What is the Red Master Harrow arena drag?

The Red Master Harrow is a commercial-grade arena drag built to prepare the best possible working surface for any horse arena. Its spring-tooth system adds air and cushion to the footing without disturbing the base, while a float bar levels and compresses the surface for a finished, consistent ride. Floyd Fain calls it "one of the most goof-proof horse arena implements" because the free-standing tire design takes operator error out of the equation.

How does the harrow groom and protect your footing?

Three tire-height settings on the guide wheels control cutting depth from 0 to 3 inches, so the tires become your depth control rather than the operator guessing. The spring teeth work up the footing surface and introduce air pockets at the depth you set, while the three-point lift and tire-based design prevent scraping into the base material. The same setup handles both winter and summer arena maintenance.

What does the all-in-one T-Rex add?

The Red Master T-Rex was "designed from the suggestions of our customers who wanted a true all-in-one harrow." It pairs an adjustable ripper with a top link that keeps the harrow level while working ground behind the ripper, two rows of offset s-tines that loosen clods and fluff the soil at 1 to 8 inches of depth, a floating rear paddle wheel for clod-busting and aerating, and a float pan that "smooths the ground and locks air into the ground, providing a finished look."

What else does Red Master Harrow make, and how do you buy?

Beyond drags, the lineup includes the Red Master Roller (6-foot, 8-foot, and special-order 10-foot), water tank kits and 500-gallon and 1,000-gallon water wagons for dust control, plus rippers, paddle wheels, tow-bar hitches, float pans, and in-stock replacement parts like reversing tips, s-tines, and bearings.

The Solution Section (FAQ)
What does Red Master Harrow make?
Red Master Harrow is a horse arena equipment company in Amarillo, Texas that builds commercial-grade arena drags, harrows, watering equipment, and horse-training equipment. Each piece is designed to maximize you and your horse's safety and performance. Owner Floyd Fain runs a 300-acre cattle and horse ranch in Texas and has worked arenas around the country.
What makes a Red Master harrow different from other arena drags?
The adjustable ripper. Red Master's top link attaches the ripper to the harrow and lets you make it as aggressive or non-aggressive as you need, so the harrow stays level and keeps working the ground behind the ripper. Most other arena tools have a fixed ripper, which is what sets Red Master apart as an industry leader.
Which harrow should I choose for synthetic or fiber footing?
The Red Master II and Red Master III work in synthetic, fiber, wood, and dirt arenas. The float pan can be removed and replaced with an optional paddle wheel for different footing types, and the S-tines add air and "cush" back into the surface. The Red Master Travel Right is also designed specifically for synthetic footings, using gauge wheels and coil tines that rake the surface without cutting into your base.
Do you have a harrow built for cutting horses?
Yes. The Red Master Cutter is based on the Red Master II and designed for the deeper depths the cutting industry requires. It has two rows of S-tines set lower for deeper harrowing, cropped teardrop sides to avoid plowing and ease turning, and reaches zero to 6 inches of depth (up to 7 inches with repetitive harrowing and proper moisture). It also performs well in dirt rings for barrel racing, team penning, reining, and rodeo.
I don't own a tractor — can I still groom my arena?
Yes. The Mini-RED is made for facilities without a tractor and can be pulled behind a 4WD ATV, Mule, Gator, or other utility vehicle. It comes with an adjustable float pan that compresses footing to a uniform consistency and an adjustable spring-tooth design that adds air or "cush" back in. It is available in 4-foot, 5-foot, and 6-foot widths.
How can I keep my arena dust down?
Red Master offers a Water Wagon for arena watering and dust control that fits all of their units. It comes in 500-gallon and 1000-gallon sizes, and helps keep your arena as dust-free as possible.
What is the all-in-one option if I have a multi-purpose arena?
The Red Master T-Rex was designed as a true all-in-one harrow for any type of arena, including personal or multi-purpose use. It was developed from customer suggestions and combines a ripper, gauge wheels, S-tines, a paddle wheel, and a float pan in one tool. With its built-in versatility and adjustments, the goal is that you never need another arena tool.

What is the Red Master Harrow?

It uses a spring-tooth system to work up footing and add air and cushion, then a float bar to level and compress the surface for a consistent, finished ride. It is designed to prepare the best possible working surface for any horse arena while protecting the base.
Who owns and makes Red Master Harrow?
Red Master Harrow is owned by Floyd Fain, an experienced team roper who runs a 300-acre cattle and horse ranch in Texas. The business operates as Dirt Tech Engineering dba Red Master Harrow out of Amarillo, Texas. Fain personally uses the equipment he sells, stating the company believes in and trusts its own products.
Where is Red Master Harrow located and how do I contact them?
Red Master Harrow is located at 711 SW 6th Ave, Amarillo, TX 79101. You can reach them by phone at 866-362-9353 or by email at [email protected]. They use a consultation-based approach to match each customer with the right harrow for their discipline, footing, and budget.
What is the Red Master T-Rex?
The Red Master T-Rex is an all-in-one arena harrow designed from customer suggestions for those wanting a single true do-everything drag. It combines an adjustable ripper with a top link, two rows of offset s-tines, a floating rear paddle wheel, and a finishing float pan in one unit. It suits both personal and multi-purpose arenas.
How does the depth control work?
The harrow uses gauge or guide wheels with three tire-height settings to control cutting depth, ranging from 0 to 3 inches on the standard harrow. On the T-Rex you can drop the three-point all the way down and let the tires set the depth, which removes guesswork. The s-tines on the T-Rex adjust from 1 to 8 inches via a top link.
What makes the adjustable ripper different from competitors?
On the T-Rex, the ripper attaches with a top link that lets you make it as aggressive or non-aggressive as you need while keeping the harrow level. Most other arena tools use a fixed ripper that forces you to tilt the entire unit to change aggressiveness. The Red Master design keeps the rest of the drag working the ground evenly behind the ripper.
What sizes and horsepower requirements does the harrow have?
The Red Master Harrow comes in 6-foot, 8-foot, and 10-foot widths. The 6-foot requires about 20 hp, the 8-foot about 22 hp, and the 10-foot about 24 hp. Matching tractor power to width ensures the implement pulls and works the footing properly.
Is the equipment made in the USA?
Yes. Red Master Harrow states that all of its products are manufactured in the good ole USA. The company builds its equipment in Amarillo, Texas, rather than importing it.
What kind of warranty comes with Red Master Harrow equipment?
All of Red Master Harrow's frames carry a lifetime warranty. The frames are built from 4 x 3/16-inch wall structural tubing with double-braced lift brackets, and components like reversible tips and 650-point bearing assemblies are engineered for longevity.
What is the Red Master Roller used for?
The Red Master Roller offers all-season maintenance and lets you control air pockets for wet-to-dry versatility in your footing. It comes in 6-foot, 8-foot, and special-order 10-foot sizes. It can be pulled behind a tractor on its own or combined with a harrow for a complete grooming pass.
Does Red Master Harrow offer dust-control and watering equipment?
Yes. The company offers water tank kits along with 500-gallon and 1,000-gallon water wagons for arena dust control. Keeping footing properly watered reduces dust and helps maintain consistent, safe ground for horses.
What replacement parts are available?
Red Master Harrow stocks replacement parts including reversing tips, s-tines, and bearings, with several parts in stock and ready to ship. The reversible (double-sided) tips extend the working life of the implement. Parts can be ordered through the company directly or its online parts store.
What do the s-tines and paddle wheel do?
The two rows of offset s-tines loosen up clods and fluff the ground, adding air to the soil at a set depth. The rear paddle wheel breaks clods and adds more air to the soil, and on the T-Rex it is designed to float so it does not drag dirt or dig holes in the arena during turns. Together they condition the footing before the float pan finishes the surface.
What disciplines is Red Master Harrow equipment built for?
Red Master Harrow serves a wide range of equine disciplines including Hunter/Jumper, Dressage, Western Performance, Western All-Around, Rodeo, Barrel Racing, Roping, and Reining. Floyd Fain helps each customer choose the right harrow based on their specific discipline and footing needs. The focus is on proper footing for both performance and safety.
Will the harrow damage my arena base?
No. The three-point lift and free-standing tire design prevent the harrow from scraping into the base material, so it only works the surface footing you want conditioned. Setting the tires as your depth control keeps the cut consistent and protects the foundation underneath. This is part of why Red Master calls it one of the most goof-proof arena implements.
Is financing available, and how do I order?
Yes, financing is available through Red Master Harrow. To order or get a recommendation, call 866-362-9353 or email [email protected], and they will tailor a solution to your goals and budget. Replacement parts can also be ordered through their online parts store.
Can the same harrow be used year-round?
Yes. The Red Master Harrow is designed to function for both winter and summer arena maintenance, with the spring teeth introducing air pockets at your chosen depth in any season. The Red Master Roller adds wet-to-dry versatility by letting you control air pockets as conditions change. This makes the equipment a year-round footing-maintenance solution.
