Product Information

Full details

This heavy-duty inner tube is for owners of equipment with 6-inch wheels that fit tire sizes 145x70-6, 145x7.00-6, 4.00x5.00-6, 700-6, 400-6, or 450-65. Its key benefit is providing a durable replacement to keep your equipment operational. A potential caveat is the specific bent Schrader valve, which may not be suitable for all wheel designs. This tube offers a reliable solution for common tire issues, featuring a standard Schrader (car type) valve and a bent angle optimized for 6-inch rims.

FAQs

What does '145x70-6' mean for a tire size?

This typically refers to the tire's dimensions: 145mm width, 70mm aspect ratio (height as a percentage of width), and a 6-inch rim diameter.

Is this inner tube suitable for all 6-inch wheels?

It is compatible with 6-inch wheels that use tire sizes such as 145x70-6, but the bent valve angle may not suit every specific wheel design or rim configuration.

What type of valve does this inner tube have?

It has a Schrader valve, which is the same type found on most car tires.

Can I use this tube in a tubeless tire?

No, this is an inner tube designed for use in tires that require a tube. It is not a direct replacement for tubeless tire setups.

How do I know if the bent valve will work for my wheel?

The bent valve is generally designed to provide easier access for inflation. If your current valve stem is straight and difficult to reach, a bent one often helps. However, ensure there is sufficient clearance within the wheel assembly for the bend.

What is the recommended inflation pressure?

The recommended inflation pressure should be checked on the sidewall of the tire itself or in the equipment's manual, as it varies by application.

Troubleshooting

Tube will not inflate.

Ensure the Schrader valve core is properly seated and not damaged. Check that the air pump connection is secure.

Tire loses air rapidly after installation.

Double-check that the tire is fully seated on the rim and that no part of the inner tube is pinched between the tire bead and the rim. Inspect the tire for punctures or damage.

Bent valve is difficult to access for inflation.

Use a flexible extension hose for your air pump or inflator, or consider using a valve adapter if needed. Ensure the bent angle is oriented for optimal access.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Durable construction for extended use.
  • Wide compatibility with various 6-inch tire sizes.
  • Uses a standard Schrader valve for easy inflation.
  • Bent valve design can improve accessibility for pumping.
  • Includes a protective valve cap.

Cons

  • Bent valve may not fit all rim designs or be ideal for all inflation methods.
  • Specific to 6-inch wheels; not a universal fit.
  • Requires manual inflation; not a self-sealing tube.

Setup, Compatibility & Care Instructions

Compatibility: Ensure your tire is one of the compatible sizes: 145x70-6, 145x7.00-6, 4.00x5.00-6, 700-6, 400-6, or 450-65. The wheel rim must also accommodate a 6-inch diameter tire and a Schrader valve with a bent angle.

Setup:

  1. Remove the wheel from the equipment.
  2. Carefully unseat the tire from the rim.
  3. Remove the old inner tube.
  4. Inspect the inside of the tire and rim for sharp objects or damage.
  5. Slightly inflate the new inner tube to give it shape.
  6. Insert the valve stem through the designated hole in the rim.
  7. Tuck the tube evenly inside the tire.
  8. Carefully reseat the tire onto the rim, ensuring the tube is not pinched.
  9. Inflate the tire to the recommended pressure for your equipment (check manufacturer specifications).
  10. Reinstall the wheel.

Care: Keep the valve cap on when not inflating to prevent dirt and debris from entering the valve. Regularly check tire pressure and inspect for signs of wear or damage. Store the tube in a cool, dry place if not in immediate use.
