Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What does TSW stand for and why does it matter?
A: TSW stands for Tapered Side Wall. This profile provides better load distribution and reduces side-wall stress compared to flat-wall designs. The SU 10X4X6.5-TSW-EZ is designed for electric lift trucks that require improved shock absorption on uneven warehouse floors and ramps.
Q: What is Cushothane EZ compound and how does it differ from standard polyurethane?
A: Cushothane EZ is a proprietary polyurethane formulation engineered for indoor warehouse and distribution use. It offers superior floor traction without marking and resists wear better than standard polyurethane. The EZ designation indicates an easy-release or low-temperature-resistant variant; confirm the exact spec sheet with your supplier.
Q: Is the SU 10X4X6.5-TSW-EZ equivalent to Yale 550106057?
A: Yes, the SU 10X4X6.5-TSW-EZ is a direct replacement for Yale 550106057. However, note that Yale may specify tread pattern and compound in their original documentation. Always verify your Yale lift truck model and production year before ordering, as tapered sidewall designs may not fit all wheel hub types.
Q: Can I use the SU 10X4X6.5-TSW-EZ in freezer environments?
A: Cushothane EZ is formulated for indoor warehouse and distribution environments, typically 50F to 95F. Use in freezer environments below 32F is not recommended without written approval from the manufacturer. Cold temperatures harden polyurethane, reducing traction and increasing cracking risk. If freezer use is required, request a cold-weather-rated compound alternative.
Q: Is the SU 10X4X6.5-TSW-EZ a press-on tire?
A: Yes, the SU 10X4X6.5-TSW-EZ is a press-on design for 6.5 inch wheel bore. The tapered sidewall profile requires careful alignment during pressing to avoid binding or damage to the tapered section. Use a tire press with proper centering guides and apply even pressure; asymmetric pressing can bend the sidewall.
