BKT Heads to Farm Progress Show

Balkrishna Industries Ltd. (BKT) is taking its farm tires to the Farm Progress Show Aug. 29-31 in Decatur, Ill.

Among the tires on display will be the AgriMax Teris in size 750/65 R 26 for high-powered harvesters and cotton pickers. The AgriMax RT 855 in size 480/80 R 50 is designed for tillage and transport operations in the fields and on the road, but it also works on sprayers and for grape harvesting.

The Agrimax RT 600 in size IF 1250/50 R 32 is made for combines, spreaders and tractors, while the AgriMax Spargo in size VF 480/80 R 46 highlights very high flexion technology to carry heavier loads with reduced inflation pressure.

The Rib 713 tire in size 320/70 R 15 is designed for tillage implements, while the TF 8181 and TR 135 are two bias tires for transportation and tillage operations.

BKT also will take tires for ATVs and gardening applications, including the Sierra Max W 207 and the BogMax. Plus, the off-the-road, all-stel radial EarthMax SR 30 in size 20.5 R 25 will be on display. It's a good option for articulated dump trucks in tough operating conditions.

The tiremaker, the exclusive tire manufacturer for Monster Jam, will also take the Max-D monster truck to the show, fitted with special 65-inch tires.
