When you look at foamfilled tires, you might wonder how they can benefit you. It’s easy to see why they’re popular with operators who are constantly running over nails and scrap metal who are concerned about punctures; however, they can provide a solid return on investment for a variety of companies. Carlisle TyrFil is bringing the advantages of flatproof, foamfilled tires to clients who use them on a range of machines. From skidsteer loaders and debarking machines all the way to football fields and museum exhibits, TyrFil tires are wowing users with their durability and performance.

Mike Fullen, global sales trainer for Carlisle TyrFil, tells The Dirt’s Bryan Furnace that the most gamechanging aspect of TyrFil flatproofing is the way it eliminates the need for tire pressure monitoring. Because TyrFil replaces the air in pneumatic tires with an elastomer core, these tires never depressurize or go flat.

“It doesn’t make any difference if it’s 90 degrees today or 20 degrees tomorrow. The depressurization stays the same,” Fullen says.

That pressurization can have dramatic impacts when it comes to a tire’s longevity. When a Virginiabased company switched out their straddle carriers’ standard tires for filledpneumatics with TyrFil, Fullen says the average tire lifetime went from 3,500 hours to 10,000.
