This CE Smith hub comes pre-packed with heavy-duty marine-grade grease, so it’s ready to go right out of the case. The bearings (L44649) and races (L44610) are already installed, saving you the extra work of packing grease or pressing parts. Just slide it onto your spindle, tighten it down, and you’re set. It’s a clean, quick setup that makes roadside or driveway installs simple.
If you’re around water or humid conditions, you’ll appreciate how this hub is built. The double-lip grease seal (12192TB) keeps moisture out and grease in, while zinc-plated hardware resists corrosion. The strong cast iron hub is painted black for another layer of protection, so it stays in good shape even after repeated exposure to wet conditions.
This kit comes in a sturdy carrying case with a handle, keeping everything together and ready when you need it. Whether it’s for a quick fix on the road or keeping a spare onboard, the compact case makes it easy to store without taking up much room. It’s peace of mind knowing your replacement hub is right where you need it.
No scrambling for small parts—this hub comes with everything required to replace one assembly: bearings, races, grease seal, grease cap, lug nuts, and a cotter pin. Each part fits neatly into place for a straightforward install that gets you back on the road quicker.
Designed for 2,700-lb axles and wheels up to 12", this idler hub uses 1/2" x 1-7/8" studs and carries up to 1,350 lbs per hub. The precise machining keeps your wheel running true and smooth mile after mile—perfect for keeping your trailer rolling safely under load.
Before purchasing, it’s important to confirm your trailer’s bolt pattern to ensure compatibility with this hub. The following visuals show how to identify and measure both even and odd bolt patterns.
1. Count the lug holes
Look at the wheel hub or the back of the wheel and count how many lug holes there are(also called bolt holes).
Common configurations include: 4-lug, 5-lug, 6-lug and 8 lug
2a. For even lug counts (4-lug, 6-lug, 8-lug)
Measure from the center of one lug hole directly across to the center of the hole opposite it.
Common configurations: 4 on 4", 6 on 5.5", 8 on 6.5"
2b. For odd lug counts (5-lug)
Measure from the center of one lug hole to the outer edge of the hole directly across (not center-to-center since there's no directly opposite hole).
Common configurations: 5 on 4.5" (most popular), 5 on 5", 5 on 4.75", 5 on 5.5"

Replacement Hubs and Bearings installed without trouble and have been working fine over the past year. Much easier as a DIYer to replace the entire assembly with pre-greased bearings.Good fit, good performance.
