China Solid Tires for Skid Steer Loaders - Reliable Factory Suppliers of 10-16.5 and 12-16.5 Sizes
PRODUCTS DESCRIPTION
For skid steer loaders, two distinct tread patterns have been designed to suit different operating environments: the R708 and R711.
R708 Tread Pattern
Optimized for sandy and loose surfaces. It features excellent self-cleaning properties, which prevent the accumulation of mud and debris. The R708 provides superior traction and drivability on soft terrain.
R711 Tread Pattern
Designed for hard, rough surfaces and challenging environments such as mines, underground operations, and scrap yard. It offers high resistance to cuts, tears, and wear, making it suitable for demanding and abrasive conditions.
Solid tires are off-road tires (OFF THE ROAD), usually limited to a maximum speed of 25Km/h. As a solid tire for skid steer loaders, our company has designed two different patterns according to the different operating environments, namely R708 and R711. The structures of the two patterns are different and their applicable occasions are also different. R708 is suitable for ordinary sand roads. , R711 is suitable for hard and rough road surfaces and operating environments, such as mines, underground mines, and waste treatment plants.
Both 10-16.5 and 12-16.5 have two structural forms, namely pneumatic tire type solid tire and bonded solid tire. Both forms adopt the design of sidewall holes, which not only increases the shock absorption performance of solid tires , has improved its heat dissipation performance. Pneumatic tire-type solid tires need to be installed with rims. If the original vehicle is equipped with pneumatic tires of these two specifications, their rims are one-piece and cannot be installed with solid tires.
Important Installation Note: Vehicles using 10-16.5 and 12-16.5 pneumatic tires need to have their rims replaced when changing to solid tires! The rims that are usually replaced are not the common two-piece split rims, but two- or three-piece flat-bottomed rims with locking rings, 6.00-16 and 8.00-20, respectively.
Bonded 10-16.5 and 12-16.5 are steel rims customized according to the installation data of the vehicle. Through advanced processing technology, the rubber is bonded to the surface of the steel rim. The stability and safety of the tire are good, no need to press-fit, directly Easy to install and use.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is the difference between the R708 and R711 tread patterns?
The R708 pattern is optimized for sandy and loose surfaces with excellent self-cleaning properties to prevent mud accumulation. The R711 pattern is designed for hard, rough surfaces like mines, underground operations, and scrap yards, offering high resistance to cuts, tears, and wear.
What is the maximum speed limit for these solid skid steer loader tires?
These solid tires are classified as off-road tires (OTR) and are designed with a maximum speed limit of 25Km/h.
Why must the rims be replaced when changing from pneumatic tires to solid tires?
The original vehicles equipped with 10-16.5 and 12-16.5 pneumatic tires use one-piece rims, which cannot accommodate solid tires. Therefore, these rims must be replaced with two- or three-piece flat-bottomed rims with locking rings (6.00-16 and 8.00-20, respectively).
What are the benefits of the sidewall holes design?
The sidewall holes design serves a dual purpose: it increases the shock absorption performance of the solid tires and significantly improves their heat dissipation performance during operation.
What is the advantage of bonded solid tires over pneumatic-type solid tires?
Bonded solid tires (10-16.5 and 12-16.5) feature customized steel rims where the rubber is directly bonded to the rim surface using advanced technology. This provides excellent tire stability and safety, eliminates the need for press-fitting, and allows for direct, easy installation and use.
