Nitrogen Stabilizers
N-GEAR® Dual Action
- Up to three weeks of above-ground protection from volatilization
- Reduces below-ground nitrogen loss due to leaching
- Increases nitrogen efficiency, availability and uptake
- Helps build soil biological activity; non-toxic to soil bacteria and non-corrosive to equipment
- Formulated for urea and UAN, and works with multiple fertilizer sources
N-GEAR® Dual Action gives you the flexibility of both above- and below-ground nitrogen protection. N-GEAR Dual Action is specifically formulated for use in urea and UAN scenarios.
Micro-Chain Technology captures and maintains more nitrogen in the upper root zone, increasing nitrogen uptake and utilization. The NH4 molecules are more densely packed, leading to more binding sites to limit nitrogen loss.

Directions for Use
Urea blending: May be used to treat urea prior to application in the field, including pre-treatment. Under certain temperature and humidity conditions, urea blended with N-GEAR Dual Action may stick together. Application of urea to the field is recommended soon after treatment for best results.
UAN solutions: May be mixed with liquid fertilizers such as aqua ammonia or other liquid ammoniacal or urea nitrogen fertilizers. Liquid fertilizers containing high levels of phosphate should not be used with N-GEAR Dual Action. If pesticides are added to the tank mix in conjunction with liquid fertilizers, a compatibility jar test should be performed prior to large-scale application to the field.
Liquid manure: May be mixed with liquid animal manures. N-GEAR Dual Action may be applied to a slurry pit or through an injection system as material is loaded into the applicator.
