Steel trailer rim KENDA 6Ix10"H2 5x112 ET:-4
The KENDA 6Ix10"H2 steel trailer rim is a strong and solid rim, ideal for flatbed trucks, heavy trailers such as trailers for transporting construction materials, larger cargo loads, heavy machinery, as well as campers. Its design provides a load capacity of 750 kg , making it suitable for applications where stability and safety are a priority. The rim with a width of 6 inches, a diameter of 10 inches, a bolt pattern of 5x112 and an offset of ET: -4 provides confident and reliable handling even in more difficult road conditions, being an ideal choice for demanding users of heavy trailers. The 5x112 pattern means that the rim has 5 mounting holes, which are arranged on a circle with a diameter of 112 mm. The bolt pattern is a key parameter when selecting a rim to ensure that it fits properly to the vehicle's hub.
Rim offset (ET) is a parameter defining the distance between the rim's mounting surface and its axis of symmetry, expressed in millimeters. The ET value determines how deep the rim is embedded in the wheel arch. With a positive ET, the rim is deeper in the wheel arch, while with a negative ET it protrudes more outward. A correctly selected offset is crucial for vehicle handling stability, avoiding friction on suspension elements and ensuring the car's appropriate appearance.
The center bore of the rim is the hole located in the very center of the rim that fits onto the vehicle's hub. Its diameter must match the hub diameter so that the rim is properly seated and centered on the vehicle. The center bore plays a key role in transferring loads from the rim to the hub, which affects driving stability and safety. If the center bore is too large, centering rings are used to ensure a proper fit.
The rim flange profile refers to the shape and design of the rim edge that contacts the tire. The "I" flange has a specific shape and dimensions that provide a stable tire seat on the rim, especially in applications where maintaining the tire in place under heavy loads is critical. The "I" profile is less common than the "J" profile, but is used in specific cases where greater precision in tire mounting or other specialized vehicle handling requirements are required.
The rim cross-section profile refers to the shape of the inner part of the rim, which includes both the flange and the surface on which the tire rests. This profile is crucial for proper tire seating, mounting, and overall fit to the vehicle hub. The H2 rim cross-section profile is a double hump rim. This profile provides even greater protection against the tire slipping off the rim. This is especially important for sports, off-road vehicles, or those that are subject to higher lateral loads.
