1222TS TireSocks – Professional Tire Covers for Forklifts, Aerial Work Platforms and Industrial Equipment
Optimal Floor Protection for Medium-Sized Industrial Tires
The 1222TS TireSocks are designed for machines equipped with medium-sized industrial tires that regularly operate on sensitive indoor floors. Whether used in warehouses, distribution centers, manufacturing facilities, airports, exhibition halls or logistics environments, the 1222TS prevents black tire marks, rubber transfer and light dirt without the need to invest in expensive non-marking tires.
The TireSocks are easily installed over the existing tires, creating an instant protective barrier between the tire and the floor. This keeps floors clean and presentable while allowing the machine to continue operating on its original tires.

Prevent Tire Marks Without Using Non-Marking Tires
Many companies invest in non-marking tires to protect sensitive floors. However, these tires are considerably more expensive, often wear faster and are not available for every machine.
With TireSocks, you can continue using your existing tires while protecting the floor only when necessary. This makes TireSocks a flexible and cost-effective solution for temporary projects, maintenance work, cleanrooms, distribution centers, food processing facilities and manufacturing environments.

Frequently Asked Questions
Are the 1222TS TireSocks suitable for both electric and LPG forklifts?
Yes. The 1222TS is widely used on both electric and LPG-powered forklifts, provided the tire size matches the specifications.
How long do TireSocks last?
The service life depends on the floor surface, machine weight and operating conditions. Under normal indoor use, Standard TireSocks typically last between two weeks and two months. For intensive applications, we recommend the Heavy Duty version.
Can TireSocks be used outdoors?
No. TireSocks are specifically designed for use on clean, dry indoor surfaces. Operating on rough asphalt or concrete outdoors will significantly accelerate wear.
How do I determine the correct size?
Simply check the tire size printed on the sidewall of your tire or contact our team. Based on your machine model or tire size, we will recommend the correct TireSocks for your application.
