Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What are the exact dimensions of the SU 135X6X105-FT-P tire?
A: The SU 135X6X105-FT-P has an outside diameter of 13.500 inches (342.90mm) and a width of 6.000 inches (152.40mm). This is also referenced as 13.5 x 6, 13-1/2 x 6, or 342.90mm x 152.40mm depending on your documentation standard.
Q: Can I use the SU 135X6X105-FT-P on a narrow-aisle truck that requires 13.5 x 5 tires?
A: No. The SU 135X6X105-FT-P is 6.000 inches wide and cannot be substituted for 5-inch wide applications. Width mismatches affect load distribution, stability, and will not fit the wheel properly on narrower rims. Always verify your truck wheel width specification before ordering.
Q: What material is the SU 135X6X105-FT-P made from?
A: The SU 135X6X105-FT-P is made from polyurethane. This material is non-marking, resistant to oils and solvents, and provides good wear resistance for warehouse and light assembly operations on hard floors.
Q: How do I install a press-on tire like the SU 135X6X105-FT-P?
A: Press-on tires are mounted by stretching the tire over the hub wheel core. No tools are required, but you need proper tire handling equipment such as a tire spreader or manual press to avoid personal injury. Always ensure the tire is fully seated on the hub, and verify that the center bore matches your wheel hub diameter. If resistance is high during installation, stop and check for size mismatches.
Q: What is the typical lifespan of the SU 135X6X105-FT-P?
A: Polyurethane press-on tires typically last 3-5 years in warehouse service when properly maintained. Lifespan depends on load weight, floor conditions, ambient temperature (extreme heat shortens life), and storage conditions. Keep unused tires away from direct sunlight and extreme heat to prevent hardening and cracking.
