Why Use UL 1067 Listed Static Conductive Tires?

Advertisement - 26 Nov 2009

UL 583 listed explosion proof trucks EX are found not only at refineries but wherever flammable vapors and/or combustible dust conditions exist such as coal, wood, grain and paper applications. The purpose of 'rigging' lift trucks with explosion proof or static conductive wiring, hoses, lights, batteries, tires etc is to prevent static electricity build-up from sparking an explosion and fire. Using UL 1067 listed static conductive components for lift trucks operating in hazardous environments is a definite way to minimize risk of a tragic and possibly ruinous legal consequence of a static electricity explosion and fire. Superior Tire & Rubber Corp.'s static conductive rubber tires carry the UL Mark®. Superior Tire's static conductive tires have been tested by Underwriters Laboratories and passed the stringent UL static conductivity test. The UL Mark assures our customers that our static conductive tires qualify as UL Certified Static Conductive Rubber Tires.
