LL38
- 7 sizes
- Bias Agricultural
LL38 is a bias agricultural tyre designed for tractors and utility vehicles operating on soft soil, field edges, and uneven terrain. The tread pattern provides consistent lateral grip during tight turns and side-hill work, reducing slippage and improving control. Wear and puncture resistance are built into the construction to extend casing life on rocky or debris-laden fields.
What LL38 Is Built For
LL38 is a bias agricultural tyre designed for tractors and utility vehicles operating on soft soil, field edges, and uneven terrain. The tread pattern provides consistent lateral grip during tight turns and side-hill work, reducing slippage and improving control. Wear and puncture resistance are built into the construction to extend casing life on rocky or debris-laden fields. Available in seven size and ply combinations from 4.50-16 to 5.50-16, it supports a range of farm and utility vehicles across different load and pressure requirements. The tyre is marked with the A6 speed symbol, suitable for low-speed agricultural operations.
Manufacturer Feature Claims
- Wear and puncture resistance
- Lateral grip
Key Benefits
- Bias construction provides strong lateral grip on soft and uneven terrain
- Tread pattern enhances wear and puncture resistance in rocky or debris-filled fields
- Seven size and ply combinations cover common tractor and utility vehicle fitments
- Tread depth of 8.0 mm offers a balance between traction and longevity
- A6 speed symbol indicates suitability for low-speed agricultural use
Problems It Solves
- Standard tyres fail early on rocky or debris-laden fields due to poor puncture resistance
- Lack of lateral grip causes slippage during tight turns or side-hill work, reducing efficiency
- Limited size availability forces buyers to source from multiple suppliers with different MOQs
- Short casing life leads to frequent replacements and higher operating costs
- Inconsistent tread depth and construction across brands reduce predictability in wear and performance
Who It Is For
- Agricultural dealers supplying tyres for tractors and utility vehicles in mixed terrain markets
- Fleet operators managing small to mid-sized farm equipment fleets with varied terrain use
- Importers sourcing tyres for regional agricultural markets in Asia, Africa, South America and the Middle East
- Distributors who need one supplier for multiple sizes and patterns within the agricultural segment
- Contractors running seasonal field work on rocky or uneven ground requiring durable tyres
Application Scenarios
- Tractors performing tight turns in soft soil or on sloped fields where lateral grip prevents slippage
- Utility vehicles used in orchards, vineyards, or small farms with uneven or rocky ground
- Field operations involving frequent side-hill driving or edge work on ungraded terrain
- Farms that require durable tyres to reduce downtime from punctures and early wear
- Operators needing consistent performance across multiple field conditions without frequent tyre changes
Technical Features
- Bias construction with reinforced tread and sidewall for lateral stability and impact resistance
- Tread depth of 8.0 mm across all sizes, designed for extended wear in field conditions
- Lateral grip pattern optimized for turning and side-hill operation on soft or uneven ground
- A6 speed symbol suitable for low-speed agricultural use, not highway driving
- Seven size and ply combinations available to match common tractor and utility vehicle fitments

Where This Pattern Wins and Where It Does Not
Compared With Radial agricultural tyres
Bias construction offers better lateral grip and stability on soft soil but may have shorter tread life under high-speed or high-load conditions
Compared With Standard bias tyres without reinforced tread
LL38 has specific wear and puncture resistance features that extend casing life in rocky or debris-heavy fields
Compared With Tyres with higher speed symbols
A6 is suitable only for low-speed agricultural use; not intended for highway or high-speed applications
Use Guide
- Match ply rating to your actual axle load; overspecifying increases cost and reduces ride comfort
- Check the rim size (3.00D or 4.00E) against your wheel before ordering
- Inflate to the pressure shown in the size table for your load; underinflation increases wear and heat
- Inspect for embedded stones or debris after field work to prevent casing damage
- Rotate tyres between positions if irregular wear develops, especially on vehicles with one-sided load patterns
LL38 Buying Questions
What is the minimum order quantity?
We load by full container. A 40HQ of LL38 typically fills by 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 needs to be produced. We confirm current availability with the plant at the time of quotation.
Which sizes are available?
4.50-16 in 6, 8, and 10 PR; 5.00-16 in 8 and 10 PR; 5.50-16 in 8 and 10 PR. Full load, pressure, and dimension data for each is in the size table.
Is this tyre suitable for highway use?
No. The A6 speed symbol indicates it is designed only for low-speed agricultural operations. It is not rated for highway use.
Can you supply DOT or ECE marked tyres?
Marking requirements vary by destination. Tell us your 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.
