Bowie Aero-Mulchers
Rugged and Dependable Straw Blowers
Models/Sizes Available:
Capability: 7 Tons per Hour
Engine Size: 38 HP Kohler EFI Gas (Air Cooled)
Distance: 60' in Still Air
Typical Uses: Aero-Mulchers, commonly known as Straw Blowers, or Hay Blowers, mechanically shorten and quickly distribute baled hay and straw fibers via a high-speed airstream. The resulting blanket of fibers is often glued together with a sprayed-on tackifier on steep slopes, while rolling and flatter terrain can utilize the quicker and more effective tractor-drawn Bowie Crimp Disc. Blown and crimped (or tacked) hay and straw is a highly effective, low-cost BMP for controlling erosion and sedimentation by quickly establishing vegetation.
Key Features: The Bowie SG-50 is the intermediate workhorse of our manufactured Aero-Mulchers. This unit is powered by a 38 hp Kohler air cooled engine to give years of trouble-free service. The discharge gun has a full 360° horizontal rotation and the fan is dynamically balanced. The six (6) blade 23” fan will generate an airflow of 4500 CFM at a velocity in excess of 120 MPH. The feed tray is fully adjustable with a detachable extension. This unit comes as either a skid or trailer mounted.

The Bowie MG-30 is the smallest of our manufactured Aero-Mulchers. We believe this straw blower to be the strongest of the small models in the industry. This unit is powered by a 25 hp Kohler engine. It has an electric starter with a full pressure lubrication oil cooler and a large dual element air cleaner for the toughest conditions. Our turret spins freely on ball bearings with grease fittings for easy maintenance. This machine comes standard with a vacuum port for those clean-up jobs. The Bowie MG-30 is designed forklift ready for easy loading. The turret is manufactured with enclosed ball bearings to give years of trouble-free operation along with ease of use.
