Specs:
There are multiple ways to measure the length of an axle beam, but the hub-face-to-hub-face and spring-center-to-spring-center lengths are the most accurate. Hub face (A) refers to the length of the axle measured from the base of one wheel stud to the base of the wheel stud on the opposite side of the axle (when hubs are mounted on the beam).
The spring center (B) is the approximate width of your trailer. It is measured from the center of the spring seat on one side of the axle to the center of the seat on the other. This axle beam comes with the spring seats welded on.
If you are replacing your trailer's axle, you should be able to figure out which type you need by determining your trailer's capacity, the bolt pattern of your wheels, the brake type and the aforementioned lengths.
etrailer axles are made of high-strength steel and come with spindles and spring seats welded on. The spring seats are attached to the underside of the axle so that the leaf springs (sold separately) can mount beneath the axle. The result of this underslung design is a trailer that rides a bit lower for quick and easy loading and unloading.
Each axle is manufactured to create a certain camber angle. This ensures that the angle of the wheels is correct for your towing needs. Because the primary concern when towing is maintaining controlled, in-line movement, each axle is made so that your trailer's tires will run along the pavement evenly, with contact across the width of the tread. The result is excellent straight-line acceleration for steady, in-line tracking. You might notice the bend near the center of the axle; this is what ensures the proper camber angle. Having the center ride a bit higher and the sides of the axle bent lower allows the axle to give just enough to compensate for the load.
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 Laboratories 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.

Great company and great customer support. Would recommend.
Worked as it should no problem bolted right up
The hubs didn’t fit the axel right. There was a gap where the axle met the hub. it wasn’t sealed good so I was hesitant to put it on the road. I thought it be a kit would be easy and would match up right away, but that was not the case. I also thought they would’ve been assembled for me before I bought it. I wasn’t aware that I would have to put the hubs on the axle myself. It’s a shame because I’ve never been able to use my boat Because of thisb
An excellent choice for my kayak trailer project. 2000# rated and a great match for the other components, springs, hangers and spring mounts.
Easy ordering, axle arrived on time and no damage. The axle worked perfect for my camping trailer, would recommend your company any time.
My axle and hub assemblies arrived ahead of the scheduled date and were just as described. Everything fit and worked just right.
I received the trailer axle in a timely manner and fit was perfect! Very happy with the new assembly and no longer worried about wearing out tires on a long road trip.
Axle and hubs worked great for repairing our boat trailer. Awesome customer service and follow-up!!
trailer axel is excelent. I have towed it about 4000 miles. It tyracks excellent and is very stable.
Solid axle and hubs. Got my trailer back on the road with an easy swap. Thanks
the axle was good bad measuring on my part center to center holes was 1/2 inch off i had to lengthen the mounting holes, other than that (my fault ) it was great
First axle came and was only 65" long. The axle was mislabeled during manufacturing and had a tag on the packaging for the axle I ordered 89" long. I immediately called etrailer customer service and they overnighted me the correct replacement. Correct axle was of good quality but the customer service at etrailer is top notch.
everything worked just as expected. the specs and info on the site were the reason I chose etrailer.com
I purchased two of these axles to replace my old square ones. They appear to be good quality but they arrived damaged. The grease fittings on the ends were smashed because packaging wasn't adequate. I've emailed back and forth and was shipped the wrong parts for replacement. In the end I was told I'd have to cut the spindles off and replace them. All I need is new grease zerks that thread on the ends of the axles. Be prepared to purchase these on your own because customer service is subpar on a remedy and the way they package them for shipping does not prevent damage.
Fast service with quality parts. I have recommended this company to many people.
The product arrived in a timely manner. It was easy to install as it fit just right. It has been functioning well since installation.
Customer Support was great.
The axle is of great quality, I had to have mine fabricated a bit to match the old spring seats.but I wouldn't hesitate to buy the axle. The shipping and customer service is top notch from etrailer. Excellent products, services and shipping...
Just what I ordered, had to modify to fit my 1720lb Harbor Freight trailer as far as the spring seats. I knew that going in so no big deal. Great help and info from the order person.
Matched it up with bigger tires and etrailer finders!!!
Great website made it easy to find the correct replacement axle. Videos were very helpful. Installation was simple. It summary great experience .
