When a bale breaks, it’s more than a simple annoyance. It wastes time and can even damage equipment. Cheap twine and weak knots may cause bales to deform and fray, while thick twine can put stress on your knotter. The right twine must match your baler, crop type and bale density to assure bale stability and integrity.
