IronCraft 970 Series: 7′ Extreme-Duty Roundback Rotary Cutter With Chains

The IronCraft 970 Roundback Cutter is a powerhouse designed for the most demanding land-clearing tasks. With a massive 84″ cutting width, this extreme-duty mower is built to slash through heavy brush and small trees up to 4” in diameter. It is the ideal solution for roadside maintenance, commercial farm upkeep, and clearing thick overgrown acreage.

Engineered for tractors with 60 PTO horsepower and larger, the 970 features a smooth-top deck design. This prevents the accumulation of water and debris, significantly reducing rust potential and making post-work cleanup fast and efficient.
