Lexion/Claas center skid shoes are pre-drilled and include all hardware necessary for installation (size #86 small head pop rivets). The holes are counterbored, allowing hardware to be recessed for smoother operation.

May Wes pioneered the application of poly to the agricultural industry in 1972. We manufacture UHMW poly skid shoes for a wide range of headers, including Case IH, New Holland, John Deere, Claas, Lexion, Caterpillar, and Gleaner/Massey. May Wes uses only virgin UHMW plastic to manufacture its skid shoes, rather than inferior recycled plastics. This results in a more durable, slicker and longer-lasting skid shoe that is free of voids. May Wes skid shoes allow operators to run their head and cutter bar as low as possible without pushing and piling soil, resulting in more crop in the combine, even in wet and sticky conditions.
