Frequently Asked Questions
Q: Is the SU 10 X 4 X 6.5-R-DIAMOND compatible with all electric lift trucks?
A: No. Compatibility depends on your truck model and drive wheel bore size. The 6.50 inch hub diameter and press-on design require you to verify your truck accepts this exact bore before purchasing. Cross-reference your truck serial range with the OEM specification sheet to confirm fitment.
Q: What does the diamond groove tread pattern do?
A: Diamond tread provides better traction and self-cleaning compared to smooth tires. It sheds debris and reduces flat spots during long stationary periods. For indoor smooth concrete floors, diamond tread offers moderate grip without excessive wear. For outdoor or textured surfaces, it performs better than smooth crown options.
Q: Can this molded rubber tire be retreaded when worn?
A: No. Molded natural rubber press-on tires are not retreadable. When tread wears to approximately 0.25 inches thickness or the core begins to crack, the tire must be replaced entirely. There is no repair alternative for worn cores or major tread loss.
Q: How long does this tire typically last in normal warehouse operation?
A: Molded rubber tires typically last 3 to 5 years with moderate warehouse duty (4 to 6 hours daily). Duration depends on floor surface, load weight, speed, and storage conditions. Tires stored in direct sunlight or extreme heat degrade faster. Inspect quarterly for cracks, flat spots, or core separation.
Q: What surfaces work best with diamond tread rubber tires?
A: Diamond tread rubber performs well on smooth concrete, tile, and light outdoor terrain. It is not recommended for sticky surfaces (tar, wet leaves) as debris buildup reduces traction. For heavy outdoor use or rough concrete, polyurethane options with higher durometer ratings provide better wear resistance.
Q: What is the maximum load capacity for this tire?
A: The SU 10 X 4 X 6.5-R-DIAMOND does not have a standalone load rating. Load capacity is determined by the truck frame, lift mechanism, and battery rating, not the tire alone. For capacity information, reference your truck manual. Overloading causes tire deformation, core failure, and premature wear.
