Press-on solid tires are widely used in industrial and commercial applications due to their durability, stability, and low maintenance requirements. Unlike pneumatic tires, which rely on air pressure, press-on solid tires are made entirely of rubber or a combination of rubber and polyurethane, making them resistant to punctures and ideal for harsh operating environments.

Press-on solid tires are engineered with a focus on strength and longevity. Their structure typically consists of three main layers:

Tread Layer: This is the outermost layer and is made from wear-resistant rubber or polyurethane. It provides traction and bears the brunt of surface contact and abrasion.

Cushion Layer: Positioned beneath the tread, this layer is designed to absorb shock and reduce vibration. Although press-on tires do not provide the same level of cushioning as pneumatic tires, this layer contributes to operator comfort and protects the equipment.

Base Layer: The innermost layer consists of a hard rubber compound bonded to a steel or metal band, which allows the tire to be securely pressed onto the rim or hub of the wheel. This base ensures a tight fit and supports the load carried by the vehicle.

Press-on solid tires are commonly produced in one-piece or two-piece configurations. The one-piece version integrates all components into a single unit, while the two-piece version allows for a replaceable tread ring, which can be more cost-effective in some applications.

The Smooth profile provides a greater contact area with the work surface, offering better load distribution and increased stability. The larger footprint area creates better traction in most applications for starting and stopping.
