Tires for forklift

Forklift feels quite heavy loads, especially when working in shifts, as well as how often to work in warehouses, inherited from the Soviet past, the floor covering is generally poor. Yes, and working outdoors, loader, too, "goes well" and the first transmission is suffering from it, so proper selection of tires will extend the life of your truck, and you save money on its repair. The main task of tires - mitigate the impact and shock to those passed on as little as possible to the suspension, as well as providing reliable traction. Of properly selected bus is ultimately dependent permeability and fuel consumption. They are a consumable item, so as far as tire wear must be replaced. This interval may be 1000 ... 4000 hours. Such wide variation is associated with many factors and features of operation. Varieties of tires. Tires for construction equipment tires are different from other forms of transport, as they operate at low speeds and under heavy loads. During various operations with the cargo loader must always have a quality grip and this problem is successfully solved by means of industrial tires - air, retaining and-cast. Pneumatic tires. This type is similar to automobile tires tires by design, they are radial and diagonal, and tubeless chamber. In the diagonal ply tire inner layers overlap, so that side of the tire turns out stronger than the radial, in which layers of cord are parallel to each other. That's why most trucks outside the factory gates with diagonal bars. The tread pattern may be varied, or may not be his at all, but in any case, protector, as part of the supporting tire carcass protects it from damage and ensures the quality of grip or the floor. In order to pneumatic tires did not leave a black mark on the floor, the truck can be "shod" in the colored tires are not soiling the floor. Banding bus. This is the toughest tires, which are very demanding on the quality of the coating. They are highly maneuverable and stable and able to withstand great strain. The presence of bumps and potholes are not allowed to, or negatively impact each will affect the running of the truck. Banding bus consists of an outer layer molded rubber and steel tires, fixing a tire on the rim. Protector can be embossed for better grip. Even after being mechanically damaged (cuts, punctures), it can further continue their work. Replacement of retaining tires made by means of a hydraulic press, and black tires that does not stain the floor can be put on disk color banding in a series of bus tires, leaving no traces. Solid tires and "superelastic" molded tire is composed of several layers. The outer layer - the tread pattern with or without, for reliable traction. Under the outer layer is a cushioning layer that hides all the irregularities of the floor or ground. The last inner layer of reinforced steel cord used to secure the tire to the rim. Solid tires, perhaps, the best option for trucks, which operate on unprepared sites or in the workplace, where the probability of contact with the tire for sharp objects. They have a long life, they are not afraid to punctures and cuts, so even when moving at high speed truck driver will not lose control. Standard color-cast bus - black. These tires are "dirty" sex, so at one time have been developed colored tires, do not leave a trace. They are often used in warehouses and in areas with high sanitary standards. Change a tire-cast not as easy as, for example, pneumatic, for which undertakes any tire mounting workshop. To mount the "superelastic" wheel rim requires a hydraulic press. With it, the tire is pressed with a guaranteed fit. For all its merits molded tire has all the same flaws. Sometimes you have to work with very sensitive cargo (glass, ceramics, etc.), which demands a "soft" approach, and if floor is not quite flat, it is better to "shod" in the truck tire. On snow and loose ground "silastik" has a lower permeability than the "pneumatics", so they are best used on hard surface: asphalt or concrete. The service life of any tire is dependent on many factors. Poor quality of road surface, excess speed and load, the sharp "start" and stop inevitably reduce its life. In the pneumatic tire should be monitored by internal pressure, and blow a tire on the curb or sticking out from under the asphalt concrete or a piece of metal can kill the inner cord. The result is a "rupture" that could burst at any moment, and the truck lost control. Many manufacturers have moved production of tires in the U.S., Western Europe and Japan to Eastern Europe, China, India and Taiwan. The quality of tires produced by these countries under well-known brands almost no way inferior to any European and Japanese counterparts, but the price is significantly lower because of these plants is carried out strict control over the quality of the finished product. Owners of trucks, which are valued each working minute, prefer to remain in his reserve at least a couple sets of wheels with tires wearing on them, so as to Formula 1 motor racing can be for a short period of time to change the wheel on the failed unit.
