The solid tread pattern mainly plays the role of increasing the grip of the tire and improving the braking performance of the vehicle. Since solid tires are used for venues and are not used for road transportation, the patterns are usually relatively simple. Here is a brief description of the pattern types and uses of solid tires.
1.Longitudinal pattern: striped pattern along the circumferential direction of the tread. It is characterized by good driving stability and low noise, but it is inferior to the transverse pattern in terms of traction and braking. Mainly used for driven wheels and scissor lift tires of small-scale field transportation vehicles. If indoor operation, most of them will use solid tires no marks. For example, our company's R706 pattern 4.00-8 is often used in airport trailers, and 16x5x12 is often used in scissor lifts, etc. .
2.Non-patterned tires, also known as smooth tires: the tread of the tire is completely smooth without any stripes or grooves. It is characterized by low rolling resistance and steering resistance, excellent tear resistance and cutting resistance, but its disadvantage is poor wet skid resistance, and its traction and braking properties are not as good as longitudinal and transverse patterns, especially on wet and slippery roads. Mainly used in trailer driven wheels used on dry roads, all of our company's R700 smooth press-on tires such as 16x6x101/2, 18x8x121/8, 21x7x15, 20x9x16, etc. are used in many types of trailers, 16x6x101/2, etc. are also used in WIRTGEN's milling machine. Some large smooth press-on tires are also used as airport boarding bridge tires, such as 28x12x22, 36x16x30, etc.
3.Lateral pattern: the pattern on the tread along the axial direction or with a small angle to the axial direction. The characteristics of this pattern are the best traction and braking performance, but the disadvantage is that the driving noise is loud, and the speed will be bumpy under load. Widely used in forklifts, port vehicles, loaders, aerial work vehicles, skid steer loaders, etc. For example, our company's R701, R705's 5.00-8, 6.00-9, 6.50-10, 28x9-15 are mostly used for forklifts, R708's 10-16.5, 12-16.5 are mostly used for skid steer loaders, R709's 20.5-25, 23.5 -25 is mostly used for Wheel loader etc.
