Round trailer axle beam measures 95" from hub face to hub face (when hubs - sold separately - are mounted) and 79-1/4" from spring center to spring center. E-Z Lube spindles make it easy to lubricate bearings (sold separately).

Specs:
There are multiple ways to measure the length of an axle beam, but the hub-face-to-hub-face and spring-center-to-spring-center lengths are the most accurate. Hub face (A) refers to the length of the axle measured from the base of one wheel stud to the base of the wheel stud on the opposite side of the axle (when hubs are mounted on the beam).
The spring center (B) is the approximate width of your trailer. It is measured from the center of the spring seat on one side of the axle to the center of the seat on the other. This axle beam comes with the spring seats welded on.
If you are replacing your trailer's axle, you should be able to figure out which type you need by determining your trailer's capacity, the bolt pattern of your wheels, the brake type and the aforementioned lengths.
The E-Z Lube spindles on this axle are meant to work with E-Z Lube-compatible hubs to make lubricating your bearings quick and easy. Each E-Z Lube spindle has a zerk fitting on the end. And every E-Z Lube hub comes with a grease cap that has an easy-to-remove rubber plug. Just pop out the plug on the cap to access the zerk on the spindle. When you inject grease into the zerk with a grease gun, the grease will flow to both the inner and outer bearings of the hub, lubricating the bearings and forcing out old, ineffective grease. Once you see new grease beginning to be pushed out, you know that your bearings are fully lubricated. This means that you can lubricate the bearings without the mess of taking apart the entire assembly.
Dexters are made of high-strength steel and come with spindles and spring seats welded on. The spring seats are attached to the underside of the axle so that the leaf springs (sold separately) can mount beneath the axle. This axle is also built with drop spindles, which will lower the ride height of your trailer to allow for easier loading and unloading.
Each axle is manufactured to create a certain camber angle. This ensures that the angle of the wheels is correct for your towing needs. Because the primary concern when towing is maintaining controlled, in-line movement, each axle is made so that your trailer's tires will run along the pavement evenly, with contact across the width of the tread. The result is excellent straight-line acceleration for steady, in-line tracking. You might notice the bend near the center of the axle; this is what ensures the proper camber angle. Having the center ride a bit higher and the sides of the axle bent lower allows the axle to give just enough to compensate for the load.

Round trailer axle beam measures 95" from hub face to hub face (when hubs - sold separately - are mounted) and 79-1/4" from spring center to spring center. E-Z Lube spindles make it easy to lubricate bearings (sold separately).etrailer decided to ship this 140lbs axle via US Mail. Scheduled delivery was in 5 days from date of order. Immediately after getting the USPS tracking I called and was on hold forever. I was told it was new people in shipping and my axle would arrive on time. A month later and numerous calls later, still no axle, my mail man said " no way would he would be delivering anything that size". I was then told I would get it refunded since it was lost in the mail. A month later, and several calls saying the refund was "processes" still no refund. Then I was told I'd have to ship it back before getting a refund. But I still never received it. 2 months later an un marked car delivered it and finally etrailer sent a UPS pickup and got refunded. 3 months of different stories everytime I called. Be aware, they must have a lot of newbies at etrailer.
It is what was listed. Fits perfectly. Best place to get trailer parts quick and easy.
They made it happen! They knew exactly which axle I needed and had it shipped right away. Thanks for making this easy!
Axles where great customer service was also great helping make sure I got the correct axle for my hubs and bearings. Only thing that would be nice is if they had an option to ship the spring pad mounts loose because I had to cut them off and re-weld them in the correct location for my trailer.
Excellent product
Great communication and turn around from order submission to receiving the product was fast!
Said that axle was in stock and would be delivered on may 27th well got a notice that they were shipping it out on the 28th. Kinda of hard to to get it before it shipped right Well now I was told it was shipped on May 30th which was Memorial Day hard to believe but it was delivered on jun 1rst and was what I ordered and I'm happy with it.Just wish they were more up front with there shipping.

Service was beyond exceptional!!!!
axle beam arrived in specified time. item arrived with no damage (thanks for the extra shipping packing). the free shipping was a definite bonus. over all a good experience.
The axle came in 2 days. The axle was exactly the same as my old one. I put it in this afternoon and it’s ready to use for tomorrow. No complaints whatsoever! Actually I never usually review anything but this experience was exceptional.
The product looks awsome!!
Great price and fast shipping
Great service, super fast delivery!!
Worked as planned = a good fit. My application required me to weld new mounts to the opposite side of the axle - my application was over sprung and had a 68.5" mounting measurement.
I was pressed for time to deliver a car and this axle was advertised to be delivered on Tuesday. Then, tracking changed delivery to Wednesday. Still, it was timely enough, barely. The axle looked perfect except, there weren’t any spring perches! The axle was ordered with perches. I spoke with a delightful young lady, if that is not woke I don’t care. She remedied the situation, HOPEFULLY.
The axles were missing studs that fell out during shipping. Also, no nuts were included for mounting the brakes.
It has been a year. The axle has preformed flawlessly. 5-star because it exactly matched the existing axle for bearing seal part and brake assembly which were moved from the existing lippert 5200# axle to this one. This 6000# axle provides a bit of margin for weight over the existing.
Awesome results. I purchased with new leaf springs and hardware. Very solid. I imagine that most of you struggling failed to research and measure properly. Take responsibility and own your results.
I inherited an aluminum trailer that ended up needing a complete overhaul and etrailer was the best resource I could have found. After researching extensively to find out what I needed and watching their videos on how to do it I ended up ordering an EZ-lube axle, galvanized hubs, springs and a hanger kit (in other words everything from the frame down).
Everything shipped quickly and arrived in great shape. All the parts worked perfectly and I couldn't be happier!
Axle arrived in perfect condition, was also an exact fit for my Top Hat Trailer.
Your staff was of great help finding my right axle.
I would recommend etrailer to everyone.
After a rust related axle failure, my equipment trailer was down. (If you roll in the rust belt, check your axles near where the brake wire goes through)
After checking my local source, I was told there was a long lead time for new axles due to the pandemic.
I was so happy to find etrailer. They had the exact axles I needed. After I pulled the axles I realized I also needed hardware and u-bolts.
Everything arrived ahead of schedule, allowing me to get back up and running quickly.
Thank you etrailer. You are a valuable resource.
