Truck battery Tudor TF1853 PRO (Hdx) 185Ah 1,150A 12V
With 185 Ah and 1,150 A of cold cranking current (EN), the Tudor TF1853 from the PRO (Hdx) range is built for professional use in trucks, buses, tractors and heavy machinery. It measures 513 × 223 × 223 mm and the positive terminal on the left, the format sought by anyone replacing a 185 Ah battery in trucks.
- Heavy Duty construction for intensive professional use.
- Conventional lead-acid: the most proven and economical technology.
- Designed for 24 V installations with two batteries in series.
- Powerful cold cranking for large-displacement diesel engines.
What the Tudor TF1853 is for
The Tudor TF1853 is designed for trucks, buses, tractors and heavy machinery. In 24 V installations with two batteries in series, replace both at the same time to avoid imbalance. Check that it matches your current battery in dimensions, terminals and hold-down: this reference has a weight of 43.90 kg.
The Tudor TF1853: PRO (Hdx) range and conventional lead-acid technology
The TF1853 is part of the Tudor PRO (Hdx) range. Choosing the right reference within the series comes down to capacity, dimensions and terminals: technology and quality are common to the whole family.
Conventional lead-acid is the benchmark against which other technologies are compared: good cranking current, great tolerance to alternator charging and the best price per amp-hour.
Will it fit your current battery tray?
The Tudor TF1853 is made in the 513 × 223 × 223 mm format and weighs 43.90 kg. The positive terminal on the left decides which side the cables end up on: it is the detail that causes most buying mistakes, so check it before ordering. For a direct replacement, the current battery tray must accept these dimensions and the same terminal layout; otherwise adapters will be needed or the hold-down will change.
What Tudor does differently
Tudor has made batteries in Spain for more than a century and remains one of the brands most trusted by Spanish workshops for reliability and value. We guarantee that every Tudor arrives new, charged and with the manufacturer's full warranty.
How to make it last longer
In 24 V installations, check periodically that both batteries show the same voltage; an imbalance means one is failing. Keep the terminals clean and tight and the battery firmly secured against chassis vibration.
Manufacturer's warranty
The Tudor TF1853 comes with the manufacturer's official warranty against manufacturing defects. An important note for commercial vehicles: most trucks use two batteries connected in series (24 V installation). If you replace only one, the new battery works alongside the old one, which has already lost capacity; that imbalance shortens its life and the manufacturer may treat it as misuse. Always replace both at the same time.
Delivery times and returns
Order before 6:00 pm with stock available and it leaves today: mainland Spain and Portugal receive it in 24-48 working hours, the islands and the rest of the EU in 3 to 5 days. You have 14 days to return it if it has not been installed, with free collection on the mainland, and shipment tracking by email.

Frequently asked questions
Why does my lorry have two batteries?
Most lorries, buses and tractors run on 24 V with two 12 V batteries connected in series. Always replace both at the same time and with the same model: if one is new and the other old, they become unbalanced and both last less.
How long does the Tudor TF1853 battery last?
There is no exact figure: for a battery such as the Tudor TF1853 (conventional), a reasonable guide is 4 to 6 years in normal lorry use. Many factors play a part: how it is used (lots of short trips, for example), temperature (cold makes every start harder and intense heat evaporates the electrolyte), the condition of the alternator and charging system, power drawn with the engine off and maintenance, as well as the type of truck and whether it has Start-Stop.
What are the dimensions of the Tudor TF1853 battery?
Check the room available in your truck, because a single millimetre too much can stop the clamp from closing. Its dimensions are 513×223×223 mm, also written 513x223x223 mm; the height already includes the terminals.
On which side is the positive of the TF1853 model?
It has the positive on the left (polarity). Put it in front of you, terminals towards you: the post with the red ring and the + sign is the positive. A change of polarity from the original means longer cables or a reconfigured system and can cause a short circuit: check it before ordering.
Is the TF1853 valid for my vehicle?
The compatibility list for the TF1853 runs to 141 verified vehicle versions. For your own vehicle: type your number plate into the finder (DGT/DVLA/KBA identify model and engine), check the "Compatible vehicles" tab below, listing vehicles verified by our technical team, or message us on WhatsApp with make, model, engine and year; we reply during business hours (Mon–Fri 10:00–13:30 and 16:30–18:00 (Spanish time, CET)). Always cross-check with what the truck manufacturer states in the owner's handbook.
Which batteries are equivalent to the Tudor TF1853?
To replace the Tudor TF1853 without modifications, the other battery must be identical in size, polarity, Ah and CCA. The "Equivalents" section of this page gathers the recommended options with equivalent performance; remember that in Start-Stop trucks an EFB should not be replaced with a conventional battery.
