Benefits and applications

This tyre + tube is ideal for wheelbarrows used in garden, construction or yard environments. The load capacity of 165 kg reliably covers typical transport tasks such as soil, rubble, wood or garden waste. The recommended tyre pressure of 2.1 bar provides a good balance of stability, cushioning and easy rolling.

The V-5501A tread pattern offers secure grip on unpaved paths, lawns and construction site surfaces. Thanks to the 2PR construction, the tyre is lightweight yet sufficiently robust for the intended use at low speeds up to 10 km/h. The TR13 tube with straight valve allows easy inflation with common air pumps or compressors.

Explanation of technical terms

• TT (Tube Type): Tyre construction in which a separate tube is used inside the tyre. In contrast, TL (Tubeless) does not require a tube.
• PR (Ply Rating): Indicator of the load capacity class of a tyre. It shows how robust the carcass is designed. A higher PR number generally means higher load capacity.
• Rim size: Indicates the rim diameter on which the tyre is mounted, here 8 inch.
• Valve type TR13: Standard rubber valve with straight valve stem, commonly used on wheelbarrow and small tyre tubes.
• Max. speed: The maximum permissible speed at which the tyre may be used – here 10 km/h, suitable for hand-guided equipment such as wheelbarrows.
