Tread gently: BKT introduces tyre for smaller tractors

A new tyre from BKT offers a solution to anyone needing to minimise soil compaction in confined areas. The BKT Agrimax Turf RT 333 is suitable for fitment on small tractors such as those used in gardening applications as well as in orchards and vineyards. The first available sizes in the range are the 280/70 R 16 and 280/70 R 18 front axle dimensions.

BKT says it designed the Agrimax Turf RT 333 with an extra-deep tread (R-3+) that enables better traction on the ground and guarantees an extended lifecycle. Together with the tyre’s directional tread blocks and rounded shoulder, the R-3+ tread also helps reduce soil compaction. The manufacturer also notes that the RT 333 has excellent self-cleaning properties, which make it the ideal solution for users that must frequently travel on the road to transport crops or materials.

The tyre maker hasn’t forgotten the well-being of operators, either. BKT shares that it designed the Agrimax Turf RT 333 to guarantee a high level of driving comfort both in the field and on the road to minimise fatigue. Furthermore, it paid particular attention to developing a tyre with low rolling resistance in order to reduce fuel consumption.
