Aug. 19, 2015

Balkrishna Industries Ltd. (BKT) will display new agricultural tires and new sizes at Agritechnica 2015 in Hannover, Germany, Nov. 8-14, in hall 4, booth D22.

The tires are:

Ridemax IT 697 M+S. The company says this winter tire for tractors ensures perfect grip for all operations on icy and snowy land without the need for snow chains. Thanks to the tread grooves and the special mix, a tractor can be driven in full stability, comfort and with maximum control at low temperatures on roads that are difficult and dangerous due to snow and ice.

Ridemax FL 693 M. BKT will display this radial tire for agricultural trailers in a new size 600/55 R 26.5. The company says its self-cleaning tread reduces rolling resistance decreasing fuel consumption and is the ideal choice for mainly road usage with high loading capacity.

FL 630 Ultra. This tire for spreaders, trailers and tank trucks will be displayed in the new size 710/50 R 26.5. Thanks to its large number of lugs as well as the reinforced bead, this versatile and resistant tire is ideal for a mixed usage both on the road and in the fields, according to BKT.

FL 630 Super. BKT will display the FL 630 Super tire in the new size 750/60 R 26.5. Qualities like uniform drive and resistance are much appreciated on the road, while construction features and tread design make the tire suitable for multi-purpose use on any terrain.

Agrimax Spargo. This tire line for sprayers and row crop applications will be present in size VF 380/85 R 38. The technology of the Agrimax Spargo series allows for supporting heavier loads at the same pressure compared to that of a standard tire of the same size, according to BKT.

Agrimax Force. This radial tire for 4WD high-powered tractors (over 250 HP) will be displayed in size IF 650/85 R 42. The company says Agrimax Force has been engineered through the development of a special concept of the IF technology, offering customers an always increased loading capacity at lower pressure values compared to a standard tire.
