E-Z Lube and Easy Grease-Compatible Hub for Simple Lubrication
The grease cap on this hub is specially designed to work with your Dexter E-Z Lube or etrailer Easy Grease 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"

I ordered on a Sunday to replace old 5x4.75 (uncommon size) hubs after discovering the new wheels and tires I ordered were 5x4.5 (common size) no I did not measure my old wheels. My old bearings were superseded by these bearings included in this kit. Assembly was a breeze. These were marked as shipped on SUNDAY! Thanks, you have my business.
by: Check Bearing Sizes08/13/2023
The , order window for this product did not show the bearing sizes, and they shipped me the hub with wrong bearings, so I had to return it. Looking over the item description a 2nd time, It was difficult to locate the bearing sizes. That feature should be very visible for customers to find, so that they don't order the wrong size bearings.
by: Bill07/05/2023
The hub assemblies I bought worked fine for my trailer, thank you Martha O. I was a little disappointed that I didn't get American made products but overall the Chinese parts fit fine. The packing left a little to be desired, one dust cap was dented and I had to do some filing on it before I could hammer it in to place. One roller bearing casing was also dented a small amount but the bearing was still smooth so I went ahead with it. The parts did travel from Missouri to California and the box was pretty beat up. Maybe etrailer could double bag the parts? The box did get here in just a few days so they shipping was good. I would buy these parts again if I ever needed to.
by: Kevin04/12/2019
Ordered the hub and recipe it very quickly. They provided a video for reference on installation. It was very well made and easy to install. Very pleased with it, but the best part was the customer service. The old hub and bearings were so destroyed that I couldn’t get any numbers off of it. The lady from etrailer stayed on the phone and helped me research it until we found the right hub and bearings!!! In the end it was exactly what I needed and as happy as I am with the product, I’m more happy about the friendly and knowledgeable customer service they provided!!! Highly recommend the company and the products they sell!!!!

Great product, arrived a day earlier than expected with the free shipping option. Will buy again from etrailer when it’s time to do it again.

I have always had good service with etrailer but this time it appeared my order was going to be two weeks out on delivery which would of hampered my vacation. I contacted Gwen at etrailer asking if she could look into the delayed shipment, she was very professional and extremely nice stating she would look into the product shipping early but there was no promises. I received my order two days later, hats off to Gwen for saving my vacation

Couldn't be more satisfied! I change from 5 on 5 to 5 on 4.5. I've been rolling on these hubs about 2500 miles. Every time I jack up the trailer I spin the tire, smooth as ever. Thankx LSD

Love all the products I have purchased from E traile BUT until E trailer starts shipping with fed X or a faster delivery company other than the United States Postal Service, which is very slow. It cost me a weekend of no boating and almost missed out on Fourth of July boating.
by: Robert 07/19/2023
Bought 2 of these as an emergency fix if needed. Product was as described and appears to be of good quality. Came with every piece pictured and was shipped quickly. Only time will tell and hopefully I won't have to use them.

No castle nuts or washers with this

Have not mounted on trailer yet, but test fitted. Exact fit part for 3500 lbs Road King boat trailer. All parts included as described on etrailer's website. One of the benefits from ordering with etrailer are the "how to" videos and their "ask an expert" forum.

100% AWESOME
by: Mark09/18/2021
Would have given 5 stars but... product damaged due to inadequate packing the bubble wrap bag is not enough to protect the somewhat fragile grease covers from the weight of the two hubs. and one arrived too damaged for me to use. Also the product a bit more expensive than what can be found for an apparently similar product from other sites.But I went with etrailer because I have had great past experiences.

- How To Find Correct Replacement Idler Hubs for Legend Tandem Axle TrailerWe currently offer trailer idler hubs with a 5 on 4-1/2" bolt pattern for the following size axles; 2,000 lb, 2,200 lb, 2,500 lb, 2,700 lb, and 3,500 lb. In order to find out which is correct for you, you'll need to know your axle capacity which is printed on a white tag in the center of the beam most times. The Easy Grease Trailer Idler Hub Assembly part # AKIHUB-545-35-EZ-K for example is for a 3,500 ln axle and our most popular option. I have attached our full list of options below as...
view full answer... - Replacement Idler Hub Recommendation for a 2017 Dutchmen Coleman Lantern LT Travel TrailerThe correct replacement idler hub for the 3.5K axle on your 2017 Dutchmen Coleman Lantern LT Travel Trailer is the following: - Easy Grease Trailer Idler Hub Assembly # AKIHUB-545-35-EZ-K This hub comes pre-greased with the bearings and grease seal installed as well as a grease cap for both standard and EZ Lube spindles so you'll be set and ready to go!
view full answer... - Replacement Idler Hub for Hub Stamped With TMW 46210 1209It appears TMW is a overseas company which I could not find much information. The 46210 is a common hub number for a 3,500lb idler hub with 5 on 4-1/2" bolt pattern. This would use either the Idler Hub # AKIHUB-545-35-G-K for standard spindles or the Easy Grease Hub # AKIHUB-545-35-G-EZ-K if your spindle has a grease zerk on the end of the spindle. The 1209 may be a date code or batch type number the manufacturer used to identify and changes in materials or processing.
view full answer... - Correct Replacement for TDE 46210 Trailer HubThere typically aren't any part numbers stamped onto the trailer spindle that can be used for identification. There are however numbers stamped onto the hub most times which can be used for identification. The TDE46210 tells me you have a 3,500 lb axle so you can use the Trailer Idler Hub Assembly part # AKIHUB-545-35-G-EZ-K for galvanized or part # AKIHUB-545-35-K for standard.
view full answer... - What Replacement Hubs do I Need for My 3500 Pound Boat Trailer Axle?Thanks so much for providing those details! Based on your bearing numbers, you definitely have a 3.5k axle with a 5 on 4-1/2 lug pattern. For replacement hubs, I recommend the Easy Grease Trailer Hub/Drum Assembly for 3.5K Axles - 10" Diameter - 5 on 4-1/2 - Galvanized # AKHD-545-35-G-EZ-K (if you have E-Z Lube or Easy Grease spindles) or the Trailer Hub and Drum Assembly - 3,500-lb Axles - 10" Diameter - 5 on 4-1/2 - Galvanized # AKHD-545-35-G-EZ-K (if you have standard spindles).

view full answer... - Recommended Galvanized Trailer Idler Hub for Trailer with 3,500 Lb Axle Yes, we do have exactly what you're looking for in the Trailer Idler Hub Assembly for 3,500-lb Axles part # AKIHUB-545-35-G-K for standard or part # AKIHUB-545-35-G-EZ-K for easy grease which both have a galvanized finish. Furthermore, the kit comes with new wheel nuts as well so you'll have pretty much a new setup.
view full answer... - Replacement Hub for OnSpec Boat Trailer with 3,500 lb AxleSince your OnSpec Boat Trailer has a 3,500 lb axle the correct idler hub would be the part # AKIHUB-545-35-G-EZ-K that you referenced. Which comes with a dust cap that has a removable center plug for zerk fitting access, new bearings, lug nuts, and a seal. For a cotter pin you'd then need the part # 165649.
view full answer... - Do the etrailer Hub Assemblies for 3,500 lb. Axles Work With Slip on RotorsThe studs on the Trailer Idler Hub Assembly for 3,500-lb E-Z Lube Axles part # AKIHUB-545-35-G-EZ-K are 1-5/16" in length. This is generally a good length for this application. So as long as the slip on rotors you are using require a stud length shorter than that you will be in good shape.
view full answer... - How to Choose the Correct Replacement HubTo ensure that you get a hub that fits your spindle correctly you will want to use a digital caliper and measure points B, C, and D (see attached picture) of your spindle to the 3rd decimal place, for example 1.750. These measurements will help us to determine what bearings sizes and grease seal that the replacement hub needs for it to be compatible with your spindle. From your description I can tell that you have a 5 on 4-1/2" bolt pattern on your hub, but I am not quite sure which bearings...

- Are Easy Grease Style Trailer Spindles Actually Better The spindle of your axle would need to have the grease fittings which can't simply be added on. You'd have to replace the entire spindle. Before you do that it's worth mentioning that we see more problems for people with those types of spindles than what you have now as they make it almost too easy to add grease to the hubs which then blows out the seal while on the highway. Packing grease by hand is the way to go and gives best results. I attached a video this page that details best way...

The outer bearing dimension needs to be 1.06 and the seal dimension 1.73 inch. If that is the case for your spindle the hub part # AKIHUB-545-35-G-EZ-K that you referenced would be a confirmed fit.
