How to Choose the Right Tire for Your Forklift
In order to get the most of your forklift, it will be extremely important to consider the type of tire as well. Choosing the wrong one will not only rob your forklift of performance, it will also lead to a lot of wasted money in maintenance costs.
Pneumatic forklifts typically use two types of tires. One is typically known as a solid tire, which consists solely of rubber. While they’re typically more expensive, they’re extremely durable. You can’t puncture or pop them, since they’re made of solid rubber. Is there typically debris on your work floor, such as nails, that typically do a lot of damage to your forklift tires? If that’s the case, you should strongly consider a forklift that sits on solid rubber pneumatic tires.
The other type of tire is known as an “air pneumatic” tire. While they’re usually filled with air, some owners fill them with foam instead because it makes for a smoother ride. You can use air pneumatic tires either indoors or outdoors – as long as they’re free of sharp objects that can puncture them.
Regardless of whether you use solid rubber or air pneumatic tires, pneumatic forklifts are very versatile. They can operate in an indoor warehouse or an outside loading dock, and they provide safe, secure traction on all types of terrain. This type of forklift, for example, is a great option if your trucks are unable to back directly into your warehouse. A pneumatic forklift can easily transition from a warehouse floor to an asphalt or gravel area for loading and unloading.
