Okay, I have a set of disk that I am trying to find the proper name for. It has one row of blades set at angle. The other set is set at the opposite angle. No folding, no wings; so would this be called a single gang disk, a disk harrow, a narrow disk, or what?

Hugh and I live a LONG way apart, though on the same continent; I totally agree with his terminology. Does it look like this off-set disk?

Thats it! Thanks for the photo. My disk don't look that good. They actually appear to be homemade.

tanklord: These two gangs, are they side by side or one behind the other? You will probably get different name from different parts of North America and indeed the world. There are guys on here from US, Canada, Europe and Austrailia.

I call the side by side gangs a single disk. One gang behind the other an offset disk. An outthrow with inthrow behind (4 gang bolts) would be a tandem disk.

They are one behind the other. You are right about different names for each region. Thanks for the help.

Hi Tank,

Boy, that's for sure! I grew up thinking that a disc came in two versions: a drag type and a tandem. Tandem being that it was able to be moved down the road on wheels like a "tandem trailer". :>)

Didn't even know there was such a thing as a single ganged disc. :>(

I'm 100 percent with Hugh. Nicely worded.

Ken: I didn't think it looked very good when I typed it, now that I've looked a 2nd time I guess it doesn't look so bad.
