Whether it’s for golf course or sports field maintenance, the Redexim Verti-Cut offers ground-breaking solutions for turf management professionals. The Verti-Cut is renowned for its precision, efficiency and minimal turf disruption. What keeps the turf playable all year round. 

The Verti-Cut targets and removes unwanted vegetation, Bermuda grass, thatch, and dead material, creating optimal conditions (water, air, nutrients) for grass growth and seeding resulting in healthier grass, better drainage and air movement around the grass sward. 

Redexim Verti-Cut Features

Used at some of the premier facilities around the world, the Verti-Cut boasts a wide working width, precise depth adjustment, and efficient thatch cleanup. Let’s take a deep dive into the Redexim Verti-Cut 1600 & 2000 and its specific features. 

  • Carbide-Tipped Blades: Standard on the Verti-Cut 1600 and 2000, the carbide-tipped blades exhibit minimal wear over time and hold up in various applications. 
  • Wide Working Width: A 1.6m (63”) working width in the 1600 and a 2m (78.7”) working width in the 2000, allows for efficient coverage of large areas, saving both time and labour. 
  • Deep Scarification: The 2mm (0.07″) wide blades of our Verti-Cut reach a depth of 50mm (1.9″) to rid fairways of old organic thatch. 
  • Precise Depth Adjustment: allows for adjustment to the depth of the blades, ensuring targeted thatch removal without harming the underlying healthy turf. The front roller copes with undulations to control the infinitely adjustable working depth. 
  • Customisable Blade Spacing: The Verti-Cut offers, as an optional feature, the ability to customise blade spacing to suit the needs of any facility or aeration task. 
  • Robust Construction: Like all Redexim equipment, the Verti-Cut is engineered to withstand frequent use across diverse turf conditions built for long-term reliability. 

The Redexim Verti-Cut In Action

With a wide range of features, the impact that the Verti-Cut bring to the field is clearly displayed at golf courses and professional turf fields across the globe. These are the benefits that turf care management professionals highlight about the Verti-Cut.

Efficient Thatch Management

Managing thatch requires the right equipment and a significant amount of time. With the Verti-Cut covering an extensive area and ensuring precise depth control, thatch management is no longer an issue. For golf course fairway quality, improved aesthetics and turf health of any sports field, thatch management is necessary. 

Exceptional Durability

Equipped with carbide-tipped blades, the Verti-Cut significantly outlasts blades from standard materials. Carbide is one of the hardest materials available, and it maintains a sharp edge for longer periods. Even in tough conditions, fewer replacements and lower maintenance costs are standard with the Redexim Verti-Cut. 

Promotes Healthier More Resilient Turf

Dethatching improves the overall health of turf. The Verti-Cut fosters an environment where grass roots can thrive, absorb nutrients and water, and handle stress more effectively. The turf remains resilient against drought and heavy foot traffic. Exceptional playability, healthier growth patterns, and reduced maintenance over time are all benefits of using the Verti-Cut. 

Dethatching: The Ultimate Turf Solution

The Verti-Cut 1600 and 2000 offer a unique benefit in the functionality of dethatching. Thatch buildup can lead to disease and pest incidence. 

Importance of Dethatching

Thatch is a layer of dead and living material that accumulates between the soil surface and the green grass. A thin layer of thatch can be beneficial; however, too much thatch makes nutrient penetration, as well as air and water circulation, nearly impossible. Removing the thatch layer allows grass roots to grow healthier and deeper by accessing the air, nutrients, and water they need. 

Incorporating the Verti-Cut into your turf management routine can simplify and improve the effectiveness of dethatching practices. This practice creates the ideal disease-free environment for turf to thrive. 

The Verti-Cut benefits turf subject to summer stress while also helping prepare it for winter dormancy. With labour and time savings and turf that remains in peak condition, the Verti-Cut is an all-around solution for professional turf management. 

Expanded Product Range tailored to your needs 

If the Verti-Cut isn’t precisely what you’re looking for, we offer a range of other products tailored to dethatching and scarification needs. These solutions cater to various requirements, from small areas to more extensive turf management tasks:
