What are Solid Tires?
Solid tires are constructed from a resilient, solid rubber compound. This robust construction makes them exceptionally resistant to punctures. Ideal for demanding applications, they are designed to minimize the risk of flats, thereby reducing the frequency of tire replacements and repairs. This results in lower maintenance costs and less downtime.
While they are well-suited to heavy-duty applications, particularly for slow vehicles and trailers at high risk of impact damage, their higher weight compared to pneumatic tires can increase engine load, potentially leading to slower acceleration and increased fuel consumption. Nonetheless, solid tires are a reliable choice for those seeking enhanced safety and productivity in challenging work environments.
