TM1060. Enrich your farming. Official Partner Tire iBrochure

Your land deserves the lightest touch Over 50% of the carbon footprint in food production is produced by farming According to recent research into the food industry’s environmental footprint, farming cultivation accounts for a significant proportion of CO2 emissions in food production. As a consequence, it is essential that the agricultural industry plays its part in boosting performance through the reduction of its environmental footprint. Example of Cereal based food production Lower is better *GWP = Global Warming Potential: it represents emissions’ contribution to the global warming and...

Trelleborg TM1060. Enrich your farming Trelleborg tyres reduce your tractor’s CO2 emissions by 6% The new BlueTire™ technology, recently launched by Trelleborg, guarantees the lightest touch on the earth. As illustrated in the chart below, the Blue Tire technology represents a 6% reduction in carbon footprint over the working life of a Trelleborg tyre. % of CO2 emissions for a standard tyre during its working life 100% OF CO2 EMISSION Standard Tyre *GWP = Global Warming Potential LCA (life Cycle Assessment) certified by PE INTERNATIONAL

TM1060. The 3 key features ™ of ProgressiveTraction. The unbeatable performance of the Trelleborg ProgressiveTraction™ is testament to its innovative double edge lug. While its two points of anchorage boost grip, the stronger base of the lug significantly reduces vibrations, wear and fuel consumption. In addition, the double edge lug also enhances the inter-lug terraces of the TM tyres, maximising the self-cleaning capability of the tyre.

Dual anchor The grip performance is enhanced by 2 anchor points Reduced vibrations For a standard tyre, the lug behaves like a “brush”. This accelerates the wear and increases the rolling resistance. The wider base of the ProgressiveTraction™ lug ensures a higher resistance to lug vibrations. Standard Tyre HIGH VIBRATION Enhanced Self-cleaning The extra lug acts as an additional terrace on the unique Trelleborg TM tread profile, enhancing its great self cleaning capability and increasing the efficiency of the lu

Unrivaled tread design The new TM1060 tread design merges the best qualities of Trelleborg’s agricultural radial products. Whilst the wing effect maximises the tread width, ensuring an extra wide footprint, the ProgressiveTraction™ technology boosts the traction capability. Furthermore, the increased sidewall flexibility leads to very low soil compaction without impacting on the superior tyre strength.

Additional efficiency The TM1060 features a higher load capacity compared to the same sizes in Standard technology. The Trelleborg /60 series is a step ahead with regards to tyres for medium and high power tractors, allowing the same load at lower pressure or a higher load at the same pressure. The graphic below clearly shows the performance gap between 710/60R42 in Standard and VF versions. FIELD APPLICATION Lower pressure is better Up to lower pressure at the same load ROAD TRANSPORT Higher load is better Up to higher load capacity at the same pressure Standard Tyre

Wider tractor option Without increasing the dimensions of the tyres, the new TM1060 provides superior performance compared to the existing /60 series available on the market, being able to equip tractors up to 300hp - even using a narrow rim option. Indeed, the high load capacity of this range permits the transfer of torque generated by modern transmissions of high powered tractors to the ground. Premium Competitor * refers to size VF 710/60R42

A multipurpose efficient solution Modern farming requires overall efficient solutions. In this respect, the new Trelleborg TM1060 is the complete multipurpose tyre able to satisfy the different needs of present and future agricultural operations. It is the perfect solution for those applications requiring low compaction and a wide footprint like seeding and soil preparation, as well as for applications where high torque transfer is necessary, such us ploughing and tillage. Last, but not least, it guarantees low fuel consumption and emissions on the road.

The widest footprint The FEM Analysis (Finite Element Analysis) shows the degree of compaction gets rapidly worse and much deeper with a narrow tyre. Recent research proves that at a 10 cm depth the soil compaction is double with the narrow solution and becomes triple at 30 cm depth. The wide TM1060 tyre provides very low soil compaction, boosting the yield from the crops. LOW SOIL COMPACTION BOOSTS THE YIELD FROM CROPS Narrow Tyre Very High Compaction High Compaction Medium Compaction Zero Compaction Test Conditions Soil characteristics: texture = sand 18% - silt = 47% - clay = 35% pH: 7.3...
