Alliance Tire introduced the IF1400/45R32 CFO Agriflex 372, the largest agricultural tire by inflation volume, at the Farm Progress Show, booth #305. The tire features a 207 load rating, the highest load capacity of any agricultural tire currently available. Alliance also showcased products including the Agri Star II, Agriflex+ 373, Agriflex+ 377 XT, and Agriflex+ 393 XT.
The tire was developed in collaboration with J&M Manufacturing. According to Alliance, the IF1400/45R32 CFO Agriflex 372 offers significant load capacity and a large footprint to reduce soil compaction. Designed for J&M’s new grain cart, the tire gives original equipment manufacturers (OEMs) an alternative to the IF1250/50R32.
“The IF1400/45R42 CFO Agriflex 372 reflects Alliance’s commitment to technology-driven manufacturing and customer-focused innovation. Designed to meet the evolving needs of modern American farming, it combines higher load capacity with superior ground protection, offering farmers and OEMs a versatile solution,” said Dyutiman Chattopadhyay, Chief Technology Officer, Yokohama-ATG.
Alliance Agriflex 372: Technology And Durability Built In
Built with Improved Flexion (IF) technology, the tire delivers up to 20% more load at the same pressure or the same load at up to 20% less pressure than standard radials, Alliance said. As a CFO tire, it supports more weight at lower speeds during cyclical loads, protecting soil and improving efficiency.
Its steel-belted construction and stubble guard compound provide long-lasting durability. Farmers also benefit from a 10-year workmanship and a 5-year stubble warranty.
