The extra lugs and high lug-to-void ratio, controlled flat crown shape and multi-block tread are all design features to increase flotation and promote soil protection.

The Harvest 800/65R32 Trojan tyre is also reinforced for high loads with high body ply turn up, radial tread belts and single wire bead construction.

The tyre is especially well suited for large implements such as chaser bins and air carts, but will also perform well on drive axles for harvesters and tractors, especially for contractors and other operators who cover significant road kilometres.

The tyre will carry 8250kg at 65km/h and has a cyclic loading capacity of 14,500kg per tyre. It's a tubeless tyre with 30, 13-degree lugs on each side and features a multi-directional tread pattern.
