Michelin Introduces New Ag Tires
Recently at the 2016 Commodity Classic, Michelin Agricultural Tires introduced the new CerexBib tire.
The tire is a part of the very-high flexion class of agricultural tires for handling bigger and heavier farm equipment. Designed specifically for large combines and grain carts, it has a greater ability to flex under increased loads than a standard radial.
CerexBib, now available at Michelin Ag tire dealers in the U.S. and Canada, offers the following features:
- Operation at a lower pressure
- Improved traction in all conditions
- Enhanced service life
- Casing with reinforced sidewalls
- A narrower tire to carry the load for on-road travel
“This new CerexBib offers a massive load capacity, up to 21,960 pounds, and it has a giant footprint of approximately 486 square inches,” says James Crouch, Michelin farm segment marketing manager. “It is built with Michelin Ultraflex Technology, which enables tires to operate at up to 40% lower air pressure than standard radial tires. This results in a considerable reduction of ruts and compaction, and higher yield potential.”
Michelin also introduced the BibLoad Hard Surface backhoe tire last season. It features a nondirectional tread design to provide superior tread life when used in hard-surface applications.
