OTR Solid Tires are specifically designed for use in heavy-duty applications. Unlike pneumatic tires, which are filled with air, solid tires are made from layers of rubber and other resilient materials. This construction eliminates the risk of punctures and blowouts, making them particularly suited for environments where sharp objects and rough terrain are common.
The Construction of OTR Solid Tires
The durability of OTR solid tires is largely attributed to their unique construction. These tires are made from a solid rubber compound, which is typically reinforced with additional materials to enhance their strength and resilience. This solid construction provides several benefits:
Puncture Resistance: The absence of air means there is no risk of punctures, a significant advantage in environments with sharp debris.
Load-Bearing Capacity: OTR solid tires can support heavier loads compared to pneumatic tires, making them ideal for heavy machinery.
Longevity: The robust materials used in OTR solid tires contribute to a longer lifespan, reducing the frequency of replacements and downtime.
