Hercules Tire introduces the Ag-Trac F-2 agricultural tire

This tire is designed for multiple farm surfaces and is being offered in two 16-in. sizes for 2WD front tractor wheel positions.

Hercules Tire and Rubber Company (HTR), a subsidiary of American Tire Distributors (ATD), recently introduced the Ag-Trac F-2, a robust tire designed for multiple farm surfaces, HTR said. This tire is offered in two 16-in. sizes for 2WD front tractor wheel positions.

According to HTR, the Ag-Trac F-2 is built to withstand the demands of farm work, with a durable construction that ensures long-lasting performance. Its design allows for traction and grip on a variety of surfaces, making it ideal for use in fields, pastures and other agricultural environments. In addition to its durability, the company said its Ag-Trac F-2 also offers precise control and maneuverability, which it said is essential for navigating tight spaces and making sharp turns in the field.

The Ag-Trac F-2 is the latest addition to Hercules Tires’ lineup of agricultural tires. According to HTR, the Ag-Trac F-2 offers:

  • Strong nylon cord casing designed to resist scuffs and damage in service;
  • 4-Rib design for enhanced flotation and self-cleaning leading to steering response from the fields to hard surfaces;
  • 10 and 12-ply offering for higher load-carrying capacity, while the 4-rib design allows for even load distribution.
