Abstract

A tread (2) for the driven axle of an agricultural vehicle having tread pattern elements (21, 41) extending radially towards the outside from a bearing surface (22). The tread pattern elements have, in the central part of the tread, a series of blocks (41) juxtaposed with one another in the longitudinal direction and separated by transverse cuts (42), and having, in the rolling direction (15), a leading face, a contact face and a trailing face. The leading face having a radial height greater than the radial height of the trailing face. The contact face being oriented at an angle α with respect to radial direction Z, α being between 93 and 105° and radial depth PR of the transverse cuts (42) being at least 50% of the radial height of the leading face, the width of the blocks representing at least 15% of the width of the tread.
