The rubber meeting the road takes on a whole new meaning when it comes to skid steer tires. Meet the Carlisle Ground Force 400 R-4, which is a strong tire for general duty applications involving skid steer loaders. Thanks to its reinforced construction, this model can safely handle heavy loads and tough conditions.
First of all, the Carlisle Ground Force 400 R-4 features a directional tread pattern with blocks that grant superior traction and surface contact at all times. The overlap design at the center offers more stability when maneuvering the loader, ensuring full control of the vehicle. Moreover, the wide blocks provide confident surface contact, effectively preventing common issues such as slipping. The lugs are connected with a center rib to combat deformation under high load stress. In addition, the high void ratio keeps the footprint clean of mud, debris, and other ground parts to increase safety and create a cozy work habitat for the operator.
What's more, the large open shoulders of the Carlisle Ground Force 400 R-4 add extra lateral traction and improve the cornering stability. Its durable sidewalls shield the rim from potential scrapes and punctures. Also, they upgrade the maximum load capacity of the tire, allowing a single one to carry up to 9,900 lbs, depending on size. A complex rubber compound resists wear and tear, offering increased durability against chips and cuts. Finally, this model is available on the US market in many popular sizes with rim diameters between 10" and 19.5".
