Question:
Is there an american made bearing which would replace the harbor frieght trailer bearings? The two identifications on the harbor frieght bearings are HCH and 30205. Thank you.

Unfortunately we do not offer a replacement 30205 bearing. The only two options are to contact your trailer manufacturer to see if you can find a USA made bearing, or change the axles of your trailer to accept a more common wheel bearing.
If you do decide to replace your axles there are two types of axles. The first type is a solid axle replacement which you will need to know the hub face to hub face and spring seat to spring seat measurement of your axle. I attached a link to all of our axles for you to view once you have the measurements.
The second type is an axle less system like the Timbren Axle-Less Trailer Suspension System with Hubs # A20RS545 which includes a idler hub for 5 on 4 1/2 bolt pattern or Timbren Axle-Less Trailer Suspension System with Hubs # A20RS440 which includes a idler hub with 4 on 4 bolt pattern. Both of these systems include all of the bearings, races, grease seals, and hubs already installed and use the more common # L44649 inner and outer wheel bearings.
I included a video of the Timbren Axle-Less Systems for you to take a look at.
