Round trailer axle beam measures 72" from hub-face-to-hub-face and 58" from spring-center-to-spring-center. Includes pre-greased idler hubs - with bearings, races, and seals - for 13" to 15" wheels.

Specs:
There are multiple ways to measure the length of an axle beam, but the hub-face-to-hub-face and spring-center-to-spring-center lengths are the most accurate. Hub face (A) refers to the length of the axle measured from the base of one wheel stud to the base of the wheel stud on the opposite side of the axle (when hubs are mounted on the beam).
The spring center (B) is the approximate width of your trailer. It is measured from the center of the spring seat on one side of the axle to the center of the seat on the other. This axle beam comes with the spring seats welded on.
If you are replacing your trailer's axle, you should be able to figure out which type you need by determining your trailer's capacity, the bolt pattern of your wheels, the brake type and the aforementioned lengths.
etrailer axles are made of high-strength steel and come with spindles and spring seats welded on. The spring seats are attached to the underside of the axle so that the leaf springs (sold separately) can mount beneath the axle. The result of this underslung design is a trailer that rides a bit lower for quick and easy loading and unloading.
Each axle is manufactured to create a certain camber angle. This ensures that the angle of the wheels is correct for your towing needs. Because the primary concern when towing is maintaining controlled, in-line movement, each axle is made so that your trailer's tires will run along the pavement evenly, with contact across the width of the tread. The result is excellent straight-line acceleration for steady, in-line tracking. You might notice the bend near the center of the axle; this is what ensures the proper camber angle. Having the center ride a bit higher and the sides of the axle bent lower allows the axle to give just enough to compensate for the load.
This hub-and-drum assembly meets the requirements for certification by the Canadian Standards Association (CSA). The CSA creates standards, which when complied with ensure a safe and quality product. This assembly underwent extensive testing to measure stopping distances when braking. This assembly has also been tested by QAI Laboratories for braking performance in a complete automotive setup and under real-world conditions to provide the most realistic scenario for the everyday driver.
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.

Round trailer axle beam measures 72" from hub-face-to-hub-face and 58" from spring-center-to-spring-center. Includes pre-greased idler hubs - with bearings, races, and seals - for 13" to 15" wheels.Axle seems solid. "Pre-installed" bearings had to be put back in because they slid out easily when installing the hub on the axle. I also had to go out and purchase new cotter pins (both were installed to a point where removing them resulted in one breaking and not trusting the other) and dust caps were heavily dented. That said, axle came 2 days earlier so I got to fish more.
Awesome buy it’s still working great thanks etrailer.com

Review from a similar etrailer Axle Beam w Hubs in Trailer Axles
I purchased two of these axles to replace my old square ones. They appear to be good quality but they arrived damaged. The grease fittings on the ends were smashed because packaging wasn't adequate. I've emailed back and forth and was shipped the wrong parts for replacement. In the end I was told I'd have to cut the spindles off and replace them. All I need is new grease zerks that thread on the ends of the axles. Be prepared to purchase these on your own because customer service is subpar on a remedy and the way they package them for shipping does not prevent damage.

I'm currently installing it to replace a practically good Axle but the Spindle on the original Axle doesn't have Cotter Pins. A friend suggested I change the bearings since the wheel was wobbling but after I changed them, the wheel continued to come off. After watching U-Tube Videos, everyone of them had Cotter Pins, so I decided to be safe rather than sorry and replace the Axle with one of yours plus now ALL the bearings are NEW with New Hubs, WELL WORTH THE MONEY I SPENT.

Easy ordering, axle arrived on time and no damage. The axle worked perfect for my camping trailer, would recommend your company any time.
Review from a similar etrailer Axle Beam w Hubs in Trailer Axles
5 stars for looks, apparent quality, and ease of assembly. My only complaint is the axle came with the zert fittings installed on the ends of the axles. This is convenient, but both were non functional upon arrival. One was slightly damaged, and both had the rubber protective material jammed in the grease fitting that I couldn’t remove. I had 2 extra zert fittings in the shop, so quick change and no problem. Maybe these could be shipped uninstalled?
Other than the small, minor complaint, the axle and hubs look great.

Great product! I bent my old axle by overloading my utility trailer. I found your web site and found a replacement. I thought the price was reasonable. The new axle came fast and was easy to install.

Arrived today, looks good except for one of the grease zerks is damaged from shipping. Bearings are Chinese but I plan to upgrade them in a year or two.
Review from a similar etrailer Axle Beam w Hubs in Trailer Axles
Poor packaging for shipping of the axle. Was just rapped in thin plastic. Both ends were exposed. Not sure how nothing was damaged. The hubs came separately and boxed as expected.

When I opened the box I was missing the 4 hubs. I called CS 2:30 on a Wednesday and notified them. I was going out of town Friday to fix a trailer. I told Bailey with CS this and she said I will have them by Friday I be darn 10am Friday they were at my door. I am Houston not very close to them. I guess they sent them air. Anyway excellent CS and the parts are quality as well I have ordered from them before Thanks Bailey.

Great service. I live in Hawaii, so it took a little longer to get my order, but etrailer kept me updated and were super helpful
Review from a similar etrailer Axle Beam w Hubs in Trailer Axles
Excellent customer service. The axle got separated from the hubs in shipment. When I called them, they told me it was backordered for a month. They contacted me less than a week later and sent me a new one. They were very attentive.
Putting it all together was relatively easy, if a little messy. This axle combo compared to the old one is like the difference between a paper straw and a metal one!
