Assembly – Semi-Adjustable Tyne Mounted Press Wheels are most widely used where there is a need to put the press wheel right in behind the tyne and where space limitations do not allow for any other mounting method. The popularity of these units is due to the fact that they give a cost effective means getting the press wheel in close behind the tyne. The semi-adjustable variant allows a variety of methods of adjusting pressure and wheel position, making them suitable for a wider number of tyne varieties. The semi-adjustable unit also comes standard with a longer and wider throat to allow for double shooting with oversize tubes. All units come standard configured as a swivel unit. The units can be configured for low pressure (15kg) or high pressure (40kg), however most units are run at an average pressure of around 20 kg. A choice of 15, 16 or 18 inch wheel sizes is available with a large number of tyre options, most units are sold with 15 inch wheels. This unit is fitted with zero maintenance agrihubs. Caution needs to be exercised when using tyne mounts as they are not suitable on some machines and in some conditions. The tyne design, breakout and sowing conditions are all important considerations. To determine whether your machine and conditions are suitable please contact Manutec to discuss.

Tyre – 70mm wide mid range vee (egg) shape solid tyre. This is a 16 inch tyre which fits on the same rim, which gives the vee an extra half inch of depth. This tyre is a medium to high pressure tyre suited to dry abrasive conditions. Tyre will give good average results across a range of soil and climatic conditions. Tyre is good for moisture seeking and seed pressing in most conditions. Tyre has a tendency to leave paddocks rough, which is a necessity of the moisture channelling. This tyre is well suited to most seeding methods, points and boots (especially the more narrow ones). Not recommended in very sticky soils (see semi-pneumatic variant of this tyre). This tyre is used extensively on CONSERVA PAK rims.

When measuring tyres we use the outside diameter of the tyre, so when we refer to this as a 16 inch tyre it means that the outside diameter of the tyre is approximately 16 inches
