Top 10 reasons to choose the Mastek Flexi Trailing Shoe (FTS)

By NewsNo Comments

1. TAMS 3 Eligible — Get Grant Support

The Mastek Flexi Trailing Shoe is fully approved under TAMS 3, meaning Irish farmers can claim grant aid and reduce investment costs while upgrading to low-emission technology.


2. The Original Innovation — Pioneered by Mastek

Mastek was the first company to develop and launch a lightweight trailing shoe like this — designed by farmers, for farmers — long before others followed. Proven performance, years ahead.

 


3. Precision Slurry Placement

The Flexi’s rubber boot and coulter system parts the grass and places slurry directly onto the soil, reducing nitrogen loss, smell, and contamination — helping your pasture thrive.


4. Perfect for Hilly and Wet Land

Its lightweight build and spring-loaded hinged arms allow for smooth spreading on uneven, sloped, or soft ground — where other trailing shoes sink or struggle.


5. Integrated Mastek SuperCut Macerator

Enjoy clog-free, consistent flow with the built-in Mastek SuperCut Macerator — the industry leader in maceration performance, reliability, and even distribution.


6. Bolt-On Retrofit — No Welding Needed

Easily retrofit the Flexi Trailing Shoe to any tanker, door- or chassis-mounted. No modifications required, no downtime, just bolt it on and go.


7. Galvanized for Tough Conditions

The Flexi is 100% galvanized, built to resist rust and corrosion in even the harshest slurry environments — durability you can trust.

 


8. Smarter Hydraulics, Smarter Work

Hydraulic folding and upgraded gate valves make field setup and transport effortless — faster transitions, less hassle.


9. Easy Maintenance, More Uptime

Designed with easy-access stone traps and service points, this machine saves hours in the yard — because downtime costs money.


10. Range of Sizes to Suit Any Farm

From 7.6m to 9.2m, with up to 32 outlets, you get wide, even coverage no matter your farm size or tanker setup.

Upgrade your spreading system with confidence.
