18x7x12.125 Solid Tyre FAQs
What trucks use 18x7x12⅛ press-on solid tyres?
One of the most common cushion sizes, standard on 2–2.5 tonne electric counterbalance forklifts. Read all three numbers off the old tyre's sidewall — the 12⅛-inch band diameter is the critical one for wheel fitment.
What does the 18x7x12.125 size designation mean on a press-on tyre?
Press-on sizes read as diameter x width x band diameter in inches, so 18x7x12.125 gives all three numbers at once. The band diameter is the critical one — it must match the wheel you are pressing onto. Full dimensions are in the table above.
Are non-marking 18x7x12.125 press-on tires available?
Yes — and non-marking is one of the most requested compounds in cushion sizes, since these trucks mostly work polished indoor floors in food, pharma, electronics and retail. Non-marking rubber gives up some wear life for the clean-floor benefit; we will tell you how that trade lands for your site.
Do press-on tyres need air pressure or any maintenance?
None — nothing to inflate, no valve, no pressure checks. The only maintenance is visual: watch wear approaching the steel band, and cuts or chunking. That is exactly why indoor fleets like them — a cushion truck never loses a shift to a flat.
Which forklift brands use 18x7x12.125 press-on tyres?
This size is common across electric forklift and reach truck lines from Crown, Raymond, Toyota, Linde and Chinese brands. Press-on fitment is set by the wheel band diameter, so the sure check is measuring the wheel or reading the old tyre's sidewall.
Can we get 18x7x12.125 press-on tyres with our own brand?
Yes — OEM sidewall markings and packaging are standard for importer and dealer customers, and cushion moulds make custom branding straightforward. Ask the sales team for minimum quantities per compound.
What does a fresh 18x7x12.125 press-on change on the truck?
Traction, load cushioning and floor protection come back immediately — operators usually notice smoother travel on the first shift. Running worn press-ons does the opposite: hardened rubber transmits shock into the drive and suspension, which is how a cheap tyre ends up causing an expensive gearbox repair.
What should a 18x7x12.125 inquiry include?
The size (or a photo of the old tyre's sidewall), quantity, compound — black or non-marking — and destination port. Say at this stage if you want wheels mounted. Our sales team confirms price and schedule within one business day.
