33×12-20 Tire: Why the Same Size Can Mean Two Different Solid-Wheel Architectures
The 33×12-20 Tire is a good example of a problem that appears frequently in industrial tire replacement: the same nominal size can describe products that are not built the same way. In WonRay’s published data, the 33×12-20 size appears in both a conventional skid-steer solid tire ...Read more -
22x9x16 Tire: How to Read a Press-On Tire Size Before Matching the Wheel
The 22x9x16 Tire is a useful example of why industrial press-on tires should be identified by more than outside diameter. The three-number size describes a compact tire that is built around a steel-band mounting system: approximately 22 inches outside diameter, 9 inches width and 16 inches inside...Read more -
Forklift Rear Tires: Why Steering-Axle Wear Should Be Read Differently
Forklift Rear Tires are often replaced using the same logic applied to the front drive tires: identify the size, find the matching construction and install the new tire. That approach misses one important difference. On many counterbalance forklifts, the rear wheels are part of the steering syste...Read more -
Forklift Winter Tires: What Changes When Industrial Vehicles Work in Cold Conditions?
Forklift Winter Tires are not simply ordinary forklift tires used during a colder month. When an industrial vehicle moves into low-temperature warehouses, outdoor yards, loading docks or mixed indoor-outdoor routes, several operating conditions change at the same time. Rubber becomes less flexibl...Read more -
2 Piece Forklift Rim: Why Wheel Structure Matters as Much as Tire Size
A 2 Piece Forklift Rim is easy to describe but easy to misunderstand. The name tells you that the wheel is made from two main components, yet it does not tell you whether the wheel will fit a particular forklift, tire size or hub. For industrial wheels, the relationship between rim width, center ...Read more -
323×100 Wheel: What Should You Check Before Replacing a Scissor Lift Wheel?
A 323×100 Wheel looks simple because the size itself appears to describe almost everything: approximately 323 mm outside diameter and 100 mm width. In practice, a replacement wheel for a scissor lift or other aerial work platform has to match much more than these two dimensions. The center s...Read more -
Divided Wheel: How Split Wheel Design Helps Fit Small Industrial Solid Tires
Understanding Forklift Tyre Types is more useful than simply knowing the tire size printed on the sidewall. Two forklifts can work in the same warehouse and still require completely different tire constructions because their rims, chassis height, operating surfaces and working patterns are differ...Read more -
16x5x12 Wheel: How Brake Type, Tread Pattern, and Dimensions Affect Scissor Lift Wheel Matching
A 16x5x12 Wheel is a much more specific search term than “scissor lift tire,” but even this exact size does not identify a single universal replacement wheel.A 16x5x12 Wheel is a highly specific scissor-lift wheel size, but the size alone still does not identify a universal replacement. Wheels in...Read more -
16/70-20 Tire: Why the Same Size Can Represent Very Different Solid Tire Products
A 16/70-20 Tire looks like a highly specific size, but the size marking alone still does not define the complete industrial product. Different 16/70-20 configurations can vary in outside diameter, section width, weight, load rating, wheel construction, and intended operating conditions. This is e...Read more
