Did you know that that most incidents involving harvesting tyres occur at the very beginning of the season and that the issues arising are generally the consequences of a problem encountered during the previous season? A minor impact to the sidewall, improper storage during the winter, driving with an excess load during the preceding harvest often lead to weak points which could result in the...

When you decide to change tyre size, it’s to obtain more longitudinal traction, less compaction and therefore better care for your soil. If you make the decision to increase tyre size, it’s to improve the performance of your tractor, but be careful in terms of the mechanical performance of agricultural tyres… Behind this little known notion lies the question of lead, which is an essential aspect...

Unlike a car, a tractor is a multi-purpose vehicle which can carry or pull much more than its own weight, over all types of terrain. These demands are managed by your tyres and the disparity between these demands is the reason why it is important to always have the right pressure settings, to make your equipment last over time. Carrying out pressure adjustments may seem insignificant, but for...

Why is the choice of tyre size so vital? The contact patch between the tyres of a tractor and the ground may not seem significant, but this is where the key to vehicle performance lies. Whether for the transmission of engine power, ensuring good traction or protecting your soil, the choice of tyre has an influence on your productivity, your yield and, at the end of the day, on your...

In wet conditions, work in the fields can easily become problematic when you don’t have the self-cleaning capacity of your tractor tyres or implements under tight control. Slip effectively always begins with too much earth accumulating between the tyre lugs without you really knowing why. Yet when you start to slip, working gets complicated, the tyres seal over the soil, there is loss of...

When it comes to choosing new tyres, your decision can have a direct impact on productivity and farm yields. How can you be sure of choosing the right agricultural tyre from among an offering that is always so diversified? The answer often lies in the experience of those who use them. There is no better proof of quality than a user testimonial. Technical data sheets and manufacturer promises are...

Agricultural tyres, while often neglected, are a key part of your business equipment. Whether for working in the fields, transport by road or manoeuvres in the farm courtyard, their role is decisive in ensuring the smooth running of your operations. A puncture while working or a breakdown can rapidly transform your day into a nightmare: immobilisation of the tractor, loss of time and money or...

The calculation of the load transfer to your agricultural tyres is absolutely vital to ensure that your equipment performs well and to preserve soil quality. Poor management of load and too much load transfer to the axles can cause major problems: soil compaction, slippage, premature tyre wear and damage. For farmers, too much load not only compromises the efficiency of operations, it also leads...

Difficult weather conditions are only to be expected for many farmers. Abundant rain, waterlogged soil and muddy land make working in the fields quite tricky. You have most likely already experienced these frustrating situations: incessant slippage which slows down your work rate, fuel consumption on the rise, or even ruts and soil compaction which compromise future harvests. These issues, far...
