Maxi Traction IF

Main features

Traction

High level of traction

• Firestone’s unique and patented Dual Angle Lug design delivers a greater soil contact area than a standard lug.
• The Dual Angle Lug, combined with its large surface area, provides strong grip and excellent traction.

Pressure

Working at reduced pressure down to 0.6 bar
Pressure range: 0.6 to 2.4 bar

• for a same load, an IF tyre can work at lower inflation pressure. The strong bead enables work at low pressure.

Soil care

Maximum protection

• IF technology reduce soil compaction thanks to bigger footprint. The footprint increases by +32% when lowering pressure from 2.4 bar to 1.3 bar.
• Thanks to IF technology, you operate at lower inflation pressure, reducing soil compaction and thus delivering a greater yield.

Load capacity

High capacity

• On the road: carrying bigger loads means fewer transport cycles. At same speed and same pressure, you gain up to 20% load capacity versus standard tyre.

Reduction of operating costs

Increases productivity through

Maxi Traction IF tyres contribute to operating costs reduction through:

• Time savings: no need to adjust pressure from road to field.

• Potential fuel savings thanks to better traction.
• Time savings on road: tyre can carry a load up to 20% heavier compared with a standard tyre.
  The advantages? Fewer transport cycles on the road, lower costs.

Self-cleaning

Improved tread design with asymmetric lugs.

Driving comfort and safety

Excellent road behaviour and increased ride comfort:

• Flexible sidewall absorbs more road surface undulations for a smoother ride.
• Long, overlapping lugs ensure a smoother ride.
• Reinforced carcass to carry heavy loads at reduced pressure.

Wear

High durability even in extreme conditions:

• Extremely robust carcass, reinforced structure to increase load capacity and reinforced bead profile to secure the tyre/rim interface.

Damage resistance

Very high resistance

• Reinforced carcass construction for increased strength
• Wear resistance compound

Fuel consumption

Contributes to reduce fuel consumption due to its much larger footprint which better traction.

Return on investment

Very good

Stability

Optimum stability even in extreme conditions
