Forklift Tires and Industrial Equipment Tires

U.S. Materials Handling provides forklift tires engineered for durability, safety, and consistent performance in warehouses, factories, and outdoor yards. Choosing the correct tire for your forklift reduces maintenance costs, improves operator safety, and maximizes equipment uptime. We supply a complete range of industrial tires to meet the demands of every type of application.

Cushion Tires

Cushion tires are designed for smooth, indoor surfaces. They are commonly used in warehouses, distribution centers, and manufacturing facilities where forklifts operate on concrete floors. Cushion tires allow for a smaller turning radius, making them ideal for tight spaces and narrow aisles.

Solid Pneumatic Tires

Solid pneumatic tires are built to resist punctures and damage while providing a long service life. These tires work indoors and outdoors, making them versatile for facilities that operate on both warehouse floors and exterior dock or yard areas. Their rugged design helps protect against debris and uneven surfaces.

Press-On Tires

Press-on tires are compact and reliable, used on electric forklifts, pallet trucks, and narrow aisle equipment. They provide excellent grip on smooth floors and support high-capacity loads without the maintenance of air-filled tires.

Specialty Tires

Certain applications demand unique tire solutions. We offer non-marking forklift tires for food-grade facilities, chemical-resistant tires for harsh environments, and custom tire options for specialized industrial trucks.

Benefits of Proper Tire Selection

-Improved safety for forklift operators and employees

-Extended equipment lifespan through reduced wear and stress

-Better traction and handling, especially in high-volume operations


-Reduced downtime by preventing premature tire failures

-Lower total cost of ownership with durable tire options
