Video Transcript for Checking Out the Taskmaster Modular Wheel w/ +0.08 Offset

Hello everybody, this is Jeff at etrailer.com. Today we're gonna take a look at this Taskmaster 17 and a half inch by six and three quarter inch white modular wheel with a positive offset and has an eight on six and a half inch bolt pattern. Now this is a heavy duty steel wheel, it has the eight hole modular design which is sturdy and corrosion. This is a design, you can see it has the eight round holes that go around the wheel. These are designed for use on trucks, buses, and trailers. Now on this wheel, they do use a three step finishing process, which will first include a zinc phosphate bath, then an eco-primer, and then a white powder coat on both sides of the wheel.

This wheel is a hub piloted wheel, which means it'll require an exact fit of the center hole right here, this pilot hole to the hub on your vehicle. The pilot hole diameter on this is 4.76 inches. Now, hub piloted wheels do require the use of flange nuts for installation. Those we do sell separately on our website. They're usually listed on this product page as a related product.

And the size of the flange nut that's used is five eights of an inch by 18. Now this wheel does have a slight positive offset of 0.08 inches, and a positive offset means that it'll move this wheel and tire closer to the center line of the trailer. If you notice, they do include a high pressure metal valve stem already installed in there. Now this wheel does meet the SAE J1204 Standards. A few measurements on this.

We talked about the diameter on it being 17 and a half inches, and when you measure it, it's the inside measurement. So if we take our tape measure and if we go all the way across, you'll be able to see it's measuring 17 and a half inches for the diameter. The width will be the same way. You're measuring bead seat to bead seat, so inside the inside. So if we go right across, six and three quarter inches for the width, the bolt pattern on this wheel is a eight on six and a half inch bolt pattern.

You can see the holes right here. If you wanna measure the bolt pattern on the wheel, that's an even number of lugs. In this case, eight. It's pretty easy because the lug holes are right across from each other. So when you go to measure it, all you have to do is pick one of the holes like this one, measure from the center of this hole, directly across to the center of the hole right across from it. On this one, it'll measure six and a half inches, so that means it's an eight on six and a half inch bolt pattern. And the weight capacity on this wheel, which will be stamped in the back here, is 6,005 pounds. But that should do it for the review on this Taskmaster 17 point a half inch by six and three quarter inch white modular wheel with a positive offset, and the eight on six and a half inch bolt pattern..
