BKT sees the forest through the trees

Dec. 8, 2010

BKT (USA) Inc. is marketing a new forestry tire size for its TR 678 line. Designed for use on forestry harvester machines, the 14-ply tire is now available in size 600/65-34.

The 520-pound tire features the following:

* a robust lug design that provides traction and self-cleaning capability;

* strong casing construction that the company says guarantees heavy load-carrying capability;

* steel belts that protect the tire from punctures and damage; and

* a cut-and-chip-resistant tread compound designed for severe terrain conditions.
