- Bias Agricultural
LBR401 is a bias agricultural tyre designed for tractors and farm machinery operating in heavy-duty field conditions, including wet soil, mud, and uneven terrain. The tread pattern provides consistent grip and self-cleaning performance to maintain traction during ploughing, seeding, and harvesting.
What LBR401 Is Built For
LBR401 is a bias agricultural tyre designed for tractors and farm machinery operating in heavy-duty field conditions, including wet soil, mud, and uneven terrain. The tread pattern provides consistent grip and self-cleaning performance to maintain traction during ploughing, seeding, and harvesting. It features wear and puncture resistance to extend casing life under abrasive and debris-laden environments. The 8.25-16 size with 12 ply rating is intended for medium to high load applications on farm utility vehicles and compact tractors. The tyre is built for durability in continuous field work, not for highway use.
Manufacturer Feature Claims
- Wear and puncture resistance
- Good grip and self-cleaning performance
Key Benefits
- Wear and puncture resistance improves casing life in abrasive and debris-filled field conditions
- Self-cleaning tread pattern maintains grip in mud, wet soil and sticky residue
- Good traction performance on soft and uneven terrain during ploughing and harvesting
- 12 ply rating supports higher load capacity for medium to heavy farm machinery
- 8.25-16 size fits common compact tractors and utility vehicles used in small to mid-sized farms
Problems It Solves
- Tyres with poor self-cleaning tread lose grip quickly in mud and wet soil, reducing field efficiency
- Punctures from stones and roots shorten casing life on tyres not built for field durability
- Lack of wear resistance leads to early tread wear in abrasive soil, increasing replacement frequency
- Inconsistent traction on soft ground causes engine strain and fuel inefficiency during field work
- Multiple suppliers and MOQs make it difficult to source a single tyre type across different farm machines
Who It Is For
- Agricultural dealers supplying tyres to small to mid-sized farms in Asia, Africa and South America
- Farm equipment distributors needing one supplier for mixed tyre patterns and sizes
- Fleet operators managing a small number of tractors and utility vehicles on mixed terrain
- Government or cooperative buyers procuring tyres for agricultural development projects
- Importers sourcing bias tyres for markets where radial agricultural tyres are not yet standard
Application Scenarios
- Tractors used for ploughing and tilling in wet, clay-heavy soil where mud buildup reduces traction
- Harvesting operations on uneven, ungraded farmland where punctures from stones and roots are common
- Seeding and planting tasks requiring consistent grip on soft, muddy ground without slippage
- Farm utility vehicles transporting tools, feed or equipment across fields with mixed terrain
- Operations in regions with high rainfall or frequent irrigation where field surfaces remain saturated
Technical Features
- Bias construction with 12 ply rating for enhanced durability under heavy field loads
- Tread pattern designed for self-cleaning performance to prevent mud packing
- 22.0 mm tread depth provides long wear life in abrasive soil and repeated field cycles
- Section width of 235 mm and overall diameter of 855 mm ensure compatibility with standard 6.50H rims
- Speed symbol A6 indicates suitability for low-speed agricultural use, not highway travel

- Certificate of origin issued to suit your import duty position
- Sidewall branding and private label subject to plant minimum order quantity
- Label, marking and packaging adjusted to the destination market requirement
Where This Pattern Wins and Where It Does Not
Compared With Radial agricultural tyres
LBR401 offers lower cost and higher durability in abrasive field conditions, but may have higher rolling resistance and shorter highway life
Compared With Other bias tyres with lower ply rating
The 12 ply rating provides better load support and casing life under heavy field use compared to 8 or 10 ply alternatives
Compared With Tyres without self-cleaning tread
LBR401 maintains grip in mud and wet soil due to its self-cleaning pattern, reducing slippage during field operations
Use Guide
- Match the ply rating to your actual axle load; overspecifying increases cost and ride harshness
- Check the rim size 6.50H against your wheel; do not use on wider or narrower rims
- Inflate to 530 kPa at the load specified in the size table; underinflation causes overheating and casing damage
- Inspect the tread and groove bottoms after each field cycle for lodged debris to prevent punctures
- Rotate tyres between positions if irregular wear develops, especially on machines with uneven load distribution
LBR401 Buying Questions
What is the minimum order quantity?
We load by full container. A 40HQ of 8.25-16 typically fills at container weight rather than volume, so the practical minimum is one container. Mixed loads across sizes and patterns are accepted.
What is the lead time?
It depends on whether the size is in stock at the plant or has to be produced. We confirm current availability with the plant at the time of quotation rather than quoting a standard figure.
Which sizes are available?
Only 8.25-16 with 12 ply rating is listed. Full load index, rim and pressure data for this size is in the size table on this page.
Is this tyre suitable for highway use?
No. The speed symbol A6 and bias construction are intended for low-speed agricultural use only. It is not designed for highway speeds or sustained on-road travel.
Can you supply DOT or ECE marked tyres?
Marking requirements vary by destination. Tell us the import market and we confirm what marking the plant can supply on that size before you place the order.
What warranty do you give?
One year against manufacturing defect on all tyres we supply, with claims handled by us directly. Cargo transportation insurance is provided on the shipment itself.
Can you ship a mixed container with other patterns?
Yes. Most of our customers load one container across several patterns and sizes, which is the main reason to buy through us rather than from a single plant.
