OTR Engineered Solutions has released the smallest tire in its SolidBoss lineup of flat-free skid steer tires.

The new 31x10-20 (10-16.5) size joins the company’s four other options for smooth, solid tires. It is rated at a load capacity of 4,850 pounds at 15 mph. The other tires extend up to 8,113 pounds.

“The addition of the 31x10-20 size allows us to accommodate an even wider range of skid steers,” says Steve Jensen, OTR vice president of national accounts. “Customers have consistently asked for more flat-free options in this size category, and we’re excited to bring the proven durability and ride quality of SolidBoss smooth tires to even more machines and applications.”

The tire is designed for harsh environments, “including demolition sites, recycling facilities, scrap yards, waste handling operations, and other applications where tire damage and downtime can significantly impact productivity,” according to OTR.

It stands up to asphalt and concrete surfaces and has cushioning apertures to help absorb shock and smooth the ride, the company says.

OTR adds that its proprietary rubber compounds resist chunking, tearing and slicing damage, which extends service life, reduces maintenance costs and increases machine uptime.
