The Land Pride RC3712 is a heavy-duty 12-foot flex-wing rotary cutter designed for operators who need commercial durability without moving up to a 15-foot batwing. Built for 50 to 160 horsepower tractors, the RC3712 is engineered to tackle demanding pasture maintenance, roadside mowing, CRP acreage, waterways, airports, municipalities, and light right-of-way work. With a 3-inch cutting capacity, rugged driveline, and low tongue weight, it delivers professional performance while remaining easy to pull behind a wide range of utility tractors.
The RC3712 is built for customers who routinely mow rough ground and heavier vegetation. Compared to the RC2512, it nearly doubles the cutting capacity, allowing you to tackle thicker saplings, dense weeds, and heavy pasture growth with confidence.
Its narrow A-frame hitch provides an impressive 80° turning angle, making it easy to maneuver around ponds, terraces, tree lines, and fence rows. Independently floating wings follow uneven terrain for a smooth, even cut while spring-cushioned suspension reduces stress on both the cutter and the tractor.

The RC3712 is an excellent match for:
While the MX5400 and MX6000 can pull the RC3712 in lighter grass, the cutter truly shines behind the M Series, where additional PTO horsepower allows you to maintain higher ground speeds in thick vegetation.
If you mow rough pastures, CRP fields, waterways, or heavy grass with brush up to 3 inches, the RC3712 is a tremendous step up from the RC2512. The heavier frame, larger gearboxes, commercial-grade driveline, and increased cutting capacity are designed for operators who expect to mow hard season after season.
For customers maintaining 100 acres or more, the RC3712 offers an excellent balance of productivity and maneuverability. The 12-foot width fits through many gates that larger batwings cannot, while still covering nearly twice the ground of a 6-foot rotary cutter.
If your work regularly involves saplings larger than 3 inches or commercial right-of-way clearing, you may want to move into Land Pride’s even heavier 47 Series cutters. For the vast majority of farms, ranches, municipalities, and acreage owners, however, the RC3712 delivers commercial-grade durability with outstanding mowing performance.
