Description
The Yard Tuff 5 ft. 3-Point Plug Aerator is a professional-grade solution for compacted, clay-heavy soils. Designed for use with Category 0 and Category 1 tractors (16–50 HP), this plug aerator pulls 3 in. deep soil cores using 66 replaceable steel coring plugs—promoting healthier turf by increasing oxygen, water, and nutrient penetration to the root zone.
