BKT launches RIB 713: a new radial tyre for farming implements featuring IF technology

BKT-tyre

Made for agricultural implements, the new RIB 713tyre, size 280/70 R 15, is designed to reduce soil compaction and withstand punctures.

Not even the newest amateur gardener on the block would think of planting lettuce in a walkway, or worse,in an area where heavy wheel barrows are transported. Packed and compacted earth due to wheeled vehicles running overloses most of its fertility. Yet, this is exactly the kind of dilemma today’s farmers, who use tractors and bulky implements often loaded with fertilizers and seeds, are faced with.

As a response to the needs of modern agriculture for reduced soil compaction, BKT has specially developed the new RIB 713 with IF technology. Increased Flexion Technology allows for heavier load carrying capacity at the same inflation pressures as compared to a standard tyre of the same size.This feature along with a larger footprint area provides uniform weight distribution and excellent flotation properties – all essential features for best farming performance.

The new RIB 713 tyre has steel belting for increased stubble and penetration resistance.This common risk especially during harvest season is a matter of increasing awareness and concern among American farmers who grow large-scale GMO products. These plants are indeed incredibly husky leaving strong stubbles on the land that can ruin tyres.

In addition, “D” speed rating ensures that the RIB 713 tyre runs up to 40 mph (65 km/h) on the road – best requisites for quick travel from one piece of farmland to another. Currently available in size IF 280/70 R 15, this tyre offers increased load capacity operating at standard inflation pressure.

In a nutshell,BKT’s continued commitment to innovation and extensive experience in the field has once again led to the launch of a unique tyre,which has been designed to provide optimum performance, protect the soil and deliver a long and trouble-free service life.
