Linglong Specialty Tire has announced the launch of its newly developed Agri Master series, designed specifically for agricultural tractors. The Agri Master series is engineered to meet the evolving demands of modern farming, offering advanced tread design for enhanced traction, improved self-cleaning abilities, and a larger contact area to minimise soil compaction.
Jean-Paul Spijker, Director of Sales and Marketing for Specialty Tire Europe at Linglong, highlighted the rationale behind the development: “We developed the new Agri Master tyres in line with the development of ever more powerful agricultural tractors that have to pull increasingly heavy machinery or trailers. In addition, tractors need to travel by road more and more, as driving distances between fields and farms increase and due to the growing use for earthmoving and construction.”
The new Agri Master tyres feature a robust carcass and reinforced sidewalls, providing drivers with better grip and comfort, even at higher speeds and under challenging conditions. The focus on durability extends beyond performance in the field, with Linglong introducing a specially formulated rubber compound that not only extends the lifespan of the tyres but also enhances resistance to damage caused by stubble and uneven terrain.
The Agri Master series is available in multiple models to suit various tractor types:
Linglong has confirmed that additional sizes will be introduced in the near future, further expanding the options for farmers and contractors.
As agricultural equipment becomes more advanced and versatile, the role of tyres has expanded beyond just providing traction. With longer travel distances between fields and the increasing use of tractors in construction and earthmoving, tyre technology must adapt. Spijker emphasised: “The new strong carcass and improved sidewalls ensure more grip and comfort for the driver under all conditions, even at higher speeds.”
Linglong's investment in this development aligns with its long-standing reputation as a global tyre manufacturer. Since its founding in 1975, the company has continued to innovate across various segments, including agriculture, through its state-of-the-art research and development centres in China, North America, and Europe.
