Benefits and applications

The Vredestein 4.00-8 V-40 8PR TT is ideal for demanding transport tasks with wheelbarrows and similar equipment. The 8PR carcass ensures high resistance to punctures and damage, which makes the tyre particularly suitable for use on construction sites, in workshops, in agriculture as well as in gardening and landscaping.

The V-40 tread pattern provides good grip on a wide variety of surfaces while ensuring smooth running. With a load capacity of 710 kg at 30 km/h, the tyre is designed for heavy loads and offers high operational safety. Thanks to its TT design (tube-type tyre), it is particularly robust against rim damage and can be used on many standard rims in size 8 inch.

Explanation of technical terms

• TT (Tube Type): Tyre construction in which a separate inner tube is used inside the tyre.
• TL (Tubeless): Tubeless tyre in which the air is contained directly in the tyre-rim system (mentioned here only for distinction, this tyre is TT).
• PR (Ply Rating): Ply Rating indicates the relative load capacity and robustness of the carcass. A higher PR number (e.g. 8PR) stands for a reinforced design and higher load capacity.
• LI (Load Index): Code number for the maximum permissible load capacity of a tyre at a specified inflation pressure (not given as a number here, load capacity is stated directly in kg).
• SI (Speed Index): Letter code for the maximum permissible speed of a tyre. In this case, the maximum speed of 30 km/h is given directly.
