## Main features

### Traction

#### High level of traction

**Bigger footprint** to better transmit tractive force to the ground.

**Dual Angle lug design to increase traction and limit soil disturbance**

- 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

**Robust casing and flexible sidewalls allow a increased flexion:**

- 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

## Product range

### Construction

**Radial**

### Technology

IF (Increased Flexion)
