Maintenance Tips

Agriculture requires a special breed of tyres. The basic function of the agricultural or farm tyre is its capacity to perform work in an off-the-road environment. However, since farm machinery must often be transported from field to field, the tyres in use may regularly negotiate paved highways, gravel roads or narrow rutted dirt roads as well.

Combine these two basic performance areas with the dynamics of the soil conditions in which farm tyres may be used, and it becomes clear that the farm tyre stable must be versatile, economical, efficient, and properly applied.

The correct application of the agricultural tyre will translate into high productivity, long life and tyre durability.AgriculturaI tyres are designed to carry a specific load at a specific inflation pressure when mounted on a specific width rim. When these conditions are met, the deflection of the tyre carcass is in the optimum range and maximum tyre performance can be expected. If the combinations of these design dynamics are altered for any reason, tyre performance is reduced.
