Utility tractor tyres
BKT engineers have designed a tyre range especially for compact utility tractors to ensure they are easy-to-handle and low in operating costs.
These tractors are an invaluable asset in day-to-day farm operations, and BKT has kept a key aspect within their design, fuel efficiency.
Advanced engines and thoughtful tyre design now enable these tractors to deliver high performance alongside low fuel consumption.
With the right tyres fitted, these models can adapt to all types of terrain without compromising traction, making them essential for small to medium farms and contractors.
Ergonomics and driving comfort are hallmarks obtained when fitted with current tyre designs from the AGRIMAX RT range, especially when it comes to operating cycles, where handling is a vital operation element.
At the same time, operators can be assured of endurance, especially when they have to cope with difficult terrain and demanding ground conditions for tillage operations, where powerful traction and good grip are required even on loose soil.
Operators will also notice when an AGRIMAX RT is fitted during transport and during material handling operations that often require a loader attachment, where compactness and precision manoeuvring are essential in tight spaces.
