Description
1654TSHD TireSocks Heavy Duty
Reinforced floor protection for intensive, heavy-duty use
The 1654TSHD TireSocks Heavy Duty are the reinforced version of the 1654TS, developed for machines with industrial tires that are used daily and intensively. They prevent black tire marks, rubber transfer, dust and contamination on sensitive floors, even when the machine operates for long periods under heavy loads.
Where the standard version is ideal for lighter, occasional use, the Heavy Duty version is built for demanding applications that require extra strength and a longer service life.
What makes the Heavy Duty version different?
The 1654TSHD differs from the standard 1654TS through an additional reinforced inner layer. This layer makes the tire cover more resistant to higher loads and intensive use, significantly increasing its service life in demanding conditions. The outer surface retains the same non-marking properties, so your floors stay fully protected.
- Additional reinforced inner layer for intensive, heavy-duty use.
- Withstands higher loads than the standard version.
- Longer service life during daily, intensive use.
- The same reliable non-marking protection on sensitive floors.
1654TSHD TireSocks – Professional Tire Covers for Telehandlers and Industrial Equipment
Optimum Floor Protection for Telehandlers with 54-Inch Industrial Tires
The 1654TSHD TireSocks have been specifically developed for large telehandlers and industrial machines equipped with 54-inch industrial tires that regularly operate on sensitive indoor flooring. These professional tire covers prevent black tire marks, rubber transfer, dust and light contamination, allowing heavy equipment to operate safely indoors without damaging valuable floors.
The 1654TSHD is one of the most widely used TireSocks sizes for large telehandlers in the European construction, equipment rental and industrial sectors. Manufactured from durable industrial-grade materials with a precision fit and a water-resistant outer coating, these tire covers provide a long-lasting and cost-effective alternative to expensive non-marking tires.
Specifically Designed for Large Telehandlers
Large telehandlers are increasingly being used in manufacturing facilities, distribution centres, warehouses, airports, prefabrication plants, data centres and other locations where heavy equipment must operate safely indoors.
Standard pneumatic tires, however, continue to leave black tire marks, rubber residue and dirt behind. The 1654TSHD TireSocks create a protective barrier around each tire, keeping floors clean while preventing costly damage. This allows the same machine to be used both outdoors and indoors without modification.

Protect Valuable Industrial Flooring
Industrial flooring represents a significant investment. Especially in distribution centres, manufacturing facilities, warehouses, logistics centres, airports and industrial buildings, it is essential to keep floors clean and free from damage.
The 1654TSHD TireSocks prevent black tire marks, rubber transfer and dirt before they reach the floor. As a result, floors remain presentable, cleaning costs are reduced and the service life of the flooring is significantly extended.
The 1654TSHD TireSocks are ideal for use on:
- epoxy flooring;
- resin flooring;
- concrete floors;
- polished concrete floors;
- PVC flooring;
- warehouse floors;
- manufacturing facilities;
- distribution centres;

One Machine for Both Indoor and Outdoor Applications
Many rental companies prefer to use the same telehandler for both outdoor and indoor projects. Without adequate floor protection, this often requires a second machine fitted with non-marking tires.
With the 1654TSHD TireSocks, the same telehandler can be prepared within minutes for operation on sensitive indoor flooring. This increases machine utilisation, reduces capital investment and lowers maintenance and cleaning costs.
For rental companies, this results in higher fleet utilisation, greater flexibility and lower operating costs.
