Smooth Moves
Continental SC20 reach truck tires.
At Liftrucks NZ, we know that when it comes to forklifts and reach trucks, performance starts at ground level—literally. That’s why, when a customer came to us with rough warehouse flooring that was causing discomfort and inconsistent load handling, we knew the right tyres would be just as important as the right truck.
Our solution? A fleet of Still FMX 17 reach trucks, each equipped with Continental SC20 solid cushion traction tyres—a proven upgrade that has delivered smoother performance, improved operator comfort, and greater versatility across indoor and outdoor conditions.
Built for Tough Warehouse Floors
The Continental SC20 is designed to handle the realities of industrial flooring. Where standard tyres struggle, SC20s shine—providing the stability and ride quality needed for demanding applications.
Key features include:
Low rolling resistance – for better energy efficiency and reduced strain on electric trucks
Superior vibration damping – creating a noticeably smoother ride over uneven surfaces
Closed tread design – to minimise debris pickup while still delivering grip
High wear resistance – ensuring long life in intensive applications
Improved operator comfort – reducing fatigue over long shifts
For our customer, this meant better pallet control, fewer vibrations transmitted through the mast and operator compartment, and overall smoother operation on rough concrete floors.
Indoors, Outdoors – No Problem
Another major benefit of the SC20 tyres is their ability to handle transitional spaces—moving between indoor warehouse areas and outdoor loading zones with ease. This makes them ideal for New Zealand warehouses with mixed-surface operations or exposed loading yards.
Combined with the trusted performance of the Still FMX 17 reach truck, this fleet is now confidently managing tasks in both environments—without needing to compromise on ride quality or performance.
Still FMX17 deliveries begin.
