BKT products literally cover every field, including turf. Maintaining a garden means doing gardening operations without damaging it. Hence, it is essential that tires are delicate to the ground without compromising the growth of grass and without any negative impact on beauty. For this reason, i.e. for operating in the several Lawn & Garden applications, agility, power, and precision are needed, so that small compact tractors and mowers can do their best “in the field”. Five are the patterns of the BKT-branded Lawn & Garden tire ranges for both gardening and municipality/maintenance works: LG Smooth, LG Rib, LG 306, LG 307, and LG 408.
Common features of these tires are their definitely “soft” approach, an extended life cycle, excellent handling and extraordinary puncture resistance, since an aramid-belted version is available for several patterns for all those usages that require extra puncture resistance due to particularly difficult types of land or soil.
LG Smooth is the ideal tire for mowers, moving softly and with agility on turf and grassland. The tire shows care for the land, and its cutting-edge design stands for increased durability as well as easy driving.
