The global accessibility of the Marketplace has brought to light some big differences in terminology used around the world. It is interesting to learn these variations in terminology and we are continuously improving our Marketplace to cater to a world wide audience.
The different tyre types used on forklifts regularly cause confusion for dealers posting new listings.
Here is how we classify the types:- ‘Pneumatic / Puncture proof’: we group the ‘pneumatic’ / ‘air filled’ tyres together with the ‘solid rubber’ / ‘puncture proof’ / ‘filled’ tyres. These two profiles are interchangeable on forklifts: after purchasing a unit the buyer can easily change the tyres if needed.
- ‘Cushion (Press on)’: low profile warehouse type machine tyres. Other terms are ‘super elastic’ / ‘press on’ / ‘solids’.
Specific information about your unit’s tyres, local terminology or comments on the remaining tread can be included in the ‘More Information’ space.
