    Trelleborg adds new sizes to TM800 ProgressiveTraction

    Trelleborg has introduced new sizes to the TM800 ProgressiveTraction range, with two sizes (540/65R28 and 650/65R38) available for mid- to high-horsepower machines, and four more due for release.

    The ProgressiveTraction tread is said to work across diverse terrains while reducing the working time per hectare and increasing fuel economy.

    In tests against competitive tyres, the tread has shown up to 17% traction improvement on soft soil and a 10% boost on hard soil. The tread pattern has also been shown to have 18% better wear resistance, leading to fewer replacements.

    Alessio Bucci, global product marketing director, says: “The TM800 ProgressiveTraction exemplifies our commitment to innovation and customer-driven solutions.

    “By integrating our award-winning ProgressiveTraction technology into one of our most iconic tyre lines, we are providing farmers with a tyre that not only redefines efficiency, comfort, and durability in the field, but also meets the evolving demands of modern agriculture.

    “Currently available in two sizes tailored for mid- to high-horsepower tractors, with four more being introduced progressively in the coming weeks, this tyre offers superior handling, enhanced fuel economy, and reduced downtime, all contributing to the overall boost in productivity.”
