E-Z Lube and Easy Grease-Compatible Hub for Simple Lubrication
The grease cap on this hub is specially designed to work with your Dexter E-Z Lube or etrailer Easy Grease 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.
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.
- 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"

Have not mounted on trailer yet, but test fitted. Exact fit part for 3500 lbs Road King boat trailer. All parts included as described on etrailer's website. One of the benefits from ordering with etrailer are the "how to" videos and their "ask an expert" forum.

Ordered the hub and recipe it very quickly. They provided a video for reference on installation. It was very well made and easy to install. Very pleased with it, but the best part was the customer service. The old hub and bearings were so destroyed that I couldn’t get any numbers off of it. The lady from etrailer stayed on the phone and helped me research it until we found the right hub and bearings!!! In the end it was exactly what I needed and as happy as I am with the product, I’m more happy about the friendly and knowledgeable customer service they provided!!! Highly recommend the company and the products they sell!!!!

Good quality part. Fit my pontoon boat trailer just right. No problems.
by: Michael 08/11/2022
We love these hubs. We’ve installed many of these and have had great results. We also like the real hot dipped galvanized finish for our salt/ brackish environment. They hold up far better than painted or “galv coated” products. The price is consistently good and they get to us quickly. Also love that free shipping over $100.
by: Mark09/18/2021
Would have given 5 stars but... product damaged due to inadequate packing the bubble wrap bag is not enough to protect the somewhat fragile grease covers from the weight of the two hubs. and one arrived too damaged for me to use. Also the product a bit more expensive than what can be found for an apparently similar product from other sites.But I went with etrailer because I have had great past experiences.

Sorry to hear about the damage. Customer Service will be reaching out to you. We also have a lowest price pledge that you can read through and possibly get a better deal:

Couldn't be more satisfied! I change from 5 on 5 to 5 on 4.5. I've been rolling on these hubs about 2500 miles. Every time I jack up the trailer I spin the tire, smooth as ever. Thankx LSD
Comments
1 year - 35k miles Im still very happy with the set of idler and brake hubs, bearings are still rolling smooth. I only use 1 type of grease Lucas RedNTacky2, about every 1k miles pull the rubber plug, 1/2 pump of grease not too much or youll blow the seal! Most common problem people have! Ill be buying another set for the trailer Im building. Keep making people happy, Thankx LSD

FIRST CLASS AND TIMELY SUPPORT! I ordered a hub for my boat trailer on a Saturday. After placing the order I received an email from George on the same day letting me know it was backordered but there was a similar one in stock available to ship right away. As it's the end of boating season in the Northeast that was extremely valuable info. I let him know I'd like to change. Then Amy picked up the change order and processed everything. Got the hub 3 days later, fixed the trailer and pulled the boat. Oh yeah, the video instruction was awesome. Love doing business with eTrailer.com!

- Can You Switch From Hubs/Drums to Idler Hubs On a Boat Trailer with 3,500 Lb AxleIt is certainly possible to switch from hubs/drums to idler hubs on a trailer axle. For a boat trailer with 3,500 lb axle(s), the Trailer Idler Hub Assembly part # AKIHUB-545-35-G-K or part # AKIHUB-545-35-G-EZ-K for EZ-Lube would be just what you need. There would be no need for a new spindle either.
view full answer... - Recommended Galvanized Trailer Idler Hub for Trailer with 3,500 Lb AxleYes, we do have exactly what you're looking for in the Trailer Idler Hub Assembly for 3,500-lb Axles part # AKIHUB-545-35-G-K for standard or part # AKIHUB-545-35-G-EZ-K for easy grease which both have a galvanized finish. Furthermore, the kit comes with new wheel nuts as well so you'll have pretty much a new setup.

Based on your bearing numbers, you definitely have a 3.5k axle with a 5 on 4-1/2 lug pattern. For replacement hubs, I recommend the Easy Grease Trailer Hub/Drum Assembly for 3.5K Axles - 10" Diameter - 5 on 4-1/2 - Galvanized # AKHD-545-35-G-EZ-K (if you have E-Z Lube or Easy Grease spindles) or the Trailer Hub and Drum Assembly - 3,500-lb Axles - 10" Diameter - 5 on 4-1/2 - Galvanized # AKHD-545-35-G-EZ-K (if you have standard spindles).

view full answer... - Correct Replacement for TDE 46210 Trailer HubThere typically aren't any part numbers stamped onto the trailer spindle that can be used for identification. There are however numbers stamped onto the hub most times which can be used for identification. The TDE46210 tells me you have a 3,500 lb axle so you can use the Trailer Idler Hub Assembly part # AKIHUB-545-35-G-EZ-K for galvanized or part # AKIHUB-545-35-K for standard.
view full answer... - What Spindle Dimensions Does Trailer Hub AKIHUB-545-35-G-EZ-K FitYour spindle dimensions match very closely to what we have hubs for but the inner bearing dimension would need to be 1.380 and not 1.480 inches. The outer bearing dimension needs to be 1.06 and the seal dimension 1.73 inch. If that is the case for your spindle the hub part # AKIHUB-545-35-G-EZ-K that you referenced would be a confirmed fit.

This hub has a 5 on 4-1/2" lug pattern. I have attached a help article to help you determine if this pattern will work for you. This hub also uses a L68149 (1.378" inner diameter) inner bearing and a L44649 (1.063" inner diameter) outer bearing. You will need to disassemble your existing hubs or measure the inner and outer bearing...

view full answer... - Diameter and Thread Pitch of Wheel Stud on AxleTek AKIHUB-545-35-G-EZ-K Trailer Idler HubThe AxleTek # AKIHUB-545-35-G-EZ-K hub you'd looked at uses 1/2 inch-20 wheel studs. 1/2 inch diameter, 20 threads per inch. The lug nuts are included with the hub, as are the bearings, races, grease seal and the EZ Lube grease cap. We don't carry TDE parts, but from my research, I've found that the # AKIHUB-545-35-G-EZ-K is a direct replacement for their 46210 hub. If you click the provided links, you can see an install and a product description video.

Axles Work With Slip on RotorsThe studs on the Trailer Idler Hub Assembly for 3,500-lb E-Z Lube Axles part # AKIHUB-545-35-G-EZ-K are 1-5/16" in length.

Then, you'll look at the existing hubs to see what bolt pattern they have. The most common is a 3,500 lb hub with a 5 on 4-1/2" bolt pattern like the Easy Grease Trailer Idler Hub Assembly part # AKIHUB-545-35-G-EZ-K for example. I have attached a full list of other options below.
