The introduction of the Forest King F2 780mm (30.5 inch) tyre is an important advancement for the forestry industry as the demand for more productive equipment grows.
“In forestry, productivity is crucial. Demand for more productive equipment is pushing machine manufacturers to develop forwarders capable of transporting more wood with fewer driving cycles,” explains Teemu Vainionpää, Product Manager at Nokian Heavy Tyres.
“The 780mm (30.5 inch) tyre size for our Forest King F2 tyre family is a direct response to this demand, offering increased load capacity and improved performance to meet the needs of the latest generation of forwarders,” Teemu added.
Complete wheel delivers step up in performance
The larger air volume of the additional Forest King F2 tyre size enables a step forward in load capacity, while the increased wheel diameter improves the tyre-wheel contact area, resulting in increased tolerance against rim slip.
The design of the tyre, with its strong shoulders and protective tread, ensures excellent performance with tracks in terms of grip and support to track paws.
To fully utilise the performance upgrade available with the 780mm (30.5 inch) tyre, Nokian is offering it available as a complete wheel with a matching heavy-duty wheel (size AG26.00×30.5) and inner tube (size 780/55-30.5).
Working as a perfect match, the complete wheel complements the tyre properties for the best possible forestry performance.
