The Firestone Radial 4000 R-1W is an impressive agricultural tire made for vineyard and orchard applications. It goes on tractors and provides excellent traction and stability on uneven terrain while being gentle on delicate grapevines.
Firstly, the R-1W tread delivers great traction in wet and sticky soil, while reducing soil damage too. The tread is designed to minimize damage to delicate grapevines. Here, the flat tread contour allows the tractor to move through the vineyard without harming the plants, ensuring they stay healthy. And, this type of pattern is good for various tasks in the orchard, like planting, spraying, and harvesting too. This makes it a versatile choice for vineyard operations. Adding to this, the reinforced sidewalls and bead construction help the Firestone Radial 4000 R-1W fit securely on the rim. This prevents it from coming loose while driving, ensuring a safe and smooth ride. The sidewalls also withstand up to 4,080 lbs per single tire, depending on the size.
Secondly, the high void ratio keeps the Firestone Radial 4000 R-1W cleaner, keeping a good grip and helping it perform better. The extra gaps also grip the ground more effectively, especially on soft or uneven soil. This prevents slipping when driving on these surfaces. Equally important, the open shoulders respond better to steering inputs. This makes it easier to navigate tight spaces and sharp turns in the vineyard. They reduce the risk of damaging the grapevines too. The design allows the Firestone Radial 4000 R-1W to roll smoothly without hitting the plants as much, which is important in narrow rows. Finally, the available sizes on the US market come in both 18'' and 20'' rim diameter options.
