Augers

For the fastest unloading, nothing compares to the double-auger design of Brent Avalanche grain carts. The horizontal auger continuously feeds the vertical auger for maximum auger efficiency and unloading speed. Combined with the proven drivetrain you can achieve unloading speeds of up to 1,000 bushels per minute.

Chassis

When traveling across fields with a loaded grain cart, it takes a tough undercarriage to dependably handle the long hours and rough conditions. Brent Avalanche carts deliver with a durable design that stands up year after year with several undercarriage options to meet your operation's needs.

Convenience

Where others may skimp on features, Brent carts feature many standard items to make your harvest more convenient and productive.

Accessories

For maximizing the productivity of your Avalanche grain cart, choose from two different scale packages and electric operation for the standard rollover tarp.
