Alliance Agriflex+ 377XT, heavy-duty tires
Japanise tire manufacturer Yokohama-ATG (Y-ATG) is launching a new tubeless tire for heavy-duty vehicles such as spreaders and self-propelled boom sprayers. The Alliance Agriflex+ 377XT – the latest creation from Yokohama – is available in three different sizes, designed for lifting heavy loads without placing excessive pressure on the ground thanks to its wide footprint and rounded shoulders. Very High Flexion (VF) and Stratified Layer Technology (SLT) also allow the Agriflex+ 377XT to carry 40% more load at the same inflation pressure as standard tires (or the same load at 40% lower inflation pressure) while the stratified lugs increase traction. The robust steel carcass and anti-stubble protection ensure maximum tire life even in the most demanding working conditions. The Agriflex+ 377XT model, featuring a D speed index and a directional tread, will initially be offered in the sizes VF750/50R26, VF650/65R38 and VF620/70R46, but in the next few months the Japanese manufacturer should launch three more, VF1000/50R25, VF1050/50R32 and VF750/60R46.
