Product Information

Full details

This Parnells Mobility Scooter Tyre & Tube Set in Grey is designed for electric wheelchairs and mobility scooters. Its key benefit is eliminating floor marking, reducing the need for frequent cleaning. A potential caveat is that the grey compound might offer slightly different resistance than traditional black tyres, requiring a brief adjustment period. This set includes both a tyre and a tube, featuring a durable construction suitable for regular use.

FAQs

What is the main advantage of the grey tyres?

The main advantage is that they are non-marking, which prevents scuff marks and stains on indoor flooring, reducing the need for frequent cleaning.

What is the maximum weight capacity per tyre?

Each tyre can support a maximum load of 185lbs (84kg) when inflated to 50psi.

What is the valve type on the included tube?

The tube comes with a TR87 bent metal valve, which facilitates easier access for inflation.

Will these tyres fit any mobility scooter?

These tyres are designed for mobility scooters and electric wheelchairs with specific tyre dimensions (235mm diameter, 75mm width) and tube size (2.80/2.50-4). Always check your current tyre specifications before purchasing.

How do I inflate the tyre correctly?

Inflate the tyre to the recommended pressure of 50psi. Ensure the tyre bead is properly seated on the rim before reaching the final pressure.

Are these tyres suitable for outdoor use?

Yes, they provide good traction for light outdoor use on paved surfaces. However, they are not intended for rough terrain or extreme conditions.

Troubleshooting

Tyre won't seat properly on the rim

Ensure the tube is not pinched between the tyre bead and the rim. Slightly deflate the tube and adjust the tyre. Ensure both sides of the tyre bead are evenly seated before inflating to 50psi.

Tyre leaks air slowly

Check the valve stem for damage or a loose core. Inspect the tyre and tube for punctures. If a puncture is found, the tube will need to be patched or replaced.

Tyre feels bumpy or uneven

Verify the tyre is inflated to the correct pressure (50psi). The tyre may not be seated correctly on the rim; deflate, readjust, and re-inflate. Check for internal damage to the tyre.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Eliminates floor marking and reduces cleaning needs.
  • Provides good traction for stable mobility.
  • Durable construction for extended product life.
  • Standard dimensions for wide compatibility.
  • Easy inflation with a bent metal valve.

Cons

  • May require a short adjustment period due to the grey compound.
  • Not designed for off-road or extreme conditions.
  • Specific load capacity may not suit very heavy users.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: This set includes one tyre and one tube. Installation typically involves removing the wheel from the mobility device, deflating the old tube, carefully levering off the old tyre, inserting the new tube (slightly inflated), seating the new tyre, and inflating to the recommended pressure of 50psi. Ensure the tyre bead is properly seated all around the rim.

Compatibility: The tyre dimensions are 235mm overall diameter and 75mm maximum section width. The tube size is 2.80/2.50-4. Verify these dimensions match your existing mobility scooter or electric wheelchair tyre specifications before purchase. The TR87 valve type is standard for many applications.

Care: To maintain performance and longevity, regularly check tyre pressure and inflate to 50psi as needed. Inspect the tyres for any embedded objects or damage. Clean the tyres with a damp cloth and mild soap; avoid harsh chemicals. Rotating the wheels periodically can promote even wear.
