Low Side Wall technology: Solutions for high flotation, heavy pulling, and roading applications all in a single tire.
NARROW ROADING HIGH FLOTATION HEAVY PULLING MEETING NEW DEMANDS
New Holland T9 Series tractors can now be equipped with Low Side Wall (LSW)
tyres to meet the new demands of producers looking for high flotation, heavy
pulling, and a narrow overall package for roading applications. LSW tyres feature
the ability to maintain high load ratings at 40% lower inflation psi values, opening
new productivity value to a single tyre combination. The larger rim diameter —
without increasing the overall LSW tyre diameter — results in a more stable tyre
for the toughest applications.
When equipped with LSW1250/35R46 singles, the overall width measures about
150 inches or 12.5 feet. This narrow roading width, in combination with a light
footprint, provides a middle ground when choosing between SmartTrax and
high-flotation duals.
Low Side Wall tyres design features a larger rim diameter without increasing the
overall tyre diameter, providing more stability for heavy pull and roading applications.
As the aspect ratio of a tyre increases so does the chance for bouncing during
roading and power-hop in in-field heavy pull applications. LSW tyres eliminate
those chances with a lower aspect ratio.
With LSW singles, total psi on the ground is comparable to high-flotation duals on
tractors with similar gross vehicle weight — but yields a nearly 20% reduction in
overall tyre width.
