Features to know about

Smooth, Straight Tracking Under Load: 60" Hub Face for Even Tire Contact

A trailer that wanders or wears tires unevenly usually needs better alignment through the axle. This 60" hub-face-to-hub-face axle is built with a slight center camber so your wheels run flat across the tread. It gives you steady, in-line tracking and even road-to-tread contact that keeps towing smooth and predictable, even with a full load.

Simple, Ready-to-Go Setup: Pre-Greased Idler Hubs and Bearings Installed

Skip the messy bearing packing and assembly guesswork. The cast-iron idler hubs on this axle come pre-greased and loaded with L44649 bearings, L44610 races, and 10-9 seals. With the 5 on 4-1/2" bolt pattern ready for 13"–15" wheels, it’s quick to mount up and roll with reliable, smooth-turning hubs right out of the box.

Built for Reliability: 2,200 lb Capacity and 1-3/4" Round Steel Tube

A bent or undersized axle can throw your suspension out of line. This one-piece 1-3/4" diameter round steel tube delivers a 2,200 lb weight capacity with strength you can count on. The underslung spring seats are welded to the underside of the axle for leaf-spring mounting, giving you a low, stable ride height that’s easy to load and unload.

Easy Maintenance for Long Life: Straight Easy Grease Spindles with Zerks

Keeping bearings lubed shouldn’t be a chore. Each spindle has a built-in grease zerk, so you can add lubrication without pulling the hub apart. The straight, no-drop design keeps things simple and strong, while the patented welds on the spindles add 40 % more strength to guard against failure.

Confidence in Every Mile: CSA, QAI, and SAE-N Certified

This axle and hub assembly has been thoroughly tested to meet CSA, QAI, and SAE-N standards for strength and performance. That means it’s built to handle real-world towing demands with verified quality and safety, giving you peace of mind every time you hitch up.

Great products, received them in 3 days.



by:

The axle is of great quality, I had to have mine fabricated a bit to match the old spring seats.but I wouldn't hesitate to buy the axle. The shipping and customer service is top notch from etrailer. Excellent products, services and shipping...



by:

The axle arrived on time and well packaged. No problems whatsoever.



by:

Easy ordering, axle arrived on time and no damage. The axle worked perfect for my camping trailer, would recommend your company any time.



by:

Just what I ordered, had to modify to fit my 1720lb Harbor Freight trailer as far as the spring seats. I knew that going in so no big deal. Great help and info from the order person.

Matched it up with bigger tires and etrailer finders!!!



by:

I was told that my item would be received on January 20, 2026. I received part of the item today January 20th. But the axle is arriving tomorrow January 21st according to the people at ETraier. We’ll see. Major inconvenience because IT WASNT COMMUNICATED PROPERLY. Big fan of etrailer but you can do better than this.



by:

The axle was as described. A quality piece, nice thick coat of paint and pre greased hub and bearings.



by:

Axle arrived on time and in great shape. Took only four days to arrive to remote Montana. We will see how well it performs over time.



by:

Good quality axel and everything was included. Customer and technical support were both very helpful as well.



by:

Works great. Easy to purchase from Etra iler



by:

Axle and hubs arrived on time and undamaged, hubs easy to install on axle and install on trailer, will definitely use etrailer again



by:

Helped tremendously in the look and handling of my trailer. Also is working well for the new owner of the trailer that I sold it to



by:

Will install tomorrow then able to write a review

I bought this axle and hubs to replace my broken and worn axle that was left on the side of the road. I had tried a quick fix, but the axle from a local store was too narrow. I found this trailer axle and hub kit and it was the correct assembly to fit my trailer. I was able to replace the worn-out axle and hubs. The new trailer axle and hubs handle my load of the trailer with two Jet Skis, along with a toolbox and extra gas cans. I couldn't be happier with this purchase. A year later I just came home from another trip with the trailer and everything is working great. I had a fabrication shop weld the spring mounts on the trailer axle when I replaced it and it tracks straight down the road. Not bad from a 75-year-old retired guy.



by:

Good price. Fast shipping. Exactly what I ordered. Already mounted to the trailer. Will be a repeat buyer.



by:

Looks to be a well made product but I was disappointed to see it was not US made.. I went with this axel because it is far superior to any I could find for small farm trailer use.. The hubs I got and measured are roughly 2-1/2 inches or 63mm and I could not find this in the specs.. My rims will fit but won't be hub-centric so they will be centered and ride on the lug nuts alone.. I am cutting a foot out of the center of the axle then splicing it together to narrow it for my application so no warranty for me.. This axle and pair of hubs with real bearing should last a very long time on the farm hauling dirt, mulch, stones, firewood..



by:

Easy to install and get my trailer back on the road. Delivery was a day or two later than expected but was still pretty fast.



by:

Had to return. Did not match up with old axel. Called customer service and to order special setup for older boat axel. Waiting on new order which I’ll have to weld kit on axel to match old set up. Thanks to customer service.



by:

With the info provided it was very easy to identify the correct axle for my trailer. Ordering was easy and quick. Delivery was as quoted.



by:

Delivery extremely quick. Very helpful custservice. Only thing….the axle and hub combo did NOT include new castle nuts, washer or new cotter pin.



by:

An excellent choice for my kayak trailer project. 2000# rated and a great match for the other components, springs, hangers and spring mounts.

Everything fits well. It is well made



by:

The product arrived as scheduled. The zerk fittings on the ends were damaged/dented from transport but those were easy to replace. Other than that, we installed the new axle and our trailer is already back on the road. Thank you!

See what our Experts say about this etrailer Trailer Axles

  • Will etrailer Axle Fit 5x7 DK2 Trailer
    Hey Mario! The # e22GR might fit but I don't have the axle information for that trailer. I recommend getting your hub face measurement along with the spring center measurement to see if it matches. I can try to reach out to DK2 but they haven't responded to myself or others on my team for quite a while now so measuring is the best solution. If the 60" length matches but you have a different spring center measurement you will need to cut off the spring seats and weld on # TRSS175 to match...

  • Replacement Axle Needed For Motorcycle Trailer
    Yes we have a number of axel options available, if you can identify what the current axle is that will be best for suggesting a replacement. I think it will be something similar to the Trailer Axle with Idler Hubs, # e22GR which is a very cost effective option. My guess is that you most likely have a bent/damaged spindle instead of a bent axle. However, frequently a better cost effective fix is to simply replace the axle with a new one that already has hubs. You get new axle, greased...

  • Does The Trailer Axle With Idler Hubs # e22GR Have a Front and Rear Side?
    The tag on the Trailer Axle with Idler Hubs # e22GR should face the rear of your trailer. This has an underslung design so the arch will face up with the spring pads on the bottom of the axle. This ensures you have the left and right sides of the axle on the right side. While not as important for left and right on a idler axle it can cause issues on other axles with brakes. Having the tag on the rear of the axle also helps to keep the tag from getting damaged as easily so you can check...

    We have an option for an axle that measures 60 inches from hub face to hub face and comes with hubs that have a 5 on 4-1/2" bolt pattern (5 lugs), though it is a round axle as opposed to a 2" x 2" tube.

  • 60 Inch Trailer Axle w/ 48 Inch Spring Center and a 5 on 4-1/2 Bolt Pattern
    We do have a 2,200 lbs axle with the requested dimensions. It is the eTrailer Axle with Idler Hubs - 5 on 4-1/2 Bolt Pattern - 60" Long item # e22GR. However, all of our axles are round they have a slight bend in the center to help the suspension. When loaded down the axles do straighten out.

  • Do Axles Have Speed Ratings?
    Axle's like the etrailer Trailer Axle with Idler Hubs - 5 on 4-1/2 Bolt Pattern - 60" Long - 2,200 lbs item # e22GR do not have speed ratings. The speed rating comes from other components like the wheels and tires. A great wheel and tire set for the etrailer axle you were looking at is the Kenda Karrier ST205/75R14 Radial Trailer Tire with 14" Black Mod Wheel - 5 on 4-1/2 - LR C item # AM32131. This combo has a speed rating of M which means it can go up to 81 mph.
