Keep On Rolling!

Staying on top of recommended forklift tire inspections and replacements ensures safety, cuts costs and reduces downtime. Think of your tires as the "shock absorbers" of your forklift. Worn or damaged tires can result in decreased traction, turning difficulty and reduced operator comfort. Resulting operator fatigue can cut down on productivity, while uneven wear or distressed tires can create difficult handling and increase the likelihood of damaged loads. These hidden costs make it more expensive to replace a tire at failure than prior to the failure via a scheduled replacement plan. There are several early detection clues that indicate your forklift tires need immediate attention, including:

 
  • Chunking
  • Spinning on rims
  • Overheating
  • Cutting
  • Marring floors
  • Separation.
Let our company answer all of your questions on tire replacement, tire types, designs and tread profiles best suited for your application. Call one of our Product Support Account Managers for a tire survey today, because driving on worn tires can be a gamble.
