduced drag during spear removal
• Cleaner bale release during unloading
• Reduced bale disturbance
• Improved overall handling efficiency

This design is especially effective for handling:

• Dense round bales
• Square hay bales
• Wet hay
• Haylage
• Silage bales
• Compact feed materials

Omni-Directional Fluted Spear Profile

The SM39TXJ features a reinforced four-sided fluted square profile that provides equal structural strength regardless of mounting orientation.

Benefits of the omni-directional flute design include:

• Flexible installation positioning
• Improved resistance to twisting under load
• Better load stability
• Consistent structural integrity in multiple orientations
• Improved compatibility with custom agricultural frames

The fluted spear geometry also helps reduce resistance during insertion and removal from dense bale materials.

Replacement Spear Only – Sleeve Not Included

The SM39TXJ is supplied as the hay tine only and does not include:

• Sleeve/collar
• Mounting hardware
• Complete bale spear assembly

This makes it ideal for operators who already have compatible Conus II sleeves welded into existing bale spear frames or agricultural attachments.

Operators requiring the complete spear and sleeve assembly should reference the:

• 39TXJ tapered bale stab

High-Capacity Agricultural Performance

Rated at 3,500 pounds at a 30-inch load center, the SM39TXJ is engineered for heavy-duty agricultural bale handling applications requiring dependable lifting strength and long-term durability.

Its shorter 39-inch length provides:

• Improved maneuverability
• Better control during stacking and transport
• Stable bale engagement
• Easier operation in confined spaces

The compact design makes the SM39TXJ a strong choice for operators needing high-capacity performance with improved handling precision.

Heat-Treated Steel Construction

Manufactured from high-strength heat-treated steel, the SM39TXJ is designed to resist:

• Flexing
• Fatigue
• Premature wear
• Structural deformation under repeated heavy loads

Its robust construction helps deliver dependable long-term performance in high-demand agricultural and commercial environments.
