Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What is polyurethane and how does it differ from rubber in the SU 10x5x6.25-SF-P?
A: Polyurethane is a synthetic elastomer that is harder and more durable than natural or synthetic rubber. The SU 10x5x6.25-SF-P tire uses polyurethane (P designation) for extended wear life, especially in harsh warehouse conditions with oils, solvents, and heavy use cycles. Polyurethane tires are resistant to abrasion, ozone, and chemical damage. They also generate less heat during operation. Polyurethane tires cost more than rubber but may provide 20 to 30 percent longer service life in demanding applications.
Q: What lift truck models accept the SU 10x5x6.25-SF-P tire?
A: The SU 10x5x6.25-SF-P is a 10 inch OD, 5 inch width, 6.25 inch bore press-on tire designed for electric pallet jacks and small counterbalanced forklifts that require 10x5 tire sizing. Common compatible models include some Yale, Raymond, and Crown electric lift trucks. Always verify the tire size specification in your lift trucks manual before ordering. The 5 inch width is wider than the 4 inch standard, so confirm your hub accepts this width.
Q: Can I mix polyurethane and rubber tires on the same lift truck?
A: Mixing tire materials on the same lift truck is not recommended. Different materials have different wear rates, rolling resistance, and hardness, which creates uneven load distribution and uneven traction. If your truck has four drive wheels, use all polyurethane or all rubber. If you must transition from rubber to polyurethane, replace all tires at the same time for balanced performance and steering control.
Q: What is the load capacity of the SU 10x5x6.25-SF-P?
A: Specific load rating for the SU 10x5x6.25-SF-P is not provided in current documentation. Contact the manufacturer or distributor with your equipment model number and serial range to confirm the exact load rating. Do not assume load capacity based on tire size alone. Always verify the maximum allowable load in your lift trucks manual and confirm it does not exceed the tire rating. Overloading causes premature failure and creates safety hazards.
Q: How do I maintain the SU 10x5x6.25-SF-P polyurethane tire?
A: Polyurethane tires require minimal maintenance. Clean with a damp cloth monthly to remove salt, oil, and dirt that can degrade the material. Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Polyurethane does not degrade as quickly as rubber in hot or humid conditions, so storage life is typically longer. Inspect monthly for cracks, chunks, or separation from the steel core. Replace immediately if damage appears. With proper maintenance, polyurethane tires commonly deliver 5 to 7 years of service.
Q: Is the SU 10x5x6.25-SF-P tire compatible with Superior pallet jacks?
A: Superior is an aftermarket parts brand that manufactures wheels, tires, and casters. Superior does not manufacture pallet jacks. If your pallet jack is made by Crown, Toyota, Raymond, Yale, or another OEM brand and requires 10x5x6.25 tire sizing, then the SU 10x5x6.25-SF-P may be compatible. Check your pallet jacks manual for tire size and hub bore diameter. If your manual specifies this exact size, the tire is compatible. When in doubt, contact the pallet jack manufacturer.
