SKIDCUP – AIRLESS SKID STEER TIRES
Revolutionizing Skid Steer Performance: The First Airless Tire that Maintains Maneuverability and Enhances Operator Comfort
Galileo Wheel presents SkidCup: Airless tires with patented technology that redefine durability for skid steer loaders and construction machinery. Designed for harsh working environments, these innovative airless skid steer tire eliminate punctures and provide superior ride comfort. Unlike solid tires, which transfer shocks and vibrations directly to the vehicle and the operator, SkidCup behaves like pneumatic tires, absorbing impacts - a clever reshaping from a convex to a concave sidewall creates an air cavity that's not inflated but still provides exceptional shock absorption.

Why do professionals choose AIRLESS SKID STEER TIRES
Airless: CupWheel technology eliminates downtime from tire damage
Professionals in construction, agriculture, and landscaping choose Galileo's airless skid steer tires because they completely eliminate the frustration and expense of flat tires. Unlike traditional pneumatic tires that risk punctures from construction debris, metal scraps, and jagged surfaces, SkidCup's innovative CupWheel technology creates a truly airless solution that maintains performance even when damaged. This zero-downtime advantage translates directly to improved productivity and reduced operational costs, allowing your equipment to keep working through conditions that would sideline conventional tires.
Superior Handling: Better traction and lateral stability
The unique design of SkidCup tires creates an optimal footprint that distributes weight more evenly across the surface. This larger contact area provides exceptional traction on varied terrain while significantly improving lateral stability compared to traditional skid loader tires. Operators experience fewer slips, better control when loaded, and more confident maneuvering in challenging environments. The enhanced grip and stability make precision work easier and more efficient, particularly when working on uneven surfaces or slopes.
Machine-Friendly: Absorbs shocks, protects machinery, and increases uptime
SkidCup's revolutionary structure acts as an integrated suspension system, absorbing impacts that would otherwise transfer directly to your equipment. This shock absorption capability protects vital components from excessive vibration and stress, extending the service life of your valuable machinery. By reducing wear on drive motors, hydraulic systems, and structural elements, these specialized skid steer tires lower maintenance costs while increasing overall equipment uptime. The durability of SkidCup tires also means fewer replacements, further enhancing your return on investment.
Enhanced Operator Comfort: Air pocket design ensures a smooth, cushioned ride
The innovative air pocket design incorporated into SkidCup tires delivers a remarkably smooth ride that reduces operator fatigue and improves working conditions. Unlike solid tires that transmit every bump and vibration directly to the operator, Galileo's airless technology provides cushioning comparable to—and often better than—pneumatic tires, but without the risk of flats. This enhanced comfort allows operators to work longer with less fatigue, improving both productivity and job satisfaction while reducing the physical strain of operating skid steer equipment on rough terrain.
Whether you're navigating construction sites, working on agricultural tasks, or handling landscaping projects, our no-flat skid loader tires provide durability matching solid tires while delivering ride comfort that surpasses pneumatic tires.
Skid-steer operators often find themselves working in harsh environments that result in costly downtime, increased tread wear, damage to equipment, and decreased load index, not to mention reduced operator comfort. Galileo's specially designed airless skid steer tires (SkidCup) eliminate these drawbacks, providing excellent traction and exceptional comfort while extending machinery lifetime. One major advantage of these skid loader tires is their ability to take on greater loads with improved lateral stability, ensuring zero downtime. Unlike traditional pneumatic tires, these no-flat skid steer tire options are resistant to punctures, making them the best choice for productivity-focused operations. Many companies now use SkidCup skid loader tire technology to eliminate bounce issues and provide the advantages their fleet needs, all within an excellent price range for the whole family of equipment.
