Pneumatic Tire Forklifts

Product Description:

Pneumatic forklift trucks feature tires filled with air and fastened to a rim - just like automobiles. The size of these tires and their composition depends on exactly what the pneumatic forklift will be used for. Likewise, the capacity of a pneumatic forklift will be determined by the air pressure and volume of air inside the tires.

Low pressure pneumatic tires have a large volume of air with a lower air pressure. This combination gives the tires a large footprint, which reduces the pressure exerted on the warehouse floor. It also increases shock absorption, which leads to a higher degree of comfort for the operator. These pneumatic tires work well on poor quality floors.

High pressure pneumatic tires have a small volume of air at a higher air pressure. This combination gives the tires a small footprint, which increases the pressure exerted on the warehouse floor. It also decreases shock absorption, which leads to a lesser degree of comfort for the operator. These pneumatic tires work well on solid, good quality floors.
