History
At Kelly Engineering we stand by our products. We have been doing so for twenty years and will continue to do so. Our farming background gives us an appreciation of the things that our customers expect and we are prepared to listen. Some of our best ideas have come from our customers.
We were at the forefront of Chain Harrow innovation in the beginning and we are now. Kelly Engineering successfully designed and marketed the first double folding diamond harrows opening the way for machines larger than 40’.
We were the first to make a fully hydraulic folding machine that didn’t require any manual intervention. Our Disc Chain has been a major innovation and opened new markets for chain harrows.
Wherever we can we use components that are easy to source so that customers can find parts locally and keep working. Where standard parts aren’t up to the job we have designed our own, like extended gland cylinders to protect the shaft and seals, our unique swivel units, our spring loaded chain tensioning mechanisms or our unique multi lip wheel seals and screw in dust caps.

Product Features
Kelly Diamond Disc Chain Harrow
Disc Chain is just what it says. Wear resistant steel plates are pressed to form a strong concave disc that is welded to industrial chain forming a flexible gang of discs. This robust and highly efficient chain is drawn tight by our sturdy frames and passed over the ground at an angle.
Our unique Diamond Chain Harrow layout provides effective one pass operation. The offset action of the twin chain system ensures great coverage and a great job first time. The Diamond Harrow is more aggressive than traditional “V” Rotary Chain Harrows and more efficient, saving hours of double working.

Testimonials
Duane Gaither, Walnut Ridge AR
“I’ve just grown my 45th rice crop and in all those years this is THE best tool that has ever been on this farm.”
Darren French, Peach Orchard, AR
“This tool works better in wet soil than any other tool we have.”
Buddy Doty, Walnut Ridge AR
“It pulled where we couldn’t get a disc, when it was just too wet for a disc. We planted rice 14 days earlier than we otherwise could have”
“We have two fine fields of rice that we thought we would have to lay out. This tool got those fields into shape when nothing else would.”
