Nokian expands its Float King VF flotation tire family with five new R26.5 sizes. As a result, more options are available to improve work efficiency and reduce soil compaction.

Float King VF tires utilize Nokian Flexforce VF technology. Hence, the steel-belted, flexible carcass structure meets the VF (Very High Flexion) standard, delivering the following benefits:

Higher load capacity at lower pressure

The Float King VF tire carries heavy loads at significantly lower pressures, reducing soil compaction and helping to maintain optimal field conditions.

XXL-sized ground contact

Nokian Tyres Flexforce VF technology ensures a wide and evenly distributed footprint, optimizing ground pressure distribution especially on sensitive, soft and moisture-variable soils.

Deep tread pattern

The specially designed deep tread pattern provides reliable grip and self-cleaning properties, enabling efficient operation even in challenging field conditions.

Expanding the Float King VF family into key R26.5 sizes, further strengthens the range and is a direct response to the needs to improve yield reliability and reduce operating costs.

Sizes and availability

The Float King VF tire is now available in a total of ten common sizes.

New sizes (available immediately):
VF600/55R26.5, VF620/60R26.5, VF650/55R26.5, VF650/65R26.5, and VF710/50R26.5.

Existing sizes:
VF750/60R30.5, VF850/50R30.5, VF800/60R32, VF710/55R34, and VF800/50R34
