Tyre fill, also known as solid fill, is mostly used in industries which require work on very rough surfaces with puncture hazards, including waste disposal, scrap metal, smelting operations, and underground mining.
Tyre fill makes your tyres immune to punctures while also maintaining the ride and traction of pneumatic tyres.
The benefits of using Tyre fill:
- No more flat tyres
- Reduced wheel slippage
- Comfortable, trouble free ride
- Good flotation and traction
- Greater vehicle stability
- Excellent shock absorption
- Less axle stress
- Increased ballast
With tyres that are filled, you can expect a softer ride than a solid rubber puncture resistant tyre. Filled tyres add to operator comfort, and greater traction. Equipment is no longer limited to 25 km p/h, with less equipment damage due to reduced vibration and improved energy conservation.
Industry applications:
- Underground mining
- Quarrying
- Front end loaders
- Excavators
- Aerial access platforms
- Fork lift trucks
- Compactors
- Slag carriers
- Mobile cranes
- Tunnel borers
- Skid steer
- Granulating drums
- Agricultural
- Sea and air ports
In general, the tougher the tyre application, the greater the need for Tyre fill. Your pneumatic tyres become as durable as solid tyres.
