[QUOTE="Lucky_P, post: 1841297, member: 12607"] Have some that are close to 20 yrs old, and still as good as on Day One. Bolts need tightening up from time to time, and we had one that cows somehow managed to break the 'weld' in one of the rings where the two ends were fused. Lightweight, compared to any metal ring we ever had... they don't freeze to the ground. My wife can flip one up and roll it to the next bale, on her own, with no problem. I don't think we ever had a metal bale ring that lasted longer than about 3 years before it was rusted out, or the cows/bull had broken out upright bars. When purchased, they were about twice the cost of the cheapest metal bale ring I could buy, but they've more than made up for that cost in their longevity. [/QUOTE]
