Caterpillar IC Forklifts Long Beach

In selecting the right Forklift Tire and Compound, the following factors must be taken into account: type of fuel utilized; weight of your standard load; length of your typical run; types of issues you are having; type of surfaces the forklift runs on; whether or not your forklift operates over dock plates; number of shifts and percentage of time the forklift is loaded; and the top speed and the average speed of your forklift



To be able to describe different characteristics of tires, there are some particular terms that are used. It is helpful to know what they mean. The term Durometer means the hardness of forklift tires. The range is typically from 83 to 95, the number increasing with the hardness of the tire. Most of the tires made nowadays fall within a couple of standard industry classifications.



Softer tires give the driver a more comfortable ride. They are recommended for applications which need regular maneuvering as they provide better traction. They are better able to tolerate driving over floor debris. For uses which require maximum speed and long runs, soft tires are not suggested. They are constructed of softer compounds that tend to heat up and wear more quickly compared to hard tires.



For use which require multiple shifts, high speed and long runs, it is best to have harder tires. They are better than soft tires for maximum loads, and they would wear better and last longer. Hard tires give a less comfortable ride and are less forgiving of floor debris. They tend to be more energy efficient because they provide less resistance.



For general applications, it is better to utilize Universal Compound tires. These are all-around tires that combine various advantages.
