DELMHORST FX20 MOISTURE METER

Description

Get accurate hay moisture readings in the field with the Delmhorst FX20 moisture meter. This FX-20/P01 Deluxe Package pairs the FX20 meter with a 10″ prod and H-4 handle, making it ideal for small bales and windrow testing. The prod connects to the handle rather than the meter itself, so everyday use puts stress on the handle, not the meter case or its connections.

Built on the accuracy Delmhorst is known for, the FX20 gives fast, reliable readings so you can time baling with confidence, cut spoilage risk, and protect the quality and value of your hay.
