Specs:
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 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.

Galvanized hub-and-drum assembly is ideal for marine use. Compatible with electric or hydraulic brakes. Fits 6,000-lb axles. Inner bearing (25580) and race, outer bearing (15123) and race, grease seal, grease cap, and lug nuts included.I needed to upgrade my boat trailer from free-wheeling spindles to electric brakes because my new tow vehicle has a 5,000 pound tow rating only if the trailer has brakes. I selected the galvanized hub and drum assembly because the brakes will be immersed in fresh water when launching the boat and I want to maximize the rust and corrosion resistance. These drums are solid, heavy construction. After packing the bearings with marine grade grease I installed the hub and drum assemblies, torqued the axle nut and adjusted the brake tension. These are excellent quality brake drums.
Seals that came on the new drums were not the correct inner diameter so they didn’t seal to the axle shaft. Grease was slung all over the brand new brake shoes making them useless and in need of new brake shoes. These were the break drums the etrailer website selected for my trailer.

I see that the inner seal diameter is 2.25 inches. The seals that are included in these kits are configured through standard sizes based off of the axle size you have. Do you by any chance have the number on your original grease seal? This may be helpful in finding the correct size seals for you.
So far so good! Everything installed easily. I have had the trailer in and out of both fresh water and salt water a number of times now and everything is working perfectly. After every tow I always check the hubs and they are cool and not heating up. etrailer was very helpful with finding the correct product and for providing torque specifications for the install. The only negative comment is that the box for shipping had damage due to the weight of the hubs, which contained 4 hubs. Luckily there wasn't any damage to the hubs.
The installation was simple as the etrailer experts said... just take your time and follow the videos. The drums installed well and the bearings took some time to grease up but in the end it worked perfectly. Here are some pictures.
I converted the surge brakes on my boat trailer to electric. These galvanized hiubs worked great.
Very happy with the service.
Good value, arrived quickly using the standard free shipping in spite of the significant weight, inner bearing races already pressed in, zinc plating looks adequate to reduce rusting, fit my axles perfectly
Again, extremely awesome process and products! Thank you!
Great product and price. No complaints
excellent services love it

After one year these hub and drum assemblies are working perfectly. There is no rust or corrosion. When cleaning and regreasing the bearings there was no noticeable wear on the bearings or races. With the Curt Echo brake controller I am getting smooth and strong braking.
