When it comes to industrial equipment, forklifts, construction machines, and port handling gear, solid tires are often the smartest and safest choice. They’re tough, puncture-proof, long-lasting — and built for the kind of work where downtime just ain’t an option.
At Highway Trading Company, we supply and guide clients across Pakistan in choosing the right solid tires for their machines — whether it’s indoor warehouse usage or heavy port loading. Here’s everything you need to know.
What Are Solid Tires?
Unlike regular pneumatic tires, solid tires are made entirely of rubber or polyurethane — there’s no air inside. That means:
- No punctures
- No blowouts
- No air pressure maintenance
- Consistent performance under load
Solid tires are also called press-on tires, cushion tires, or resilient tires, depending on the type and application.
Types of Solid Tires
- Standard Black Solid Tires (Marking)
Used widely in warehouses, ports, and construction. - White Non-Marking Solid Tires
Made without carbon black — used in clean environments like:- Food & beverage industries
- Pharmaceutical warehouses
- Cold storages
- Showrooms and epoxy-coated floors
- Press-On Band Tires
For electric forklifts, stackers, and pallet trucks — easy to fit and ideal for indoor use. - Resilient Solid Tires (3-layer)
Feature an inner cushion layer for better shock absorption — good for rough outdoor usage.
Where Solid Tires Are Used in Pakistan
Solid tires are ideal for:
- Forklifts in warehouses and factories
- Container handling machines at ports
- Construction compactors and backhoes
- Scrap yards and steel plants
- Cold storages and food processing facilities
If your machine operates in a space where nails, debris, glass, or heat are common — solid tires are usually the right call.
