Animal Drawn Disc Plough – Built for Tough Fields, Backed by China’s Finest Casting
First published: March 2026 · Updated for trade buyers
Are you sourcing an animal drawn disc plough that combines traditional reliability with modern foundry precision? Whether you need a complete unit for small‑scale farming or OEM components for your own brand, Shijiazhuang TJJ TRADE provides custom‑cast disc ploughs with ISO‑certified quality, short lead times, and flexible MOQs. Our twenty‑year‑old casting factory delivers the strength and wear resistance that animal‑powered implements demand – without the inflated mark‑ups of western manufacturers.
The Real Challenges of Sourcing Animal‑Drawn Disc Ploughs
Import managers and brand owners often face three recurring frustrations when buying animal drawn disc ploughs from overseas suppliers:
- Inconsistent quality – thin castings crack under heavy clay, blades dull quickly, and bearings fail within one season.
- Long lead times – many factories prioritise larger orders, leaving small‑ to mid‑volume buyers waiting 60–90 days.
- Poor after‑sales support – replacement parts are unavailable, and technical drawings are not shared.
Our approach reverses each of these pain points. Because we own a domestic foundry with over two decades of experience, every animal drawn disc plough we produce starts with rigorous material selection, precision sand casting, and full inspection before shipping. We maintain spare‑part stocks for at least five years after delivery, and our engineering team provides OEM/ODM design modifications at no extra prototyping cost for first orders.
“We were tired of replacing imported ploughs every season. TJJ’s animal drawn disc plough not only lasted – the team also helped us redesign the hitch to match our local bullocks.”
— Carlos M., Import Manager, Ecuador
Why TJJ’s Animal Drawn Disc Plough Stands Out
We don’t just supply a product – we engineer a solution that fits your local soil, draft animals, and budget. Below are the core advantages that our animal drawn disc plough offers to importers, wholesalers, and private‑label brands.
1. Casting Expertise That Delivers Strength & Longevity
Our factory (founded in 2004) specialises in high‑quality grey and ductile iron castings. Each disc plough frame, disc hub, and blade is cast with controlled metallurgy to resist wear and impact. Disc diameters range from 400 mm to 600 mm (custom sizes available), with heat‑treated edges for prolonged life in abrasive soils.
| Parameter | Standard Range | Remarks |
|---|---|---|
| Number of discs | 2, 3, 4 discs | Up to 6 discs on request |
| Disc diameter | 400–600 mm | Custom sizes available |
| Total weight | 80–200 kg | Depends on number of discs |
| Material - Frame | Ductile iron / Mild steel | OEM choice |
| Draft power required | 2 adult oxen / 2 horses | Also adaptable to mules |
| Working depth | 10–25 cm | Adjustable via screw mechanism |

2. Full Customisation & OEM/ODM Design

Every animal drawn disc plough can be tailored to your market requirements:
- Branding – powder‑coated in your colours, with your logo cast into the frame or on a metal plate.
- Hitch type – single‑point, double‑yoke, or local animal harness adapters.
- Disc angle – horizontal and vertical angles can be adjusted for aggressive cutting in hard soil or lighter furrow in sandy conditions.
- Accessories – spare discs, plough shares, bearings, and scraper blades supplied in bulk.
Our in‑house engineering team (with 3 senior designers) can modify an existing design or develop a new one from your sketches – prototypes are usually ready in 15–20 days after drawing approval.
3. Compliance, Certifications & Quality Control
All TJJ products are manufactured under an ISO 9001:2015 quality management system. While animal‑drawn implements are not required to bear CE marking for the US market, we can provide CE declaration (for EU shipments) or any other regional certification upon request. Every batch undergoes:
- Chemical composition analysis (spectrometer)
- Hardness and tensile strength tests
- Dimensional inspection with CMM
- Assembly and functional test (disc rotation, frame alignment)
A full inspection report is issued with each shipment.

Trusted by Importers, Brand Owners & Wholesalers Across the Globe
Our animal drawn disc plough has been shipped to over 25 countries in the last 36 months. Here is what actual buyers say (unsolicited feedback, shared with permission):
“We imported 100 disc ploughs last year for the Ethiopian market. TJJ’s quality is superior to any Indian supplier we tried – the discs hold an edge much longer and the frame doesn’t twist after a month of use. Their customisation on the hitch was spot‑on.”
— Samuel K., Procurement Manager, Kenya
“I own a small farm in Pennsylvania and bought a 3‑disc animal drawn plough from TJJ through a local distributor. The assembly was simple and it worked beautifully behind my two draft horses. Very impressed with the cast iron quality.”
— Mark T., Farmer / Brand Owner, USA
“We distribute farm tools in Colombia and needed a reliable OEM partner. TJJ created a private‑label version of their disc plough for us with custom packaging and branding. The lead time was just 38 days – exactly as promised.”
— Luisa R., Sourcing Agent, Colombia
Additionally, TJJ’s factory holds a certificate of registration as a qualified casting exporter and has been audited by SGS and Intertek for social compliance. Our team of 85 skilled workers, 6 QC inspectors, and 5 engineers ensures that every animal drawn disc plough leaving our workshop meets the stringent requirements of the North American and European markets.
