This makes it particularly suited for sprayers and specialised equipment operating across narrow crop rows.<\/p>\n<p>Typical applications of the Agri Star II Row Crop tyre include self-propelled and trailed sprayers, row crop tractors and specialised equipment working in cereals, maize, oilseed rape and other row-planted crops.<\/p>\n<p>Alliance says bringing VF technology to this segments is particularly important to the industry as machinery weights as well as road travel distances will only keep growing.<\/p>\n<p>Built on a platform that has already seen over one million Agri Star II tyres sold worldwide, the row crop version extends Alliance\u2019s SLT benefits into a highly specialised segment.<\/p>\n<p>The tyre range covers sizes from 24- to 54-inches, offering compatibility with a wide variety of machines used in modern agriculture.<\/p>\n<p>Durability is further enhanced through robust construction elements such as a stubble guard and wear-resistant compounds, supporting long service life and reliability under demanding conditions.<\/p>\n<p>Kevin Burke Tyres (KBT) is the approved distributor of Alliance Tyres in Ireland.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Alliance, a brand of agricultural and off-highway tyres under Yokohama-ATG, recently exhibited at the Lamma trade show in the UK, where it showcased the Agri Star II Row Crop tyre for the first time.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":104,"featured_media":41176,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[1],"tags":[933],"class_list":["post-41175","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-news","tag-alliance"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v25.5 -
