Sidewall Holder

Gradeall’s tyre sidewall holder comes with many benefits for the operator to enjoy, such as:

Ideal for Storage

The sidewall holder allows sidewalls to be slid on and can hold two full stacks. Each stack contains 25 sidewalls in total. Access to the stacks whilst on the holder is excellent, which allows them to be strapped together and loaded onto a trailer or shipping container with ease.

Made for Forklifts

The sidewall holder places the sidewalls at an ideal height for loading by hand and for unloading the stacks with a forklift. Operators do not need to bend to set down or pick up sidewalls as the holder accepts the sidewalls at the ideal height. This reduces the likelihood of back-related strain, minimising the potential for downtime.

The entire structure can be moved around on site thanks to integrated forklift lifting points. A galvanised finish is available to ensure the sidewall holder withstands the effects of corrosion.

Clutter-Free Work Area

Rather than setting cut sidewalls on the ground which may in itself be wet, placing them on the sidewall holder keeps them raised off the ground and allows them to be pressure washed and left to dry if required. This also means the busy work area around a sidewall cutter and tyre baler can remain clutter-free, making it much safer for operators to work in without any trip hazards.

If you’re segregating sidewalls to send elsewhere or wanting to keep your yard clutter-free and safer to work in, the sidewall holder is a simple yet effective storage accessory.

Improves Productivity

With optimised storage and more space to work onsite, the sidewall holder hugely improves worker productivity. As it holds two stacks of sidewalls side by side, this effectively reduces the need to constantly bend down to pick up sidewalls. As such, this doesn’t impact workers’ physical health, and instead sustains their energy levels for other duties. Overall, the sidewall holder is an efficient solution that will be appreciated by everyone on the site.

Gradeall International does not only provide you with the specialised equipment to process tyres, but also provides several tools for organisation and convenience. One of these tools is the Tyre Sidewall Holder, used to stack sidewalls while working on site.

Tyre Sidewall Holders is from our Tyre Recycling range and can be considered as the second step in the tyre recycling process. Processing tyres for recycling starts with using the Sidewall Cutter, where the sidewalls of the tyre are separated from the bead, further facilitating the shredding process of the rubber tyres.

The Tyre Sidewall Holder can now be used to stack the sidewalls for the next step in the recycling process. This next step can either be the baling of the tyre using the MK2 or MK3 Tyre Baler, or the stacking of the tyres to transport to other facilities. 

Why use the Tyre Sidewall Holder?

In addition to providing a clutter-free workplace area, allowing for perfect storage, improving productivity and being designed for easy loading and off-loading of forklifts, the Tyre Sidewall Holder has these additional features:

1. Stacking up to 50 tyres per every holder, in groups of two, side by side.
2. The sidewall holder puts the tyres at a hand’s reach, hence allowing for easy access and fewer opportunities for your operators to suffer from back-related injuries.
3. The tyres are strapped together using wires for ease of loading, transporting and off-loading as well at the desired destination. 
4. The Tyre Sidewall Holder can hold tyres with a maximum internal diameter of 572 mm and a maximum external diameter of 1050 mm.
5. Gradeall Tyre Sidewall Holder is beneficial for the environment through organising separated tyres until they are later used or transported, instead of waiting around until these tyres leave for their destination. You can make additional room to do both: Process the tyres and hold them in the sidewall holder, while you recycle more tyres. 
6. The positive impact of the Tyre Sidewall Holder doesn’t stop at stacking up tyres. The holder helps in reducing the time and cost of transporting tyres from one place to another. Especially when it comes to working in remote areas, where trucks have to travel for long periods of time.
7. Having the tyres stacked and packed into groups means transporting large amounts of tyres, fewer trips, lower fuel costs and less time consumed. On the other side, fewer truck trips also mean less fuel and exhaust which is hazardous to the environment and feeds global warming. 

The Tyre Sidewall Holder is one piece of equipment that will provide ultimate functionality and ease of processing on the site of your work.
