DescriptionWhy buy the William Hackett H-HG06 Chain Harrow?
The H-HG06 sits between the smaller ATV-scale mats and the 8 ft tractor-scale unit in the William Hackett range. At 1.8m wide it clears a paddock noticeably faster than the narrower options, but at 51 kg it still rides happily behind a quad or 4x4. A practical pick if you've outgrown a smaller mat but don't want to hitch up the tractor every time.
What it does on grass
Fixed tines bite in one direction with an aggressive scarifying action — pulling thatch out of the sward, opening the surface for air and water, and knocking down mole hills as you go. Run it over menages and gallops to keep the going consistent.
Hitch options beyond the tractor
The ring hitch couples to compact tractors, ATVs and 4x4s alike — and, per William Hackett, to a working horse with a bit of ingenuity. That flexibility is the point: one mat, whatever you've got in the yard.
- Working width 1.8m (6 ft) — covers paddock acreage in fewer passes than the narrower mats in the range
- Weight 51 kg — within ATV and 4x4 towing range
- Overall dimensions 180 × 152 cm
- Ring/pin hitch — fits tractors, ATVs and 4x4s
- Fixed one-way tine action — aggressive single-direction scarifying, not reversible
- Heavy steel drawbar tube with welded spacer bar for rigidity across the width
- Carbon steel construction for wear resistance through repeated paddock work
- British made by William Hackett

Review Your William Hackett H-HG06
Yes I think the harrow is great, does what it says and price was reasonable. its lasting well
We’ve now purchased a 4ft Harrow and just recently a 6ft Harrow. I had cause to speak to one of the staff for advice on the harrows and they couldn’t have been more helpful. I made online purchases in both instances which were quick and easy. The harrows work perfectly. We use them in our horse paddocks all the time and have helped greatly improve the ground/grass after those pesky horses make such a mess!! Have not seen our fields looking as well for a long time. Great product and easy efficient transactions both times with knowledgeable aftersales help. Highly recommended.
The drag Harrow and Menage Unit have been great, also because I can deal with the equipment with out the help of other people and both fit on my Gator
its used for paddock harrowing on an equestrian facility, its big enough to do the job we require and small enough to manhandle and use behind a gator. Does the job we bought it for very well
A really efficient prompt service, and we love the grass harrow we bought. It's doing a great job!
A great product. Very sturdy, just the job for a light harrow.
So far so good

I have found this an excellent machine and it has performed very well 5 out of 5 and I would highly recommend it to others
I’m happy to endorse the product as below. Good luck in your endeavours. I have found the small chain harrow well made and easy to use. It is just about manageable by one person. I tow it around the edges of my small-holding fields behind an old landrover using just the tow bar but avoiding reversing. It is sturdy, quite easy to clean up and seems happy being stored outside with any slight rust rubbing off when the harrow is next used. If I get the time of season right it knocks back the encroaching bracken, brambles and nettles with two or three applications in a year. I would give it 5 out of 5 for doing what is demanded of it; and speed of delivery and help unloading were all first class.
I actually bought this for a neighbour who had a larger harrow that was better for me. As far as I am aware he has been very happy with it.

Good advice pre purchase. The order came quickly and was well packaged. The harrows are good quality and do the job well. Very competitive price.
The Harrow did the job required. It was the right size for my mini tractor and the size of our fields, so I’d rate it 5 for my needs but they were very specific.
We have been very pleased with our purchase. It has been used in our pony paddocks to great effect. Consider it great value, and would highly recommend.
I've used the harrow a few times now on my wildflower meadow. I have towed it behind a Gator and a compact tractor. It's light enough to lift manually to transport in the rear bed of a Gator to and from the field, very easy to set up, sometimes gets clogged with dead grass and mud but relatively easy to clear, and leaves a good finish. It was also useful with the tines pointing down to disturb soil before sowing wildflower seed, then used to run over the area again with the harrow flipped over (tines up) to level the ground after sowing rather than using a roller.
We are very pleased with our harrow and have had no issues at all. It was very good value for money and is perfect for our needs (harrowing horse manure into our paddocks).
It’s a simple bit of kit that’s done its job until next season and will sit in the yard until called upon.
I really like this small harrow, it’s easy to use and small enough to store. I do apply a little bit of extra weight for the harrow, normally consisting on a tractor tyre when harrowing the field but for my arena this is not required it works perfectly on its own as it is. I would highly recommend this piece if equipment!
I am very satisfied with this harrow and would recommend it to others. It is well made and did the job helping me level a paddock for sewing grass seed to cover patches. I would give this harrow 5/5.
The chain harrows do a good job if used as per weather conditions, very happy with them

Chain Harrows
Well made good quality product, at a very attractive price. Arrived two days early! The harrows make a fine finish on my outside jumping arena.
Straight forward really
Straight forward really. However, the link to my bank only took me to personal banking and therefore I couldn’t use my business account to pay. I really wanted that £3 discount..!!!
Good value and service
I initially phoned the company to ask for some more details of the product. They were very helpful and contacted the manufacturer and I received a very prompt answer to my question. I ordered the harrow and received good communication from the company. Unfortunately the delivery came a day later than I was told but this was an issue with the courier and not the company. I have used the harrow and am happy with the product, it works well.
Heavy sturdy and capable.
Great product, well priced and speedy delivery.
Very pleased with the quality!
All great.
Brilliant piece of kit for use on a quad or even with a small pony ;) I’ve recommended this on an equestrian land management page. Well-made and really did a good job on our paddocks
Excellent product
