Flail Mower FAQs

What is a Flail Mower?

A flail mower is a piece of agricultural equipment designed to cut or mow grass, weeds, and various types of vegetation. It operates similarly to a rotary mower but utilises multiple small blades, known as flails or knives, attached to a rotating drum or rotor. These flails are capable of cutting through thick vegetation, making flail mowers ideal for tackling dense and overgrown areas.

One of the key advantages of a flail mower is its ability to handle uneven terrain with ease. The design of the flail mower allows it to adapt and follow the contours of the ground, ensuring a consistent and even cut even on bumpy or rough surfaces. This makes it a versatile choice for maintaining fields, pastures, road verges, orchards, and other challenging landscapes.

The multiple small blades on a flail mower deliver a precise cutting action, which is particularly helpful when dealing with thick vegetation. The flails swing freely and strike the vegetation at high speeds, effectively shredding it into smaller pieces. This not only ensures a neat and tidy appearance but also aids in the decomposition process by creating smaller debris that can break down more easily.
