I have a NH 7 foot pull type sicle bar mower,
I am replacing all of the teeth and rock gourds right now,my question is how long will it take for the teeth to wear out? and after they do should I put on new or sharpen them with an angle grinder?
any help would be great!

What is the model of the mower? I have a #46 trailer type and because I was able to buy it real cheap i just bought all new rock gards and cutter bar. It has to be the best sickle mower I have ever used. Simple yet does everything needed.

You might need to change hold down clips, but the bolted sections are really nice. You can sharpen the underserrated sections, but i prefer over-serrated sections. I think that they cut better, and for me they have lasted a long time.

Bottom serated sections (or smooth) can also be sharpened a time or 2 if you feel like it.

You _may_ need to swap the hold down clamps for higher clearance models if you go with bolts, but the bolts are pretty niffty.

That all depends on what you mow and how often,whether you mow road ditches etc. If you go the bolt on style just change what you need if break one or whatever,you can do the same with rivets it is just little quicker with bolt style. Just rememder the sharp ones cut cleaner and better with less trouble.

That question is about like asking how long does it take a lawn mower blade to get dule. It depends on what you cut etc
