Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What are the exact dimensions of the SU 13.5X5X10-SF-P wheel?
A: The SU 13.5X5X10-SF-P is 13.500 inches in outside diameter by 5.000 inches in width. Metric equivalent is 342.90mm diameter by 127.00mm width. The smooth flat profile is designed for even load distribution on level surfaces.
Q: Is the SU 13.5X5X10-SF-P a press-on wheel and what material is it made from?
A: Yes, this is a press-on polyurethane wheel. Press-on wheels slide over a steel rim and are secured by an interference fit. Polyurethane construction provides good grip, load capacity, and floor protection on electric lift trucks.
Q: What lift truck models use the SU 13.5X5X10-SF-P wheel?
A: This wheel fits electric pallet jacks, walkie stackers, and ride-on lift trucks that use 13.5 inch diameter wheels with a 5 inch width requirement. Verify your truck model and current wheel specifications before ordering to confirm fitment.
Q: Can I replace just one wheel or do I need to replace the full set?
A: Replace wheels in pairs (both front or both rear) to maintain even handling and load distribution. Mixing new and worn wheels causes steering issues and uneven tire wear. If one wheel fails, inspect all wheels for matching wear patterns.
Q: How do I install a press-on polyurethane wheel like the SU 13.5X5X10-SF-P?
A: Press-on wheels slide onto the axle hub and rim assembly. No bolts or fasteners are needed. Position the wheel onto the hub and apply even pressure to seat it fully. Wheels should not rotate on the rim once properly installed. If a wheel is stuck, use a wheel puller tool and light heat to ease removal.
Q: What causes polyurethane wheel wear and how often should I replace it?
A: Polyurethane wheels wear faster on rough concrete, with heavy loads, and during high-mileage use. Typical life is 6 to 18 months depending on operating conditions. Replace when the wheel is visibly flat, chunked, or has lost its original profile. Worn wheels reduce braking grip and steering response.
