Hello everybody, this is Jeff at etrailer.com. Today we're gonna take a look at this double lip grease seal for the 3,700 pound marine hubs. Now this double lip grease seal is designed to fit the Dexter 3,700 pound marine axles. The dimensions on this, the critical dimension is the outer diameter, which would measure 2.561 inches. The inner diameter is gonna be 1.687 inches. And again, this is for a quantity of one double lip seal.
And the way you can tell it's a double lip seal, if you run your finger across it, you can feel the two edges and also on a double lip seal, if you pull the seal back a little bit, you'll be able to see the spring that goes around that outer lip. But that should do it for the review on this double lip grease seal, for the 3,700 pound marine hubs.
If you need parts , they have what you need and you can get parts pretty fast, I use etrailer for my boat trailer needs. Love the their service dept
I converted a boat trailer into a flatbed ATV/UTV trailer. My boat trailer has some different seal dimensions than a normal 3500# axle. These seals saved the day and fit perfectly into standard 3500# hubs for my trailer. Thanks!
Everything came in on time.All parts fit as expected . Tyler B.was easy to work with and helped me select the parts I needed.
Tech recommendation on research was incorrect. Seal is too large for new hub. Disappointing.
Call in did his best but etrailer does not carry the necessary product. They are generating a return.
The products we received from etrailer.com are all excellent. But what really makes this company great is the service! Amy was incredible to work with by email and by phone. She was helpful, quick and seemed to honestly care about our needs! How wonderful to have great products and service too! Thank you!
Rachel was able to find what I needed and get it to me fast!
The hub that was sent the inner bearings do not fit. The old hub bearings and the new hub bearings are identical same numbers even. Even if I had been given the correct hub the new bearings do not fit in the inner hub?? I did call And one of the customer service people helped me through confirming this she gave me her extension. I left her a message she was helpful.
The right part at the right price when you need them.
A great business to do business with!
Everything was as it should be.
Great service!!
Order was easy and received quickly and would have gratefully provided a 5 star rating until I opened the box.
I ordered 4 bearings clearly marked in their boxes. I also ordered 6 seals. These seal were in a zip lock bag without part numbers or any markings. I had to use a digital caliper to identify seals.
Perfect fit
Parts seem great and got here in time. How ever. Staff was very rude incompetent and very difficult to deal with.
The seals look to be a well built quality product. I will be installing them the next time I repack my hubs.

Ive had these seals installed on my trailer for over a year now and havent had any issues with them. Im very satisfied.
Perfect fit for my 2000 EZ Loader tandem axle trailer and Skeeter.
eTrailer, if you're listening, please become a trailer parts expert that has a cross reference listing for trailer parts by manufacturer. I asked if this was the right seal and was told to pull the old seal for the part number on it. The problem was I suspected that the hub had the wrong seal on it, which I confirmed when I replaced it with this part. Using the part number from the existing seal would not have fixed the problem in this case. I had to do my own leg work and find the most likely candidate for the correct seal and take the gamble that I had the right one. Glad my research was correct. Please build your own cross reference of the major manufacturers so that you can be the expert in all things trailer. You have the other stuff covered.

Seals are kind of a pain. Even if a cross-reference sheet was built which is difficult because seals dont use common part numbers like bearings, if the incorrect seal was used like in your case, the cross-reference would only direct you to another incorrect seal. The absolute best way to determine which seal is needed is to measure 2 things with a dial caliper. Measure the seal surface on the spindle, that will give you the seal ID. Measure the diameter of the seal surface on the hub and that will give you the OD of the seal. With the ID and OD of the seal, it becomes very easy to find the seal, even on our site.

Correction to my original review. I had one hub that was replaced on my trailer before I acquired it. This seal worked for that hub, but not the original hubs.
No part number on my boat trailer seal. I measured inside and outside diameters with a digital caliper and it was really simple to match it up at etrailer.com. It fit perfectly. Price was great and delivery time was extremely fast.

No problems at all!
I had a hub and bearing go out on a boat trailer going down the road. Tried matching separate parts locally, but were not available. Was able to order all the parts from etrailer at one time. They had on hand and shipped right away. Parts were exactly what I was looking for. Perfect fit. Now if I would have known that the other side would have failed in the next 12 months I would have done them all at the same time.
These were hard to find, odd size I guess. etrailer came through with quick shipping and they fit perfect. Holding up well so far.

Perfect. Have held up over a number of long trips.
always purchase bearings and seals here for my saltwater double axle trailer. the fit and ride well . good product
Everything was as ordered. Grease Seal part number 168255tb was the same seal included in bearing kit BK2-100.
The description of 168255tb was not the same as the description in kit BK2-100.
I would not have wasted my money on the 2 extra seals if I would have know they were the same

The seal that comes in the BK2-100 kit has a slightly larger diameter than this seal, and that kit typically fits a 3.5K axle. This 168255TB seal is designed specifically for Dexters 3.7K Marine axle.
I trailer my boat every weeks down to shore 60 miles each way with no experience grease leak inner end axle. When the end of fishing season remove wheel during inspection both inner seal look great definitely seal to shop for
This is the only seal I found that would actually seal around my trailer axle. I have a 18ft Trailstar boat trailer. Its been about a year since I installed the seals and haven’t had any issues.
I replaced three old seals in the last one year with these in my twin axle EZ Loader trailer . All of them are holding on well till date. Keeps the grease inside the hub and no leaks found. Works with SS sleeve, in addition.
The axle seals are a nice heavy duty it em.
