Clark Cushion Tire Forklifts San Antonio

Forklift Tire Specs

Forklifts have been an essential tool in industry and commercial businesses since the year 1917. During its history the forklift has evolved through different forms, from a tractor with a platform attachment to a particular high-tech equipment. Forklift tires have also evolved into specialized tires, with various kinds designed to meet specific functions.



Cushion (Solid) Tires

Solid polyurethane or rubber are the kinds of materials used to make cushion tires. They are best for indoor work on surfaces that are smooth. The tread of a cushion tire is pressed or binded onto the tire's steel ring. Cushion tires are rated for different load capacities and for ease of steering. Cushion tires are normally used within warehouse settings.



Pneumatic Tires

Pneumatic forklift tires are filled with foam or air. They come in two types: bias or radial. Depending on the use, they come with different sidewall protection, tread depths and weight. Pneumatic forklift tires that are filled with foam are less susceptible to punctures and maintain constant pressures. Pneumatic tires are usually used outdoors on surfaces that are rough and uneven.



Pneumatic Shaped Solid/Solid Pneumatic

Solid Pneumatic Hybrid tires combine the comfortable ride of a pneumatic tire with the puncture resistance of a solid tire. They are an alternative to the outdoor pneumatic tire.



Large Rubber and Flotation Tires

Large rubber tires, which can either be pneumatic, foam or solid, are used on wheel loader forklifts. These types of tires are best for transporting and loading heavy things onto trucks or into processing equipment. Large flotation pneumatic tires are best for masted rough terrain forklifts usually utilized at construction sites, auto recyclers and lumberyards.
