Trelleborg extends TM100 ag tire range

April 26, 2012

Trelleborg Wheel Systems Americas Inc. has introduced two new sizes into its TM100 range of tires designed for row-crop applications. The new sizes are the 380/90R50 151A8 (151B) and 380/90R54 158A8 (158B.)

Suitable for medium and high mechanical front-wheel drive (MFWD) tractors and small sprayers, the 380/90R50 TM100 is mainly employed in inter-row sowing applications and can also be used in dual assemblies for traction in open fields.

The new sizes have an R1-W tread pattern with a lug height about 20% deeper than an equivalent R1 tire to give traction tread in wet and muddy soil conditions.

“Adding these two sizes to our product offering is important to satisfy both our original equipment and replacement customers,” says Marketing Manager Agricultural and Forestry Tires in the U.S., Andrea Masella. “We look forward to the quality of our products and services helping them increase their profitability even more.”

The TM100 tires have a strong casing construction, which combined with their material, ensure high load capacity and exceptional resistance to tire fatigue. With the incorporation of these new sizes, the Trelleborg TM100 range is now available in 11 sizes from 32 to 54 inches.
