Ceres Turf, Inc. is a manufacturing and distribution company located in Wilmington, NC supplying premium after-market parts for the turf industry.
The owners of CTI are proud to offer the next generation of turf products backed up by the strongest warranty in the industry. We believe that as the turf industry's needs change, the products available must evolve as well. CTI was the first to offer longer wearing tines forged from solid rod alloy steel and recently introduced its Phoenix line, bringing Eternal Wear Science (EWS) to tines.
The real benefit of the Phoenix tine is that it will last at least as long as a carbide-tipped tine without the worry of having the risk of having a tip fall off to be found by the next greens mower. By not having bulky carbide tips the cut and core are superior resulting in a hole that is easier to top-dress and recovers much faster. Since Phoenix tines are stronger a thick wall is not necessary. At thinner tine wall results in a larger core diameter and a more effective aerification by removing more material.
All Phoenix tines are warranted to last as long as the equivalent carbide tipped tine.
