TRACTION
High level of traction
Large footprint to transmit traction to the ground.
■ Footprint larger than standard tyres
Faster working due to better traction through larger footprint and longer, deeper and wider lugs.
■ Compared to its predecessor, Firestone’s MAXI TRACTION 65 is engineered to last longer, while delivering excellent performance throughout its entire life. This is due to its 11% deeper, 9% wider, 24% longer lugs, its wider section and increased lug overlaps.
Dual Angle lug design to increase traction and limit soil disturbance
■ Firestone’s unique and patented Dual Angle Lug design has a greater contact area than a standard lug. The patented Dual Angle Lug design combined with its large surface area gives excellent traction.
PRESSURE
Working at pressure between 0.6 bar and 1.6 bar, with a load bonus at 10 km/h and at 2.0 bar.
■ For 3 Extra Load sizes: working pressure is between 0.6 bar and 2.4 bar.
■ Robust casing and improved resistance thanks to Firestone’s strong and long-lasting casing and the wear-resistant compound.
SOIL CARE
Good soil protection
■ Large footprint ensures a better load distribution on soil, reducing compaction.
LOAD CAPACITY
High capacity
■ On the road: carrying bigger loads means fewer transport cycles. At same speed and same pressure, you gain load capacity versus standard series.
■ 3 Extra Load sizes: a selected range of tyre sizes has been developed to fulfill the high load requirements of special farming applications like front-loader applications. It allows an extra load capacity at higher pressure.
