This is How They Restore Fork Lift Tires!

With regular car or truck tires, it might just be easiest and cheapest to replace them when their useful life runs out. Most of the time, they aren’t all that damaging to the bank if you want to buy yourself a new set and it’s probably not a good idea to wear out your welcome and run aging rubber when your safety depends on it as these tires are put through quite the wide variety of torture on the roads as they encounter all kinds of heat and debris. Maybe better to not take the chance in this area when your life is on the back of your tires.

This time, however, we check out a tire that most definitely may be one that you could look into repairing as it’s used in low-speed applications and doesn’t really face all that much abuse on a regular basis. Instead of simply replacing the tires, these guys take on the process of retreading them to make sure that the area that comes in contact with the ground is nice and grooved as to give the machines a solid patch of contact to operate in the safest situation possible.

Check out the video below that shows the retreading process that surely saves these guys thousands of dollars.  With a little bit of time and effort, they’ll be rolling around again in no time! After checking this one out for yourself, be sure to tell us what you think of this process and if you’ve ever retreaded tires in any capacity. In some situations, we’ve found that people have had luck with rejuvenating their tires but in others, they’ve found this process to be dangerous. I’m sure that the general consensus will be split on the matter so we urge you to chime in with your thoughts!
