Marine-grade hub is designed for use on trailer idler axles. Fits 2,000-lb axles with BT8 spindles. Inner bearing (L44643) and race, outer bearing (L44643) and race, grease seal, grease cap, and lug nuts included. Galvanized finish is rust resistant.
Features:
Specs:
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.
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.)
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.)
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.

Galvanized finish is rust resistant.The wheel bearings on my utility trailer gave out and the local Les Schwab wanted an arm and a leg to replace them. They also noted the tires were at the local tread limit and needed to be replaced. So I went searching for lower cost alternatives.
I found etrailer.com on a google search and was impressed by their selection, low pricing and expert help on their website. I ended up ordering two Kenda 5.30-12 Bias Trailer Tire with 12" Galvanized Wheel - 5 on 4-1/2 - Load Range C and two Trailer Idler Hub Assembly for 2,000-lb Axles - 5 on 4-1/2 - Galvanized from etrailer, and also a set of Reese Towpower 74177 Wheel Bearing Protectors from Amazon. My total cost was LESS THAN the price Les Swhwab quoted me for bearing replacements for the two wheels.
They are all on my trailer and and look great. I am really impressed by the quality of parts from etrailer and also their great pricing. Give them a try!
i ordered 2 of these and unfortunately they were sent with 2 different bearings instead of just two L44643 there was a 44649 if i remember the number correct.
called etrailer and was helped by Ashley. she was great! and got me the correct bearings in 2 days.
All items in the hub assembly arrived as described and in perfect condition. I would like to thank etrailer.com for their excellent on-line product documentation and advice. It gave me the confidence I needed that I would get the correct sizes when placing my order. Tell the boss, this is why I purchased from etrailer!
Would of been nice to have the bearing pre loaded and ready to just put on the trailer instead of me having to pack them.
Lauren in particular, and the entire customer service team at eTrailer are to be commended for their diligence and professionalism correcting the issue with the hubs I ordered. I highly recommend eTrailer for all your trailer needs.
First and foremost, etrailer is the sh*t. Not only do they have awesome customer service and helpful info, but they also have an awesome tracking system. And the best of all, the BEST prices and deals. I couldn't find hub deals this cheap anywhere and ontop of that the quality is awesome and their galvanized. Etrailer is the best.
I bought an older used boat and trailer. Checked the hun seals which had bee leainfg and saw some pitting on bearings. Bougth these new hubs and bearings. Everything fit perfectly and I we done in less than a hour. thankyou etrailer for coming through for me AGAIN!
This order unfortunately did not fit my application for a tandem jetski trailer.
Exactly as pictured! The only thing better than the product is the customer service! Shipped well on time and shipped in a quality box. etrailer is THE place to go for what you need. Very helpful and are now on my "go to" list!

I really havent had much use out of them yet but did get everything put on without any problems. Appreciate your concern.
Do NOT be in a rush to receive the correct product. I ordered this hub on 12-2-2021. Received the order on 12-7-2021, not too bad. However, the hub I received was a 4 bolt and not a 5 on 4 1/2. Called etrailer, sent them pics to prove and verify I received wrong item. I was told to send wrong one back with a prepaid shipping label. Today (12-17-2021) the correct one (I hope) arrived. Took so long to receive it that I used a different hub for now. Hopefully when I use this one it works properly. 15 days from order date to receive what appears to be the correct item. Not acceptable in opinion.
Excellent service & fast delivery! Finish my little project!
I purchased 2 galvanized wheels and 2 galvanized hubs. The box they shipped the items in was sealed well with staples and was robust, but the items weren't separate well at all. Whomever packaged the order placed a few pieces of packing paper inside. All the items were tossed around and dinged up. The threaded wheel lugs on the hub were dented and needed to be filed and thread chased. Other than that, the products seem nice, but time will tell.
Bought here before never had any problems. Quick shipping. Will buy here again.
I order a cast hub the first of the week , two days later a reply was sent, received your order waiting for a shipment to come from Dexter. E-trailer rep said they had a galvanized hub the correct size in stock they could sent right away if I preferred. I said to send the AKIHUB-545-2-G-1K hub. Received in three days even with Covid 19 problem we have today. Good communications, hub fit great.
Thanks E-trailer. Kenneth W.
Ordered two wheels with tires and two hubs. Everything arrived just as described. Can't beat the price, and free shipping too! Everything fit on the trailer perfectly and is ready to go.
Everything I needed to solve an issue I had with my old trailer axle in a timely manner.
Everything needed to replace a hub except the grease and a new cotter pin. High quality parts and everything went together flawlessly. I was looking at a Dexter hub, but they were out of stock. The friendly sales assistant on the phone suggested this one and the price was half as much to boot! Sold! Fast shipping, friendly service.
So, I've have a lot of lesson learnt in the rebuilding of my Boston Whaler trailer, most importantly, measure twice and order once, not the other way around! etrailer has been great at helping me get the correct parts for the project. Finally finished - Many thanks!
I little confusing which parts to buy but after a lot of research And your help I was fortunate to order the right parts first time. Moderately easy to assemble.
My order arrived in the time frame projected. I was kept well informed of the shipment status. The items are very good quality and well packaged. I will order from etrailer again.
I need to return those pieces since they turned out to be too small for the axle of my trailer, how do I send them?

Hey, Juan! I will make sure our customer service team reaches out to you,
Price is great. Haven’t mounted yet but all parts look fine. Does NOT come with cotter pin. Extremely fast delivery, 1 day early. So much easier to buy the entire hub than beat the races out of the old hubs and seat new ones.
Fit like a glove.
Great price,
Have not had any issues.
