Tyre wear indicators
Trelleborg Wheel Systems’ Pit Stop Line innovation for its premium range industrial tyres aids in ascertaining when a forklift tyre is worn out and needs replacing. Benefits are said to include cost savings, improved safety, boosted uptime and greater convenience and efficiency when servicing forklifts.

The Pit Stop Line is an orange line which is embedded into the tyre. The indicator is visible on the tyre wall and is designed to reveal itself across the surface of the tyre when the rubber has reached sight of the end of its lifetime.
This reliable gauge means users can replace tyres at the right time, not using them too long, which is unsafe, and not replacing them too early, which is inefficient.
