Maxam introduced new agricultural tires
Maxam Tire, part of Sailun, has expanded its agricultural tire range by adding new sizes to the AgriXtra line and introducing the new MS971R TracXtra model.
Maxam MS971R TracXtra tires combine radial construction with a reinforced metal cord carcass and are designed for use on various surfaces, including fields, highways, and difficult off-road conditions. The even ground pressure increases traction without compromising durability. Additionally, optimized rolling resistance ensures fuel savings and reduced operating costs, while reduced noise and vibration improve operator comfort, reducing fatigue during long working days.
The tread pattern with large lugs and voids is designed to provide high traction and quick self-cleaning in any conditions, and the design has also been improved for better handling and maneuverability, including in tight spaces. The new tires are available in four sizes with rim diameters from 28 to 42 inches.

Maxam's range has also been expanded to include VF-sized AgriXtra N, H, and XL agricultural tires. According to the manufacturer, VF technology allows for either a 40% increase in tire load at standard pressure or a 40% reduction in pressure at the same load level. By either increasing cargo capacity or reducing pressure, farmers can minimize soil compaction, improve traction, save fuel, and ultimately increase their efficiency.
AgriXtra N tires are designed for large sprayers with high clearance, AgriXtra H for combine steering axles, and AgriXtra XL flotation tires for tractors with mechanical front-wheel drive.
"The expansion of VF technology in AgriXtra tire production, as well as the release of the new MS971R model, reflects our commitment to offering innovative and reliable solutions that help farmers and agricultural equipment manufacturers address their challenges," said Greg Gilland, Vice President of Maxam's Agricultural Tire Division. "We are aware of the enormous efforts being made to increase crop yields and agricultural productivity, and therefore strive to develop products that make this work easier, more efficient, and more environmentally friendly."
