No need to pack bearings or mess with seals. The CE Smith Trailer Hub Assembly comes pre-greased with heavy-duty, marine-grade lubricant and arrives fully assembled with bearings, races, grease seal, grease cap, lug nuts, and cotter pin in place. It’s a full setup for one wheel rated for "1,250 lbs" and designed for "2,500-lb" axles. With the inner and outer bearings (L44643) already packed and the races (L44610) pressed in, the hub is ready to slide onto your spindle right out of the box.
Moisture is no match for its double-lip grease seal that locks grease in and keeps water out. The cast-iron hub is painted black to fight corrosion, and the zinc-plated lug nuts, cotter pin, and grease cap add another layer of defense against rust. It’s built to hold up in damp or salty environments where lesser hardware quickly gives up.
This hub kit comes tucked neatly in its own carrying case with a handle. Everything needed to replace one hub stays together so it can ride along as a backup for roadside fixes or be stored safely between uses. When a bearing failure strikes mid-trip, having this ready-to-mount spare can turn hours of downtime into minutes.
The hub uses a 5 on 4-1/2" bolt pattern with 1/2" diameter studs that are 1-7/8" long. Both the inner and outer bearings are L44643 with a 1" inner diameter, paired with grease seal #12192TB (1.249" IDx1.983" OD). Designed for wheels up to 12", it’s a solid match for many small trailers using standard 1" spindles.
Each hub carries up to "1,250 lbs" with a hub flange measuring 5-9/16" across and a 1.98" inner bore. The durable cast-iron build provides steady performance mile after mile, whether you’re hauling gear locally or pulling longer trips with confidence that your hub is ready for the work.
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"
