Adjustable Tyne Mounted Assembly - Edge-On 16 inch 80mm Wedge Solid Tyre - Slimline Agrihub

Assembly - Adjustable Tyne Mounted Press Wheels are most widely used where there is a need to put the press wheel right in behind the tyne and where space limitations do not allow for any other mounting method. The popularity of these units is due to the fact that they give a cost effective means getting the press wheel in close behind the tyne. The adjustable variant allows a variety of methods of adjusting pressure and wheel position, making them suitable for a wider number of tyne varieties. All units come standard configured as a swivel unit. The units can be configured for low pressure (15kg) or high pressure (40kg), however most units are run at an average pressure of around 20 kg. A choice of 15, 16 or 18 inch wheel sizes is available with a large number of tyre options, most units are sold with 15 inch wheels. Units come standard with Zero Maintenance Agrihub. Caution needs to be exercised when using  tyne mounts as they are not suitable on some machines and in some conditions. The tyne design, breakout and sowing conditions are all important considerations. To determine whether your machine and conditions are suitable please contact Manutec to discuss.

Tyre - 80mm wide mid range solid tyre. This is the 16 inch version of the 15 inch 80mm wedge semi solid tyre, it fits on the same rim, which gives the wedge an extra half inch of depth. This tyre is a medium pressure tyre suited to dry, rough or abrasive conditions. Tyre will give good average results across a range of soil and climatic conditions. Tyre is good for moisture seeking and seed pressing in most conditions. Tyre has a tendency to leave paddocks rough, which is a necessity of the moisture channelling. This tyre is well suited to most seeding methods, points and boots. Not recommended in very sticky abrasive soils (see semi-pneumatic variant of this tyre). This tyre is used extensively on CONSERVA PAK rims.
