Trailer Tyre Pressure??

[fermerboy]

Ive a 14ton AS Marston trailer on 550/45/22.5 BKT floatation tyres, think these are crossplys.

Whats the TFF wisdom on what sort of pressure should these be run at??

Mix of work but no long fast running.

TIA.

Are they these?

14t will be 18t? loaded? 3t on the hitch so 3.75t per tyre.
So you can run at 3bar (the minimum) 50kph. 3 bar is 43psi

Got Alliance version of those on 12t trailer.
Have always ran them at 45psi because that’s what the tyre fitter that supplied them to replace super singles put in them.

Would be interested to find out the correct answer too!

Thats the ones, radials would be better but thats what its got.

Thanks for that link.

I took a guess at 45psi so not far out, just wondered what others were running at.
Thanks
