LI is a code for the tire load capacity

SS is a code indicating the tire

PR
States tire ply rating and is a
strength code for the tire carcass.
Type or Tread pattern
States the tire tread symbol or
pattern. If it is a tubeless tire, the
tire is marked with the symbol TL
after the tread symbol.

Tube
States the tube to be used for each size.
Example of tube marking:

STT brand Size designation valve

(*) The tube is marked in the same way as the corresponding type.
No marking on the tube concerning valve type.
(**) Double size marking means that the tube fits the corresponding tire
sizes.
No marking on the tube concerning valve type.

in use for the tire at the given
load and pressure. Speed notation Speed 1 Km/h = 0.62 mph

Technical informations
Free rolling and driving wheel
These are new symbols used for Implement tires
and states free rolling and driving service .
Loadwise, the load capacity is 30% less for driving wheels
than for free rolling wheels.

Inflation pressure
The inflation pressures refer to tires at ambient temperature. The values
given in the tables represent the “reference pressure” for the load
and speed conditions shown. The actual pressure of the tire must be
established in accordance with the mechanical characteristics of the vehicle,
the additional load from the use of equipment and additional storage
facilities, as well as the load conditions.

These values can be obtained from the “load / pressure / application”


tables according to the use:
Tractor tires Green area and garden tires
- on road at various speeds - on road
- on field at “high torque” - on field
(ploughing, harrowing, etc.)
- on field at “low torque”(surface AMPT tires or loaders and
works, sowing, etc.) excavator tires
- cyclic loading service on - road service
harvesting machines - field service
Implement tires
For tires with A8 or D marking,
- free rolling wheel - road service in frequent or long distance road
- free rolling wheel - field service transport at speeds of more than
- driving wheel - road service 30 Km/h, the inflation pressure
- driving wheel - field service should be increased by 0.4 bar
Forestry tires over the nominal value obtained for
effective loads on the axles.
- on road
- on light terrain Inflation pressure 1 bar = 100 kPa
- on heavy terrain and road service 1 bar = 14,5 psi
- on very heavy terrain

Load capacity
The load capacity is the maximum load (expressed in Kg) a tire is permitted
to carry under specified operating conditions. The nominal load is stated in
bold type.
