The pneumatic tires of rough terrain forklifts are just rubber tires filled with air and they provide the necessary traction required for use on uneven environments.

If you’re using a rough terrain forklift on surfaces where broken glass is a common hazard then consider fitting solid pneumatic tires. Solid pneumatic tires don’t have any air in them – they are made of solid rubber and are therefore impossible to pop.
