Press-On Polyurethane Forklift Tire 13 x 5.5 x 10 – 10358-AO

Measuring 13 inches in outside diameter, 5.5 inches across the tread, and 10 inches at the mounting bore, this press-on forklift tire carries a polyurethane tread bonded to a steel press-on band. Polyurethane holds more load for its size than rubber and resists the cutting, chunking, and compression fatigue that flatten softer compounds under a steady load, which is why it is favored on electric lift trucks running smooth indoor floors.

The tire mounts by hydraulic press onto the wheel, an interference fit between the steel band and the hub that needs a press to seat and to remove rather than a bolt-up. At roughly 25 pounds, it is sized to a specific wheel, so the 10 inch mounting bore and 13 inch outside diameter are the figures that govern fit.

Confirm the outside diameter, tread width, and mounting bore against the tire being replaced, since press-on tires of similar look are built to several diameters and a band that does not match the hub will not press on square.
