Maxam Tire North America Inc. has unveiled new VF sizes within the AgriXtra product line and introducing the new MS971R tire.
The new MS971R TracXtra has been designed to work in environments of agro-industrial applications.
Combining a robust casing structure with steel-belted radial construction, the new TracXtra has been engineered to be used across a variety of terrains including in the field, on highways or in on/off-road conditions.
Other features and benefits of the tire include radial MPT (R-4) tread depth, optimized rolling resistance, all-season traction and self-cleaning designs, D-rated high-speed tire and more.
Along with the introduction of the MS971R TracXtra, Maxam is bolstering its VF technology presence across its AgriXtra N, H and XL series.
The new VF sizes allow operators to carry 40% more load at standard air pressure or reduce pressure by 40% for the same load, according to Maxam officials.
By increasing load capacity or decreasing tire inflation pressure, Maxam says it helps farmers and growers minimize soil compaction, improve traction, save fuel and ultimately increase efficiency
The AgriXtra 85 (VF580/85R42) is ideal for large combine harvesters operating dual-drive tires found in row crop farming.
The AgriXtra N (VF420/95R50) is ideal for large self-propelled high-clearance sprayers and tractors.
The AgriXtra H (VF750/65R25, VF520/80R26, VF620/70R26) is engineered for heavy-load steer axles of harvesters and the AgriXtra XL (e.g., VF900/60R42) is tailored for large mechanical front wheel drive tractors.
“Our expansion of VF technology within the AgriXtra product lines and the launch of the MS971R reflect Maxam’s commitment to delivering innovative, reliable solutions that align with the real-world challenges farmers and growers face,” says Greg Gilland, vice president of Global Agriculture at Maxam Tire.
“We recognize the immense effort that goes into maximizing yield and productivity, and we are committed to developing products that make this work easier, more efficient and more sustainable.”
