Does the TST TPMS for RVs Monitor Trailer Bearing Temperature

Updated 07/06/2020 | Published 07/02/2020

Question:

On a boat trailer, is this practical or is there something else that can alert hub/rotor/bearing temps over lets say 250 degrees to provide a heads up on long drives before catastrophe?

The TST TPMS for RVs part # TST-507-RV-4-C is a very useful device that not only allows you to monitor tire pressure but also tire temperature which is a big one. It will work just fine on a boat trailer as well even if submerged under water. I will say that the device will help to monitor hub temperature but not as directly as it does for the tires. I am however not aware of any such device specifically for the hubs so this is your best option.
