BKT debuts its biggest agri radial tyre at SIMA
With AGRIMAX FORCE IF 750/75 R 46, BKT demonstrates being able to face market challenges by displaying advanced project engineering, and by inaugurating the era of giant tyres. AGRIMAX FORCE is the ideal combination of efficiency, productivity, flexibility, and resistance, according to the company. This latest-generation tyre has all qualities to equip high-power tractors over 250 hp. Thanks to the IF technology, AGRIMAX FORCE operates with a lower inflation pressure compared to a standard tyre carrying the same load. Besides, it offers tilling equipment a larger footprint on the soil, leading to high flotation capacity along with a uniform load distribution of loads at low pressure.
BKT also showcased the tyre FL 630 SUPER sized 650/55 R 26.5 in the new version with HD (Heavy Duty) compound. Especially designed for the combined use on the road and in the fields, FL 630 SUPER is part of the Flotation range that distinguishes by extraordinary flotation features.

On the occasion, it is equipped with RIDEMAX IT 697 in its new M+S marked size (Mud+Snow). Ideal for winter applications, the particular tread grooves and the special compound ensure extraordinary stability on terrains covered by snow and ice. Yet, RIDEMAX IT 697 M+S is an all season product designed for road transport, and green maintenance and cleaning operations. Also in this case, it is a new size, namely 710/70 R 42 that is fitted on the tractor?s rear axle, whereas the front axle is fitted with version 600/70 R 30.
