Thoroughly Tested for Safety

This hub-and-drum assembly meets the requirements for certification by the Canadian Standards Association (CSA). The CSA creates standards, which when complied with ensure a safe and quality product. This assembly underwent extensive testing to measure stopping distances when braking. This assembly has also been tested by QAI for braking performance in a complete automotive setup and under real-world conditions to provide the most realistic scenario for the everyday driver.


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"

by:

Units fit well, drums are made in China, but I expected that given they are $100 less than the dexter units (who knows maybe dexter is made in China also). They did take a beating in delivery, one bearing was popped out (still in the bag) and all 4 rear grease seals popped out as well, but no damage to the actual assembly... I gave the 4 stars due to the China part..



by:

Sales rep all but guaranteed these were made in the USA by Dexter for etrailer, CHINA is cleverly hidden INSIDE the drum. They are not made in the USA, but CHINA doesn’t ALWAYS mean junk. Time will tell, but the last set of China drums were destroyed in one year. 2012 Ram factory controller set at 3.5 empty, 6.5 loaded around 9k. 20’ enclosed car trailer.

The reason that it gets confusing, is because some of the parts are manufactured in China, while they are assembled here in the USA.

Exactly as described. Easy to install!

these hubs have been great



by:

The three wheel hubs delivered were the wrong ones. I ordered 6 lug configuration and received 5 lug and they were delivered a day later than the confirmation email stated. Frustrated because I was on a deadline to get my trailer back on the road and will now have to make an extra trip to where I have the trailer stored to complete the repairs. The call agent was quick to place a replacement order but they still took a week to arrive.



by:

I called and Kurt helped me through my order to ascertain the correct parts for our trailer. the order arrived in a very timely manner, and the parts were very well packed. It took no time to fit the brake set as everything fitted well, brakes are great.
I am very satisfied, thamk you



by:

So far so good! Very easy to install. I put them on my 2013 ice castle and have driven roughly 800 miles on them so far and everything is working great.



by:

This is a great product. I purchased the entire hub assembly for only a few dollars more than the parts needed to repair my old hub . Great pricing! The product arrived as scheduled. It fit perfectly. I will buy from them again. I recommend them to anyone looking for high quality parts at a good price.



by:

Works great, perfect fit and easy replacement. Thanks. Dan



by:

The prepacked wheel bearings saved a lot of time and made the job easy.

by:

The description didn't say it came with ezlube grease caps. I bought them separately but turns out they were included. Now i get to return them.



by:

Exactly what I needed and easy install.



by:

Fit like a glove.



by:

I just received the two boxes of drums that I'm going to use to put brake on both axles. The UPS delivery driver said that one of the boxes was beat up and there may have been parts lost. It was packed with plastic cap over the outside bearing that prevented the bearing from coming out. GOOD job! Now if you can get away from "made in china" I'd be a lot happier. Additional cost of made in AMERICA for be worth it.



by:

Packaging is horrible , one came in a completely different box all taped up , and another poking through the box that is scratched and dinged up

the hub and bearing kits are still working fine, serviced and bearings still look new, thanks



by:

Hub and drum are great. Would have given 5 stars, but poor packaging and rough shipping led to the hub penetrating the box and the dust cover was lost through the hole.

Oh no! I will have Customer Service reach out to you to have the dust cap sent out right away.

I have received 4 hubs and they were delivered Undamaged. I’ve installed 3 thus far. They fit perfectly. As soon as I get the forth one installed I’ll take the trailer out and test them. So far so good.

Good. Went on a trip last year after installing the the hubs. 24000 miles and 5 months. They performed great.



by:

This is a Spare Hub for my Car/Equipment trailer .When not if you have a bearing Failure just change the Hub, no need to try to beat gaulded bearing Races out on the side of the Road !! But if its a easy Bearing Change they are included with this Kit .



by:

It replaced the old drum and hub, electric brake assemblies, it was an exact fit. The outer bearing race was loose in the old hub drum assembly, that was the reason of my repair endeavor. I am very happy with the service I received from Etrailer.com... Thanks George J. for your effort in getting the replacement parts to me. I am considering doing right side of my axle for the sake of uniformity, as am writing this review!



by:

Trailer hub and drum assemblies purchased to replace original units on a 2002 tandem wheel boat trailer. The assemblies were quality units that fit perfectly, installation was easy.



by:

Very well made. Good fit and installed easily. Comes with new grease caps and lug nuts. Used these in conjunction with new brake assemblies. No problems and performs well. Would recommend these to anyone.



by:

Nothing fancy, but exactly what I needed to replace the trailer hubs on the trailer. Have pulled the trailer close to a 1,000 miles and no problems. Thanks etrailer for the great products.



by:

Haven't put them on yet but everything matched up except the rear bearing and seal. I have an older trailer and the axels are different the old bearing still fit just fine in the hub. The delivery time was very impressive. When I get the trailer done I'll post some picks.



by:

I am very pleased with the Loaded backing plates, drums, bearings and tandem axle hanger kit. All appear to be better quality than what came on the trailer originally

  • Replacement Brake Assemblies for Hubs Marked BD-655-17
    Hey Ronald, based on the part number you mentioned the correct brake assemblies would be the etrailer brake assemblies part # AKEBRK-7-SA which are a self adjusting set that are the correct capacity for the hub/drums that you have.

  • Replacement for 4,400 lb Axle on 2018 Jayco White Hawk
    What you have is an 86" long axle with a 4,400 lb capacity. Since 4,400 lb axles are no longer being produced, you will need an axle with a higher capacity for a replacement. I recommend the Trailer Axle Beam with Easy Grease Spindles # e45GR. This axle is 86-1/2" long so it will stick out an additional 1/4" on each side but that won't be a problem. The spring seat measurement is also different. This means you will need to cut off the spring seats and weld on # TRSS300 to match your current...

  • Can 5-Spoke Utility Hub Be Replaced with Hub with Standard Bolt Pattern
    We have some hubs that can replace the 5-Spoke utility-style you're currently using, but they use a 6 lug pattern which actually works out because you'll need to replace your wheels for your tires anyways. To increase your tire size I recommend a 235/80-16 tire (which reduces your clearance by 2" altogether) so for a complete set of parts you'll need the following: - Trailer Idler Hub Assembly # AKIHUB-655-6-K - Trailer Hub and Drum Assembly # AKHD-655-6-K - 10-10 Grease or Oil Double-Lip...

  • How to Determine Hub and Drum Assembly & Brakes With 6 on 5-1/2 Bolt Pattern for 10,000 lb Trailer
    Thanks for that info, and based on that I can narrow down the options for you considerably, but you will need to do a bit of measuring in order to make sure you get the right hub and drum assembly. Based on having Dexter axles and a 10,000 lb GVWR trailer it is likely you have 5,200 lb axles but also possible you have 6,000 lb axles. This means you will need to know what bearings your current hub has. You will need to take apart your current hub assembly and look at the bearings themselves;...

    In order to replace the hubs/drums on a old mobile home trailer with a 25580 inner and LM67048 outer bearing you can use the Dexter Trailer Hub and Drum Assembly part # 8-201-5UC3 which has a 10-10 grease seal which is 2.125" or the Trailer Hub and Drum Assembly part # AKHD-655-6-K which has a GS2250DL grease seal which is 2.25".

The 15123 bearing will fit on your spindle, but it will be too large for the hub and race. I have a few recommendations for you. If you have trailer brakes, I recommend the etrailer Trailer Hub and Drum Assembly 5,200 lbs. and 6,000 lbs. Axles # AKHD-655-6-K. This hub and drum will work with electric or hydraulic brakes.

  • Replacement Hub/Drum for AL-KO 363239
    I was able to cross reference AL-KO 363239 and based on this you will need to use the Trailer Hub and Drum Assembly part # AKHD-655-6-K. That said, this comes with a 2.25" grease seal and you need a 2.125" grease seal so in addition to the hub/drum you also need the Grease Seal part # GS-2125DL. The correct braking assemblies are then going to be Electric Trailer Brake Kit part # AKEBRK-6.

    The only difference between the # AKHD-655-6-K and the # AKHD-655-6-EZ-K is the cap that the hub uses. One is a solid cap and the other has a rubber plug that can come off for access to EZ lube fittings. Since you have caps already you could use either hub part number.

As far as the hubs, it is not quite so cut and dry. The 5,200 lb axles generally use a # 25580 inner bearing and a # 15123 outer bearing. Given that your axle is almost 20 years old, it may not...

  • How to Determine if Trailer Hub part # AKHD-655-6-K will Fit Trailer Axle
    Whether or not the Trailer Hub part # AKHD-655-6-K is going to fit your 10k trailer is going to depend on what axles your trailer has. Pull your hubs off that you currently have and measure the spindle where the bearings ride. If the dimensions are 1.25 inches and 1.75 inches and the grease seal diameter on it is 2.25 inches this hub will fit.

    The picture you sent is off a brake assembly. It looks to be a 12 inch assembly, probably a 12 x 2 inch. Hub # AKHD-655-6-K does accept 12 x 2 inch brakes. But to determine if the hub fits the spindle I would need to know the inner and outer bearing numbers stamped into the sides of the bearings. Or I would need to know the spindle measurements, see picture explaining the measurements. These measurements have to be as accurate as possible so I recommend using calipers such as # PTW80157.

    I went out to our warehouse and measured the Trailer Hub and Drum Assembly part # AKHD-655-6-K for you. The hub bore is 3.409" therefore that would be the minimum hub bore on your trailer wheels. Almost all of the trailer wheels we offer with a 6 on 5-1/2" lug pattern have a hub pilot hole sufficient for this. For example, the Dexstar Steel Mini Mod Trailer Wheel part # AM20746 has a 4.27" hub pilot hole.
