Why Exmile CON-Series cured-on solid tires

The CON-Series uses a high natural-rubber tread compound for long wear in extreme use, with low rolling resistance (longer battery life on electric units, lower fuel on engine units) and a strong compound-to-steel bond for extended life. They’re positioned where the lowest cost per hour is the goal. The brochure also notes broad OEM approvals across major aerial brands (Manitou, Genie, JLG, Airo, Dingli).

Tread patterns (LUG / RIB / SM)

Match tread to your surface: LUG1–LUG5 for more bite on mixed surfaces, RIB1–RIB3 and SM (smooth) for smoother indoor floors and predictable contact. Pattern availability varies by size (see table).

Sizes & load ratings

Representative sizes from the Exmile CON-Series catalog. Load ratings are listed at 6, 10, and 25 km/h plus static in the brochure — send your size and operating speed and we’ll confirm the exact rating and available tread.

Best-fit applications

CON-Series shines on high-use scissor lifts in demanding yards or job sites, fleets prioritizing long wear + efficiency, and any application where downtime is costly and flat-proof matters.

How to choose — and shop by lift brand

Match your current size first, confirm the load rating at your real operating speed, then pick a tread available in that size. Shop by equipment brand: Genie · JLG · Skyjack · Snorkel. New to scissor-lift tires? See the Buying Guide.

Exmile CON-Series FAQ

What size scissor lift tires do I need (Genie, JLG, Skyjack, Snorkel)?

Scissor lift tires are sized by the molded dimensions (for example 12x4, 15x5, 406x125). The right size depends on your make and model - Genie GS, JLG ES, Skyjack SJ, and Snorkel S-series each use specific sizes. Send your machine model or the numbers on the current tire and we will match the exact Exmile CON-Series set. Shop by brand: Genie, JLG, Skyjack, Snorkel.

Are Exmile scissor lift tires non-marking?

Yes. The CON-Series uses a non-marking silica compound (no carbon black) that will not leave marks on concrete, coated, or sealed floors, and it is cured (mold-on) directly to the steel wheel for a permanent bond.

Do I need to replace all four scissor lift tires at once?

Usually yes. Scissor lifts need consistent tire diameter across all four corners to keep the platform level at height; mismatched wear can trip the pothole-protection system. Replace in sets (we offer 2-tire pair deals) and ideally all four together.

Does FTC carry boom lift and aerial work platform tires too?

Yes. The same Exmile CON-Series mold-on tires fit many boom lifts and vertical mast lifts (Genie, JLG, Snorkel) in addition to scissor lifts. Send your model and we will confirm fitment.
