The Alliance “Agriflex+ 373” series tires have been designed to equip those tractors that have to cope with mixed field-road uses. Precisely for this purpose, they boast a particular hybrid tread that combines traction, comfort and consumption in the best possible way
Tractors are designed to work in the field and it is no coincidence that they are all equipped as standard with studded tires, designed to transform the driving torques delivered by the engines into pulling torques even when the conditions of the surfaces on which they work are very difficult.
The same tires also perform well during road transfers, although they are not suitable for intensive use on hard soils. However well designed and manufactured, studs by their very nature do in fact give rise to vibrations and noise, also resulting in high energy absorption. It is therefore no coincidence that most tire manufacturers have added new generation tires to their traditional agricultural lines, designed to operate on asphalt, but designed to guarantee excellent traction in the field.
Safety and reliability
A pioneer of this solution was Alliance, a brand belonging to the Yokohama-Atg group, which, in order to better respond to the needs of modern agricultural companies that see tractors used more and more frequently for mixed activities between fields and road transport, did not hesitate to develop a specific product line called “Agriflex+ 373”. These are hybrid tires, in the sense that the tread combines agricultural lugs and central blocks to reconcile the needs of traction in the field with those of stability and comfort on the road, objectives also pursued by proposing a tread depth that is twenty percent greater than a traditional tire, which also guarantees a longer life in terms of wear resistance.
This feature is then combined with a structure made using steel belts certified “Vf”, “Very High Flexion”, therefore capable of moving up to 40 percent more load than a standard tire at the same pressure or of working at lower pressures while maintaining the same load. It is an ideal solution for operations with heavy equipment, such as front loaders, where it is usually necessary to increase the pressures even beyond the limits to compensate for the swinging masses.
Further exclusive features of the tire are the “Slt” technology, “Stratified layer technology”, which guarantees constant traction for the entire useful life of the tire, and an extended warranty over a period of ten years, absolutely one of the highest in the entire agricultural mechanization sector.
