Thoroughly Tested for Safety
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.
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"

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 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.

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

- How To Find Correct Replacement 6-Lug Hubs for Boat TrailerI have a few options for you to help with identifying the hubs on your trailer. The first and easiest method would be to crawl under the trailer and look for the axle tag on the beam. This should give an axle capacity which we can then use to find the bearings based off industry standards. For example, a 6,000 lb axle uses a 25580 inner and 15123 outer bearing like what comes with the Trailer Hub and Drum Assembly part # AKHD-655-6-G-K. The other option would be to take the hubs off the...
view full answer... - Correct Trailer Hub and Drum Assembly for 1994 Four Winns Boat Trailer with 4,740 Lb GAWRThe Trailer Hub and Drum Assembly part # AKHD-655-6-G-K should work just fine on a 1994 Four Winns Boat Trailer with 25580 and 15123 bearings. I would however confirm the grease seal GS2250DL (2.250") is correct as there is another commonly used, part # GS-2125DL (2.1250"). The #42 type spindle is just a classification used to help sort bearings.
view full answer... - Hubs and Electric Brake Assemblies for M1010A2 Military Trailer The etrailer.com Trailer Hub and Drum Assembly # AKHD-655-6-EZ-K referenced in your question is designed for 5,200 or 6,000 pound axles. The weight capacity of the hub itself (for a single hub) is 3,000 pounds. As long as your current hubs use the # 25580 inner bearing and # 15123 outer bearing this hub will work great as a replacement. The hub has a 6 on 5-1/2 inch bolt pattern. I am not sure what you mean by searching for a more durable hub. This particular unit does feature a sturdy...
view full answer... - Are Trailer Brake Assemblies Side-SpecificBrake assemblies are definitely side specific. If you put the wrong brake assembly on the wrong side of the trailer, the brakes won't work correctly, and could cause the trailer to jackknife. Brake Drums like the # AKHD-655-6-G-K you'd mentioned aren't side specific. For the # AKHD-655-6-G-K brake drums you'd asked about, for electric brakes I'd recommend the # AKEBRK-7-SA self adjusting brake assemblies. After 20 or 25 braking events (best done in a big parking lot) the brakes will be...
view full answer... - Galvanized 6 Lug Trailer Hub For a Spindle With 2.125 Grease Seal and 1.75/1.25 Bearing SizesIf you are only needing an idler hub we have the DeeMaxx # DE96VR which you will need to combine with the Bearings # 25580, # 15123, Grease Seal # GS-2125DL and either a standard Grease Cap # F001520 or EZ Lube Cap # DC250L-DCRP. For a hub/drum assembly we have either the EZ Lube Hub/Drum # AKHD-655-6-G-EZ-K or Standard Hub/Drum # AKHD-655-6-G-K. Both of these will require you to switch the grease seal to the Seal # GS-2125DL which fits your spindle.

The Trailer Hub and Drum Assembly # AKHD-655-6-G-K has a galvanized finish to also prevent corrosion. It will include new bearings, races, grease seal, dust cap and lug nuts.

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.
