One Bolt Takes the Hit

A shear-bolt leg protects the whole machine, so hitting something solid costs a cheap bolt, not a welder's bill.

Three Jobs, One Tool

Handles subsoil drainage, tree planting and pipe laying, so it earns its keep well past a single job.

Deep Reach, Real Relief

550mm working depth breaks up deep pans most tools can't reach, getting to the compaction that's actually holding growth back.

01
Wide Ripper Foot

A wide ripper foot, held by a roller pin for quick swaps, breaks and lifts deep subsoil pans down to 550mm for better drainage and root growth.
02
Shear Bolt Protection

A 20mm high-tensile shear bolt protects the leg if it hits rock or roots, so a strike costs a bolt and a few minutes, not a welding repair.
03
Optional Pipe Laying Attachment

Lay pipe up to 70mm OD as you rip, with a removable front that passes under fences without joiners, getting water to stock with less disruption.
04
Twin-Beam Frame

A double-beam twin RHS frame with gusseting and plating gives the strength to work deep ground on tractors from 70hp, season after season.
05
AR450 Blade & Shin Guard

A 20mm AR450 blade with a shin wear guard and replaceable ripper point resists abrasion, extending service life in stony, demanding soils.

Customer story

Proven in the paddock

Hear from the cropping farmers who put Rata equipment to work every day.

“It does the cracking down below. It leaves all the clay down the bottom and doesn't bring anything up. I found that to be very good.”
