Non-Marking Hard Surface Skid Steer Tires Built For Longevity
Evolution Wheel's Hard Surface Non-Marking Solid Skid Steer Tires
Hard surface skid steer tires are built specifically for longevity on concrete and asphalt. The unique tread pattern on the EWRS-HS-NM series skid steer tires has twice the surface area of the all-terrain version. This spreads the ground pressure over a wider area on the tire which limits wear.
The tire also is designed for a comfortable ride for the operator. Being a perfect rolling circle allows the tire to skid smoothly while performing tight turns. The core geometry allows the tires to compress like a pneumatic tire but doesn’t have the bounce. Creating a smooth and stable ride to limit driver fatigue.
The EWRS-HS-NM is made with synthetic rubber and silica whereas our marking tires are made with natural rubber with carbon black. Carbon black is added to the rubber to help make the tire more resilient to wear however the drawback is that it leaves marks that are hard to clean. This isn’t an issue in most applications however when working in pharmaceutical, food & beverage, and new construction applications marking tires is not an option. That is why we use synthetic rubber and silica to make these tires. It allows us to get the same design features while only losing minimal wear resilience.
Features of the EWRS-NM Series
The EWRS-NM series is offered in both our hard surface and all-terrain tread designs as well as both our skid steer and telehandler models. They feature all the same benefits of traction and a comfortable ride, however, because they are made of synthetic rubber and silica instead of natural rubber, there are some differences such as:
- Good traction
- Low rolling resistance
- Low heat build-up
- Non-marking
- Same performance as traditional skid steer tires
- Have a slightly shorter lifespan than traditional skid steer tires
- Require the use of grounding straps because they don’t have the anti-static properties of standard skid steer tires
Most applications where non-marking tires are required will be indoor environments with hard surfaces. For this reason, our hard surface tread pattern is by far our most popular non-marking tire however we still offer a non-marking option in the all-terrain tread pattern as well for those specific applications.
All off Evolution Wheels tires are segmented for easy serviceability. With only a 3/4" wrench, the operator can change the segments in minutes if one of the segments gets damaged. Lowering cost/hr while increasing your ROI.
