Bateson 35-16
Tyre pressures and wheel nut / bolt torque
Tyre specification
Fitment details
- The 35-16 model page lists 195/50 x 13 tyres.
- This pressure applies specifically to the 195/50R13C commercial tyre listed in Bateson's pressure table: check the C marking and the tyre load rating before use.
- The model specification does not identify the fitted wheel fixing.
- Use the matching Bateson setting only after confirming the thread and whether it is a bolt or nut: M12 x 1.5 bolt 90 Nm; M12 x 1.5 nut 100 Nm; M16 x 1.5 nut 195 Nm.
- These are fixing types, not alloy-versus-steel categories.
Choose the setting for the confirmed wheel fixing.
Socket size alone does not identify the thread.
Alloy wheels are not covered by these settings.
Tyre pressure placard
Bateson 35-16 trailer visual reference
| Tyre size | kPa | PSI | bar |
|---|---|---|---|
| 195/50R13C | 650 | 94 | 6.5 |
Please ensure the maximum pressure marked on your tyre sidewall is equal to or higher than the pressure listed here.
A tyre of the same size with a lower pressure rating may have been fitted by mistake.
Never exceed the maximum pressure marked on the tyre.
Is your tyre load rating high enough?
Find the load index beside the tyre size. For example, 104 = 900 kg per tyre. For normal trailer wheels, use the first number in 104/102N. The second is for tyres mounted side by side on one hub, not a trailer with two axles. N is the speed symbol.
Open the tyre load rating conversion chart →
Capacity per tyre × number of road tyres = combined tyre capacity. Do not count the spare or jockey wheel.
Example: four tyres rated 104 give 900 × 4 = 3,600 kg, which exceeds a 3,500 kg trailer maximum gross weight by 100 kg. This is a total-capacity comparison only.
Check your tyre capacity
Enter all three values to compare capacity.
Check every axle too: its tyres must support its plated maximum axle weight, and no individual tyre may be overloaded. This calculator assumes all tyres have the same load index and are mounted singly. It does not confirm fitment or set tyre pressure. Keep the trailer manufacturer’s required load and speed ratings, use the specified cold pressure and check the actual loaded axle weights.
Cold tyre pressure
94 PSI / 6.5 bar / 650 kPa
A separate unloaded or fully laden pressure has not been confirmed for this entry.
Wheel nut / bolt torque
Use the setting only for the wheel and fixing specification described above.
Frequently asked questions
What is the tyre pressure for the Bateson 35-16 transporter trailer with 195/50R13C tyres?
The tyre pressure for the Bateson 35-16 transporter trailer with 195/50R13C tyres is 94 PSI (6.5 bar / 650 kPa), measured cold. This applies to the commercial tyre marked C. Check the fitted tyre size and load rating against the specification above.
What is the wheel nut or bolt torque for the Bateson 35-16 transporter trailer?
The wheel nut or bolt torque for the Bateson 35-16 transporter trailer depends on the fitted fixing. M12 bolt · 19 mm: 90 Nm; M12 nut · 19 mm: 100 Nm; M16 nut · 24 mm: 195 Nm. Identify whether the fixing is a bolt or nut and confirm its thread. Socket size alone does not identify the fixing.
