In the evolving world of industrial and material handling, the demands on equipment are greater than ever. BKT's Maglift tyre range is designed to meet these challenges head-on, offering superior performance, durability, and energy efficiency, especially for electric forklifts.
The Maglift tyres are crafted with advanced materials that provide exceptional wear and heat resistance, making them ideal for heavy-duty operations in logistics hubs and industrial environments. These tyres not only extend the operational lifespan of forklifts but also reduce maintenance needs and downtime.
BKT’s Maglift solid tyre range is available in an extensive array of sizes in standard and lip fitment versions. The tread design of both the STD and LIP tyres is the same; however LIP tyres differ in shape at base. LIP tyres offer easier and quicker fitment. The special base design guarantees firm fitment on to the rim without any slippage thus eliminating the requirement of locking rings and flange rings.
Standard marking (black) tyres remain in popular demand for forklift operations and BKT offers a large portfolio of sizes across this standard marking tyre range. Over the past two decades, the indoor forklift applications have boomed thanks to the rise of e-commerce, online shopping and home deliveries. This trend has shaped the material handling and logistics world, leading to a rise in popularity for non-marking forklift tyres. Indeed, some companies do not want to see tyre marks or black rubber dust on their floors or goods, and a growing number of industries have set regulations that require the use of non-marking tires. BKT’s Maglift non-marking tyres offer the perfect solution for settings where floors must remain clean and where hygiene plays an important role, such as airports, hospitals, warehouses, grocery stores, trade show floors, and other indoor environments.
Enhanced Performance for Electric Forklifts
One of the standout features of the Maglift range is its low rolling resistance, which is crucial for improving energy efficiency. This feature is particularly beneficial for electric forklifts, as it reduces energy consumption and extends battery life. With the rise of electric and autonomous forklifts, the need for tyres that can support heavier loads without compromising stability or safety is paramount. Maglift tyres excel in this area, offering increased load capacity while maintaining top-tier performance.
Improved Comfort and Safety
Operator comfort and safety are also key considerations in the design of Maglift tyres. These tyres offer improved shock absorption and vibration reduction, minimizing operator fatigue and enhancing productivity. This ergonomic design is essential for maintaining a safe and efficient operating environment, particularly in high-intensity settings.
A Versatile and Sustainable Solution
Maglift tyres are versatile and cater to a wide range of applications, including reconditioned trucks and forklifts that operate for shorter periods. Their design aligns with sustainability goals, making them an affordable and environmentally friendly option for various industrial needs.
As the material handling industry continues to evolve, BKT’s Maglift tyres stand out as a reliable, efficient, and forward-thinking solution, ensuring that forklifts can perform optimally in the most demanding environments.
