Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What electric lift trucks use the SU 10X4X65-R-DIAMOND tire?
A: The SU 10X4X65-R-DIAMOND (10 inch OD, 4 inch width, 6.5 inch bore) is engineered for electric counterbalanced forklifts and similar lift equipment that require 10x4x6.5 tire sizing. Verify your lift trucks manual for tire size before ordering. This tire does not fit drive wheel applications on equipment using 10x5 or larger widths.
Q: Does the diamond groove pattern affect traction or load capacity?
A: The diamond groove tread pattern improves lateral traction and steering response on smooth concrete floors. It does not reduce load capacity. The SU 10X4X65-R-DIAMOND maintains a 1425 lbs load rating at the 6.5 inch hub diameter. Choose diamond pattern when your facility has slippery or wet floors. Choose smooth flat pattern for standard dry warehouse floors.
Q: How do I install the press-on rubber tire onto the wheel hub?
A: Press-on tires require a tire press or hydraulic press machine. Position the steel ring core of the tire onto the hub, then press the tire onto the hub until the tire seats firmly and evenly. Do not hammer or force the tire by hand. After installation, spin the wheel to verify the tire sits concentric (no wobbling). If your facility does not have a press, contact a tire service center or equipment distributor who can install it for you.
Q: What is the maximum load rating and what happens if I exceed it?
A: The SU 10X4X65-R-DIAMOND carries a 1425 lbs load rating at the 6.5 inch mounting diameter. Exceeding this rating causes rapid tire wear, heat buildup, and potential press-on failure. The tire will separate from the hub or develop cracks in the rubber. Always verify your lift trucks maximum load capacity and compare it to your tire load rating. If unsure, contact the lift truck manufacturer.
Q: When should I replace this tire?
A: Replace the SU 10X4X65-R-DIAMOND when rubber chunks are missing, visible cracking appears in the tread or sidewall, the tire separates from the steel core, or tread wear is down to one-quarter inch. Also replace immediately if the tire wobbles on the hub or makes noise during operation. Worn or damaged tires reduce steering control and increase stopping distance. Do not attempt to repair press-on tires. Replacement is the only safe option.
Q: How do I store and maintain this tire?
A: Store SU 10X4X65-R-DIAMOND tires indoors at room temperature, away from direct sunlight, heat sources, and ozone (keep away from electrical equipment). Do not stack tires on top of each other. Clean the tread occasionally with a damp cloth to remove salt and debris. Inspect monthly for cracks or separation. Rubber degrades faster in hot or humid environments. A well-maintained tire can last 3 to 5 years depending on usage intensity.
