Pneumatic Construction Tires
Skid Steer Tires
Application Specific Tread Patterns
R4 Tread
Most versatile, least expensive

- Ideal for loose material
- Most economical
- Large void space for better dirt clearing
Non-Directional Tread
Good value, longer wearing

- Ideal for hard pack surfaces
- Ideal in snow & ice
- Good in sand
L4/L5 Tread
Puncture resistant, longest wearing

- Ideal for road work (paving etc)
- Heavy duty tread resists punctures
- Small air voids, more rubber
Backhoe Tires
Ply Ratings
Construction tires are subject to heavy abuse. Ply rating is important for long term usage and a heavy ply will provide:
- Better puncture resistance
- Longer service duty
- Sidewall protection is typically heavier and resists cutting
Tread Pattern
Try and match your tread pattern to your application.
- I3 - specialty pattern with good flotation
- F3 - steer tire for road usage
- R4 - general service and loose material
- L4/L5 - better for asphalt use
- Radial - radial for asphalt use than bias
Sidewall Protection
Are your tires wearing out or damaged by impacts?
- Choose a heavier ply
- Select tires with stronger sidewalls
Telehandler Tires
Telehandlers are widely used in the construction, commercial installation and film industry. They function much like a forklift but is more a crane than forklift, with the increased versatility of a telescopic boom that can extend forwards from the vehicle.
L2/G2 Tread
