Improve Lawn Health and Appearance
The Allett C-Range Turf Rake Cartridge is a highly effective tool for any serious gardener or groundskeeper looking to maintain a pristine lawn. Its primary function is to lift lateral grass growth, remove unwanted moss, and clear away dead organic material, a process essential for lawn vitality. Now featuring longer tines, this popular cartridge offers even better collection performance, ensuring a thorough clean-up of your turf.
Versatile Application for Lawns and Pitches
Beyond standard lawn care, the Turf Rake proves invaluable for sports turf maintenance. It can be used to efficiently remove broken blades of grass after football matches and even to clear footprints left by players, helping to restore the playing surface quickly. This versatility makes it one of Allett’s most sought-after cartridges for both domestic and professional users.
The Importance of Thatch Management
Thatch—a layer of dead turf material—can severely impact the health of your grass by preventing vital nutrients, water, oxygen, and fertilisers from reaching the grassroots. A thick layer of thatch can render lawn treatments ineffective and create a breeding ground for fungal diseases like fusarium and red thread. While a thin layer of up to 1/4 inch is considered healthy, anything more requires action. On high-performance surfaces, excessive thatch can negatively affect the smoothness and speed of ball roll, as well as the ball bounce (cleg reading), making its removal critical for sports applications.

Frequently Asked Questions
Frequently Asked Questions
How often should I use the Allett Turf Rake cartridge?
The frequency depends on your lawn’s condition. For general maintenance and removing lateral growth, using it every 2-4 weeks during the growing season is beneficial. For more intensive thatch and moss removal, it’s best used in spring and autumn as part of your seasonal lawn renovation.
What is thatch and why is it bad for my lawn?
Thatch is a layer of organic debris, dead grass, and moss that builds up between the green blades and the soil surface. A thick layer (over 1/4 inch) can suffocate the lawn by preventing water, air, and nutrients from reaching the roots. It can also harbour pests and diseases, leading to a weak and unhealthy lawn.
Will this cartridge fit my Allett mower?
This is designed to to fit Allett’s C-Range cylinder mowers. It is part of the interchangeable cartridge system for these models. If you are unsure about compatibility with your specific mower, please contact our expert team for advice.
Can the Turf Rake be used on a sports pitch?
Yes, absolutely. The Turf Rake is highly effective on sports pitches. It’s used for removing debris after matches, clearing players’ footprints, and managing thatch levels, which can improve ball speed and bounce consistency.
