Why Buy Scag
There's a wide range of options available when you start researching commercial mowers. While more expensive than some competing mowers, Scag is an acknowledged leader in the commercial mower industry. There are several good reasons for this reputation – reasons which make Scag mowers a great addition to your commercial mowing fleet.
Innovative Design
Since they first started crafting commercial mowers in 1983, Scag has been constantly updating their products in response to their customer's needs and newest innovations in mower design. They say their mowers are “Simply The Best” because most of their customers agree. Every mower is tested in several locations across North America to make sure they can handle various climates and grass types. Prototype models are used by real landscape professionals across the country for a full cutting season, and then the design team refines the new mowers based on their feedback before it is made available commercially. Scag mowers are manufactured by Scag's parent company, Metalcraft of Mayville, Inc. Metalcraft also manufactures components for the U.S. Military and several Fortune 500 companies in the construction, forestry, agriculture and material handling industries. This allows for more rapid changes and flexibility in design innovation since Scag Power Equipment is one of the last commercial equipment companies that actually manufacturers their own components.Reliable Quality
As a direct result of their high-quality design and components, Scag mowers last longer, are easier to maintain and provide you with less downtime. This quality construction is found in every aspect of the Scag mowers, but here are a couple of examples:- Every Scag belt is constructed with Kevlar cords instead of the standard, fabric/polyester cords used by most other mowers. They last longer and perform better, which means less downtime for maintenance.
- There's not a single plastic pulley on Scag mowers – they're all a split-steel design for strength and longevity.
- Cutter deck spindles feature cast iron housings for strength and are fully grease-able. They also have a relief valve to prevent over-greasing.
