Corrosion Resistance for Marine Use

This trailer hub assembly has a zinc coating that resists corrosion, making it ideal for use on your boat or snowmobile trailer. All GAL-DEX hubs undergo a test in which they are sprayed with a 5-percent salt solution to determine corrosion resistance over time. These products are able to withstand 500 hours of constant exposure to the saltwater mist. This 500-hour salt spray rating indicates that a product is not only durable enough to last in freshwater environments, but it can also be used on trailers that come into contact with saltwater.


E-Z Lube-Compatible Hub for Simple Lubrication

The grease cap on this hub is specially designed to work with your Dexter E-Z Lube axle to make lubricating bearings quick and easy. Just remove the plug on the grease cap, attach a grease gun to the zerk fitting on the end of the spindle, and inject the grease. It will flow easily to both inner and outer bearings. Not only does this make lubricating the bearings easy, but it also helps to prevent corrosion of the hub. This is because you can lubricate the bearings without the mess of taking apart the entire assembly.


Determining the Bolt Pattern

The first number in the bolt pattern is the number of bolt holes. The second number denotes the diameter, in inches, of the circle on which the bolt holes sit.


Bolt Pattern - Even

On wheels with an even number of bolt holes, measure from the center of one bolt hole to the center of the hole directly across from it. (Example: "8 on 6-1/2" means 8 bolt holes with 6-1/2" from the center of one hole to the center of another on the opposite side.)


Bolt Pattern - Odd

To determine the bolt-circle diameter on wheels with an odd number of bolt holes, measure from the center of any bolt hole to the point halfway between the two bolt holes directly across from the first. (Example: "5 on 4-1/2" means 5 bolt holes with 4-1/2" measured to a point halfway between the opposite bolt holes.)


Bolt Pattern Side

Measuring the distance (D) from the center of one bolt hole on the wheel to the center of a bolt hole right next to it can also help to determine the bolt pattern.

  • If D = 2-5/8", then the bolt pattern is 5 on 4-1/2"
  • If D = 2-3/4", then the bolt pattern is 5 on 4-3/4"
  • If D = 3", then the bolt pattern is 5 on 5"
  • If D = 3-1/4", then the bolt pattern is 5 on 5-1/2"

  • Replacement Spindle And Hub For 6,000 lb Axle on Boat Trailer
    The information was helpful, thank you, and spindles are replaceable, they just need to be welded on by a qualified professional. In regards to the hub, there are a couple of options, depending on your current hub's bolt pattern. Basically, just if your current wheels fit hubs with 6 lugs or 8 lugs. So for a replacement spindle and accompanying hub for a 6,000 lb axle, here is what you will need: - #42 E-Z Lube Spindle with Flange for 5.2K to 7K Trailer Axles # TRU37FR - 6 on 5-1/2"...

  • Grease Leaking from E-Z Lube Spindle and Hub
    There are a couple things that may be causing an E-Z Lube spindle to leak grease. There could be a bit too much grease # L11390 and the excess is coming out, or the grease cap or grease seal of a hub like # 8-231-50UC1-EZ is not fitting properly or possibly damaged, causing the grease to leak out. It may also be the grease zerk is a bit loose but unless it's an excess of grease it's not something to be overly concerned about. You can check the zerk for that, but otherwise just keep an...
