Corrosion Resistance for Marine Use
This trailer hub assembly has a zinc coating that resists corrosion, making it ideal for use on your boat or snowmobile trailer. All GAL-DEX hubs undergo a test in which they are sprayed with a 5-percent salt solution to determine corrosion resistance over time. These products are able to withstand 500 hours of constant exposure to the saltwater mist. This 500-hour salt spray rating indicates that a product is not only durable enough to last in freshwater environments, but it can also be used on trailers that come into contact with saltwater
E-Z Lube-Compatible Assembly for Simple Lubrication
The grease cap on this hub-and-drum assembly is specially designed to work with your Dexter E-Z Lube axle to make lubricating bearings quick and easy. Just remove the plug on the grease cap, attach a grease gun to the zerk fitting on the end of the spindle, and inject the grease. It will flow easily to both inner and outer bearings. Not only does this make lubricating the bearings easy, but it also helps to prevent corrosion of the hub. This is because you can lubricate the bearings without the mess of taking apart the entire assembly.
Determining the Bolt Pattern
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.
- If D = 2-5/8", then the bolt pattern is 5 on 4-1/2"
- If D = 2-3/4", then the bolt pattern is 5 on 4-3/4"
- If D = 3", then the bolt pattern is 5 on 5"
- If D = 3-1/4", then the bolt pattern is 5 on 5-1/2"

Purchased 4 brake kits and hub/drum assemblies for a 12 yr old tandem axle aluminum car carrier. Great product, quality, and delivery. Installed new bearings, brakes and drums, looks great and and rides line new...!!!
My salesman Troy provided me superb assistance and customer service. Kudos to etrailer and Troy..!!
by: Hal C09/07/2017
Had to wait a few days for etrailer to get these plated hubs back in stock, but when they arrived installation was what you'd expect. Quality seems very good, and made in USA (bonus). These are Dexter brand hub/drums. Time will tell if the plating will make any difference on my boat trailer application. Originals were not plated and were ugly/rusty, but also 30 years + old so I opted to replace vs have them turned / wire-brush and paint. Glad I waited.

Fit perfectly, easy install
by: Scott M09/23/2016
These drums are nice made in the USA parts with every thing you need to install them for half the money you would pay at a trailer shop.
Shipped to my door and package so they weren't all beat to crap when I received them.
Nice job etrailer.

All parts were received and in new condition. The packaging was perfect. I will not install the brakes for another few days so rating performance is out for now.
etrailer was prompt in shipping and answered my questions by email and phone.

Had them for about a year. Work great. They have been holding up to the saltwater. Don't see a spot of rust. And I never wash them off after pulling my boat out.

- Karavan 2600 lb Single Axle Boat Trailer Electric BrakesTo add electric brakes to your Karavan US-2200-74-ST boat trailer, where Karavan has specified L44649 as the outside bearing and L68149 as the inside bearing, you will need the following parts.

- Replacement Bearings and Seals for Hub 8-247 on a 1999 Coleman Pop-up TrailerIt sounds like you may have hub # 8-247-50UC3-EZ or similar. This hub takes bearing kit # BK2-100. The inner bearing is L68149 and the outer bearing is L44649. It takes a 10-19 grease seal with 1.719 inch inner diameter. If you can pull a hub and remove the bearings, the bearing numbers are stamped into the metal of the bearings. I have included a link to a video that should help. The brakes for this hub are 10 x 2-1/4 inch assemblies for 3,500 pound axles. The right hand side would be...

- Hub Assembly Recommendation for Ranger Trail Boat TrailerI have attached a link to all of our trailer hubs that use # L68149 and # L44649 bearings and have a 5 on 4-1/2 bolt pattern. I recommend the Dexter Trailer Hub Assembly # 8-247-50UC3-EZ. This hub features a grease cap that is compatible with EZ lube spindles that have a grease fitting out the end of the spindle. The galvanized hub is ideal for marine use, and will be durable enough for both freshwater and marine environments. This assembly comes with bearings, races, and a grease seal....
view full answer... - Replacement Hub/Drums and Brake Assemblies for Hubs Marked 8-247 The hub you would need is the Trailer Hub part # 8-247-50UC3-EZ as it is an exact replacement. Then for new assemblies you'd want the kit part # AKEBRK-35-SA which comes with both sides of the trailer's brake assemblies. These are self-adjusting assemblies as well.
view full answer... - Replacement Axle for Older Trailer That Uses Hubs with Obsolete BearingsAll hubs for 15-inch wheels in your 5-on-4-1/2-inch bolt pattern are shown on the linked page. These include both idler hubs for trailers without brakes and hub/drums for trailers with drum brakes. These various hub parts are compatible with axle weight ratings from a low of 2000-lbs up to 4000-lbs. New hubs must use the same bearings as your old hubs in order for them to fit on your existing spindles. Older trailers can be a challenge when it coms to finding compatible replacement hubs. None...
view full answer... - Replacement Dexter 8-247 Wheel HubYes, since the hub you currently have has 8-247 stamped on it the Trailer Hub part # 8-247-50UC3-EZ that you referenced would be the correct hub for you to use. This hub is 10 by 2-1/4 inch and has a 5 on 4-1/2 inch bolt pattern.
view full answer... - Replacement Hub/Drum and Hydraulic Brake Assembly for Boat Trailer With 3,500 lb Axle and 13" WheelsThe # 8-247-50UC3-EZ and # AKHD-545-35-G-EZ-K will both fit and work with your 13" wheels. These are also compatible with the # 40716-15 from your previous question. For the most part it comes down to cost between the two hub/drum assemblies. However, since this will be going in the water on your boat trailer I would stick with the Dexter which has the 500-hour salt spray rating. The Hydraulic Brake Kit # AKFBBRK-35-D will work with your 13" wheels but I would stick with the Demco. The...
view full answer... - Electric Brake Assembly Recommendation to Use with Dexter Hub 8-247-50UC3-EZ Because we know that you have the part # 8-247-50UC3-EZ on your trailer we figure out what you would need.

view full answer... - Replacement Hub and Drum Recommendation for Dexter 8-247I figured out what you have. The Dexter hub you have is actually an 8-247 hub like the part # 8-247-50UC3-EZ which would be the correct hub drum, but if you wanted just a hub you would want the part # AKIHUB-545-35-G-EZ-K

For a pair use # RG04-010. Bearing Buddies can be hard to drive in. What you can do is use a block of wood and hammer it and it will evenly distribute the force of the hammer blows to seat the Bearing Buddy properly.

Both fit the spindles on this Timbren kit and both have the 5-on-4-1/2 wheel bolt pattern. If you don't mind spending more we also have a stainless steel idler hub from Kodiak, part # KH84545S.
