FAIRLAWN, Ohio (April 27, 2012)—Trelleborg Wheel Systems has added two sizes—380/90R50 151A8 (151B) and 380/90R54 158A8 (158B)—to its TM100 range of agricultural tires specifically designed for row-crop applications.
Suitable for medium and high mechanical front-wheel drive tractors and small sprayers, the 380/90R50 TM100 targets inter-row sowing applications and can also be used in dual assemblies for traction in open fields, according to Trelleborg.
The new sizes have an R1-W tread pattern with a lug height about 20 percent deeper than an equivalent R1 tire to provide traction in wet and muddy soil conditions, the company said.
With the additional sizes, the TM100 range is available in 11 sizes from 32 to 54 inches in rim diameter.
