The Safety Risk of 'Slick' Tires
When your forklifts move from a dry dock into a cold storage unit, moisture builds up. On a standard, hard polyurethane tire, this creates a 'skate' effect. Braking becomes unpredictable, and acceleration becomes a struggle for traction. It's not just a productivity issue - it's a safety risk.
Cushothane® EZ™: The Traction Specialist
The EZ™ compound is the softest available polyurethane in our lineup. By being slightly more compliant, it creates a larger footprint and 'bites' into cold or wet floors more effectively than harder tires.
The Benefits of a 'Softer' Compound:
- Unrivaled Traction: Specifically designed for cold storage and freezer applications.
- Absolute Comfort: The softer material absorbs floor cracks and transitions, providing a smooth ride for the driver.
- Affordability: High performance doesn't have to be expensive. The EZ is our most universal and cost-effective solution.
