 Passenger, commercial and recreatonal tires, for the most part, are air-filled in order to reduce vibration and improve traction. Industrial tires, however, require strength, the ability to absorb shocks, and resist cuts and abrasions So, in addition to different sizes for different industrial application, Industrial tires offered by Skander Tire have different fillings: air-filled (pneumatic), solid foam-filled and solid rubber tires. We carry tires for garden carts, fork lifts, wheel barrels, hand trucks, etc.
 Air-Filled or Pneumatic Tires: This type of tire is very similar to those used on heavy-duty trucks; they are air-filled and made of very strong rubber for extra durability. If you are looking for a tire with deep tread that will receive its fair share of wear and tear, then pneumatics is the choice. A pneumatic tire will also extend the life of your machinery. The tires provide superior cushioning, so if you're expecting your equipment or vehicle to be used in a wide range of environments this is the choice. Pneumatic tires will go flat.
 Solid Rubber Tires: A Solid rubber tire is a good multipurpose alternative. They are similar to pneumatic tires but are not inflated with air. They are exactly as name states, solid rubber. in fact, solid rubber tires once were the only tires available.
 The big advantage with solid rubber tires is that you do not have the usual problems as a consequence of pneumatic tire failure. Punctures, blow-outs or tire popping is a thing of the past with solid rubber. They are significantly less comfort for the driver and more wear and tear on the machine. Outdoor use should be limited because of the obvious rougher ride.
 Foam-Filled Tires: Never have a flat agin. Flat tires can be very expensive: lost time; lost revenue and equipment replacement can bringyour operation to a grinding halt. But with a foam-filled tire, you'll never have to worry about a flat again. Tires are filled with a resilent liquid compound that cures toa soft rubber core within 24 hours. Foam filled tires are more effective on tough terrains, becauseof unique tread design, can give better traction and make your vehicle more stable.
The process for foam filling requires a usable tire -- notold old or dry rotted. It is left with us tobe filled, where it then sits in a temperature controlled room to cure; ready to be picked up the next day.
From construction vehicles to mining and industrial equipment, foam filling is right for anyone who is tired of the cost, delays and inconvenience of flat tires.
