Cat® Flexport™ TiresAvailable New and Remanufactured forSmall and Medium Wheel Loaders

Smoother ride reduces operator fatigue and machine stressFlexport tires are designed with holes molded through the outer ring of the tire’s sidewalls to improve tire fl exibility and stability. The increased tire fl exibility allows the tires to handle all surfaces with a greatly improved ride over that of other solid tires, resulting in increased operator comfort, reduced operator fatigue and reduced machine stress.

Unlike other solid tires, Flexport tires can be used on unimproved surfaces as well as severe applications. Regardless of the application, the suppleness of Flexport tires absorbs much of the shock that the standard solid tire passes on to the operator and machine.

Flexport design advantages

The Flexport elliptical design is far superior to the TY Cushion round design. When placed under a load, the elliptical design will compress into a round shape, which reduces stress points and reduces the likelihood of cracking or chunking. In comparison, the TY Cushion round design, under pressure, compresses into a fl at shape underneath the load. This fl at shape creates stress points on the sides of the hole, which can lead to cracking and chunking.

Transportation costsFlexport tires are stocked in the Caterpillar logistics system and can be ordered using your standard parts ordering routine. Cat Flexport tires will be shipped following standard dealer shipping instructions.

WarrantyCaterpillar tires have a separate warranty statement (SELF5330) covering defects in material and workmanship. Claims are processed using the normal service claims system.
