Selecting the right tyre for your agricultural equipment can significantly impact productivity, fuel efficiency, and even the long-term health of your land. At CEAT Specialty, we believe in empowering farmers with knowledge. Here’s a simple guide to help you understand the key features you should consider when choosing agri tyres.
Bias-ply tyres are built using a diagonal ply design. They come at a lower cost but offer less traction, shorter lifespan, and greater soil compaction when compared to radial tyres. Bias tyres are suitable for specific applications where heavy-duty performance isn’t a top priority, and cost-efficiency is key.
Radial tyres have cords that radiate at a 90° angle from the bead, which leads to multiple performance benefits:
✅ Superior traction
✅ Better fuel efficiency
✅ Smoother ride comfort
✅ Reduced soil damage
CEAT’s popular radial ranges, such as FARMAX and TORQUEMAX, are engineered to deliver long-lasting performance across all terrains.
The rubber compound used in tyre construction is critical to its durability and resistance. CEAT tyres use advanced compounds that improve resistance to wear and tear, ensuring that your tyres last longer even in challenging field conditions.
Flotation tyres are wider, allowing for better weight distribution. This reduces soil compaction and enhances traction. Ideal for use in softer soils, CEAT flotation tyres — like the CEAT VF range — protect your land while delivering stable performance under load.
This refers to the maximum weight a tyre can support at a specific pressure. Overloading can cause premature tyre failure and safety issues. Always refer to official load charts and consult with your tyre specialist to ensure your tyre is matched properly with your equipment.
The load index is a numerical value that represents the tyre’s load-carrying capacity. Matching the correct load index to your machine helps maintain safety, balance, and consistent performance in the field.
Choosing the right agricultural tyre is about more than just size — it’s about performance, soil care, safety, and long-term value. With CEAT Specialty tyres, you get reliable technology, proven field performance, and expert support.
