1642TSHD TireSocks Heavy Duty – Professional Tire Covers for Aerial Work Platforms, Telehandlers, Cranes and Industrial Equipment
Maximum Floor Protection for Machines with 42-Inch Industrial Tires
The 1642TSHD TireSocks have been specifically developed for large industrial machines that regularly operate on sensitive indoor flooring where floor protection, workplace safety and a professional appearance are essential. These professional tire covers prevent black tire marks, rubber transfer, dust and light contamination, allowing heavy machinery to operate safely indoors without damaging valuable flooring.
The 1642TSHD is one of the most versatile TireSocks sizes and is used worldwide on telescopic boom lifts, articulating boom lifts, telehandlers, mobile cranes, heavy-duty forklifts and a wide range of industrial equipment. Manufactured from durable industrial-grade materials with a precision fit and a water-resistant outer coating, these TireSocks provide a long-lasting and cost-effective alternative to expensive non-marking tires.
Reinforced floor protection for intensive, heavy-duty use
The 1642TSHD TireSocks Heavy Duty are the reinforced version of the 1642TS, 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 1642TSHD differs from the standard 1642TS 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.

One Machine for Both Indoor and Outdoor Applications
Many equipment rental companies and contractors want to use the same machine for both outdoor and indoor projects. Without proper floor protection, this often requires a second machine fitted with non-marking tires.
With the 1642TSHD TireSocks, the same aerial work platform, telehandler or industrial machine can quickly be prepared for use on sensitive indoor flooring. This increases machine utilisation, reduces investment costs and minimises cleaning requirements.
