forklift tires , which are mainly selected according to the use environment, ground type and load requirements. The following are the main types of forklift tires and their respective characteristics:
1. According to the structure, it can be divided into solid tires and pneumatic tires.
The characteristics of solid tires are : no need to inflate, puncture-resistant; long life, almost maintenance-free; relatively poor shock absorption . Suitable for gravel ground, glass factories, metal factories and other harsh ground environments with nails and debris.
2. Pneumatic tires can be divided into: ordinary pneumatic tires (with inner tubes) and tubeless pneumatic tires (vacuum tires) . They are characterized by better shock absorption and grip , and high comfort . They are suitable for outdoor uneven ground, such as construction sites, sand, mud, etc.
2. According to the material classification, it can be divided into rubber tires , polyurethane tires (PU tires) and nylon tires/nylon composite wheels .
The characteristics of rubber tires are : common, low cost, good shock absorption effect , and suitable for most application scenarios.
2. Polyurethane tires (PU tires) are characterized by wear resistance, high load-bearing capacity, and floor-friendly . They are suitable for electronics factories, food factories, and indoor precision sites.
The characteristics of nylon tires/nylon composite wheels are : high hardness and chemical corrosion resistance , and are suitable for industrial plants or clean rooms with flat floors.
3. Classify press-fit tires and pneumatic tires with rims according to the installation method .
1. Press-on tires are directly pressed onto the rims. They are easy to install and are often found on electric forklifts .
2. Pneumatic tires with rims need to be assembled with matching rims and are more suitable for internal combustion forklifts.
Tires with suitable rims make forklifts more efficient and safer at work.
The forklift wheel rim is an important part of the forklift wheel system. It supports and fixes the tire to ensure the stability and safety of the forklift during operation. Depending on the type of forklift, load capacity and type of tire used, the rim is also divided into various types and specifications.
1. The rims for solid tires have a simple structure, usually one-piece or detachable; they are commonly found on low-speed, high-load forklifts; they are durable, easy to install, and suitable for solid rubber tires.
2. Pneumatic tire rims are similar to car rims and can be equipped with inner tubes or vacuum tires; they are lightweight, shock-absorbing, and suitable for uneven surfaces; they are often two-piece or three-piece structures for easy installation and replacement of tires.
3. Press-On Rims are mainly used for small forklifts and are suitable for polyurethane tires or rubber press-on tires. Such rims have a compact structure and are suitable for electric forklifts and indoor operations.

The 11.25-25/2.0 wheel rim is a relatively standard size for Carter forklifts. It is suitable for ordinary warehousing, light transportation and other environments, carrying small to medium loads. The use of high-quality steel ensures that the forklift has stable load capacity, traction and durability during work.
of choosing 11.25-25/2.0 rims for installation on forklifts?
11.25-25/2.0 rims are used on forklifts and have many advantages and features:
1. High load-bearing capacity
- Wide rim (11.25 inches) with large diameter (25 inches) to withstand higher tire pressure and load pressure;
- Suitable for large-tonnage forklift tasks, such as loading and unloading containers, stacking heavy materials, etc.
2. Strong stability
- Wider rims increase the tire's contact area, improving the vehicle's grip and lateral stability during operation;
- Maintains good driving performance even on rough or uneven surfaces.
3. Suitable for solid tires or pneumatic tires
- This type of rim usually supports solid tires or industrial pneumatic tires, which can be flexibly selected according to working conditions;
- Solid tires are puncture-resistant and suitable for factories/steel/glass industries, while pneumatic tires are suitable for applications that require a certain degree of shock absorption.
4. Easy to maintain
- Usually a 5-piece structure, including a locking ring, a clamping ring, a retaining ring, etc., which can quickly disassemble and install tires and reduce maintenance time;
- Very practical for forklift operating environments with high frequent tire changes, such as ports or mining areas.
5. Extend tire life
- Matching the right rim can distribute tire pressure more evenly, reducing uneven tire wear or structural fatigue caused by mismatch;
- Reduce the risk of tire blowout and improve overall operational efficiency.
