BKT Launches Agrimax Spargo SB Tire for Vineyards

BKT Agrimax Spargo SB tire, designed for vineyards and orchards with steep terrain and narrow rows, offering a wider footprint and maximum traction.

Mumbai - Balkrishna Industries Limited (BKT)., a tyre manufacturing company, has launched the Agrimax Spargo SB tire, designed for vineyards and orchards with steep terrain and narrow rows. It offers the benefits of radial agricultural tires, providing a wider footprint and maximum traction.

BKT’s Agrimax tire for row crops maximizes productivity while protecting soil health. With VF technology, it maintains a constant load at lower inflation pressure than standard tires.

Additionally, the Spargo SB's new steel-belted pattern features increased tread depth and slimmer lugs, creating a more open and taller tread design. This enhances road handling and supports a D-class speed rating of up to 65 km/h, improving efficiency and saving time.

The dual-layer mud ejection system efficiently clears debris from the tread, allowing a seamless transition from field to road without dirt buildup. Designed for stability and comfort, the tire delivers a smooth ride, minimizes operator fatigue, and ensures reliable performance in all conditions.

Mr. Dilip Vaidya, Sr. President & Director Technology at BKT, said, “In the case of the Agrimax Spargo SB, we have paid special attention to the casing design by using a strong polyester structure that offers greater strength, flexibility and durability than traditional materials. This choice enables the tire to handle heavy loads while keeping deformation under control, improving the footprint and thus traction, stability, and handling.”

The Agrimax Spargo SB’s steel-belted structure enhances stability and precision, especially at high speeds with its “D” rating. It also improves puncture resistance, shielding against debris and sharp objects. Paired with a polyester casing, it ensures even stress distribution, reducing wear and extending tread life.

The reinforced structure maintains the tire’s shape under load, enhancing rolling efficiency and reducing fuel consumption. Its specialized sidewall design minimizes vibration, ensuring greater comfort and precision during spraying operations.
