Saltwater and rough weather can eat through unprotected metal in no time. This axle is made from galvanized steel that’s hot-dipped in zinc to create a 3- to 5-mil thick coating around the entire surface. It’s the same process used for marine hardware, and it gives this axle true corrosion resistance. Every GAL-DEX hub is tested to withstand 500 hours of 5-percent salt spray, so you can count on it to hold up in both freshwater and saltwater use without rusting or flaking.
A bent or uneven axle will make your trailer wander. This one uses a reversible straight beam with no drop or lift, so the spindles stay perfectly aligned. The square 1-1/2" wide tubing adds torsional strength, acting as part of the suspension to keep your trailer tracking true. With a 1,800-lb weight capacity, it’s built to handle small to mid-size loads without flexing or fatigue.
Getting the geometry right makes all the difference in how your trailer rides. This axle measures 57-1/2" from hub face to hub face and 46-1/2" from spring center to spring center. The reversible beam can be set up underslung or overslung, giving you flexibility during a build or replacement. The seatless design means you don’t need to worry about pre-welded spring seats—just line everything up and mount it where you need it.
Each hub comes ready with bearings, races, seals, grease caps, wheel studs, lug nuts, and high-performance synthetic grease. The hub pattern is 5 on 4-1/2", with 1/2"-diameter studs that fit standard trailer wheels from 13" to 15". The spindle size is 1-1/16", and the grease cap outer diameter is 1.983". Bearing set L44649/L44610 and seal RG06-020 (1.50" ID, 1.987" OD) make maintenance simple and ensure smooth, reliable spinning mile after mile.
Whether you’re replacing a worn axle or building a new setup from scratch, this design makes it easy. The straight, seatless construction lets you position the springs exactly where you need them, and the 62" overall beam length gives you room to fit your frame. From small utility jobs to marine trailers, it’s a tough, straightforward axle that’s built to last.

Since you now have an axle with a square tube, you really should use a U-bolt kit that features square U-bolts like CE23102.

I am very pleased with the axle and U bolts I bought. The trailer is used weekly and has held up very well, carrying hundreds of bags of concrete, blocks, tree rounds, and shingles.

Still going strong with no issues what so ever. Best part is the yearly greasing of the hubs. Take the cap off and grease up until all the old grease comes out! Money well spent!
