Video Transcript for Review of Taskmaster Trailer Tires and Wheels - Aluminum Wheel Only - TA64XR

Hello, everybody. This is Jeff at etrailer.com. Today, we're gonna take a look at the 14 inch by 5 1/2 inch Trinity Series black machined aluminum trailer wheel. Now, this is an aluminum wheel. It's very durable, lightweight, and rustproof. We mentioned it is the Trinity Series, which is a five-fork design in the black color, has the machined silver accents right here on the edge of the spokes and even on the outer lip to provide a nice, bold, sleek look.

The glossy black enamel coating resists corrosion. If you notice, it does come with the center cap. And what's nice with this center cap, if you look close, you'll see it has the outer or the plug here in the middle, and what that does is that'll pop off. And what that allows is when this is installed, if you happen to have E-Z Lube axles on your trailer, which are the ones that have these grease zerk fitting on the spindle that allows you to grease the bearings without having to take off the wheels and tires to access it, all you have to do is pop off that center cap or that center lug, center plug here, and that'll get you gain access to grease the zerk fittings without having to take off your whole wheels and tires. Also, if you notice right down here, the valve stem is included, it's pre-installed into the wheel.

Now, this wheel does meet the SAE J1204 standards. A few measurements on this, it's 14 inch diameter, and that's always measured inside to inside. So just to show you, if we take our tape measure, and if we go straight across, there's your 14 inch diameter. The width, same way, will be measured inside to inside, so bead seat to bead seat, 5 1/2 inches. Now, the bolt pattern on this wheel is a five on 4 1/2 inch bolt pattern.

And if you want to measure the bolt pattern on a wheel like this, that's an odd number of lugs, five, what you'll do is just pick any hole, let's say this one, and then you'll measure across to either this hole or this hole. But when you measure, it's from the center of the starting hole to the furthest edge of whichever hole you measure to. So on this one, if we measure it to be 4 1/2 inches, the wheel lug size it uses is a 1/2 inch by 20, pilot hole diameter, which is the large hole here that your center cap goes through, the diameter on this pilot hole is 3.19 inches, and the weight capacity on this wheel is 2,200 pounds. But that should do it for a look at the Taskmaster 14 inch by 5 1/2 inch Trinity Series black machined aluminum trailer wheel.
