How does this hub kit simplify installation on my trailer?

CE Smith ships this hub kit fully assembled with bearings pregreased and the internal components already fitted, cutting out several prep steps. The included instructions guide you through axle installation and torque specifications so you won’t need specialist tools beyond common hand tools.

• Fully assembled hub with pregreased inner and outer bearings
• Includes dust cap, cotter pin and lug nuts for a complete install
• Detailed instruction sheet for fitment to a 1-3/8" tapered to 1-1/16" shaft
• Fits hubs sized for up to 15" wheels and corresponding fenders

Will this hub kit hold up in marine and freshwater environments?

The hub is built with marine-grade considerations to resist corrosion and handle wet, salty conditions typical of boat trailers. While no component is impervious to corrosion indefinitely, the materials and protective finishes extend service life when maintained properly.

• Durable construction tailored for boating and fishing trailers
• Protective finishes on external surfaces to resist rust
• Regular maintenance (cleaning, repacking if needed) preserves performance

What load capacity and wheel sizes are supported?

This CE Smith hub assembly is rated for a maximum capacity of 1750 pounds, suitable for many small to mid-size boat and utility trailers. It is designed to accept wheels up to 15" diameter and pairs with 5 on 4.5" bolt pattern wheels and tires that match that specification.

• 1750 lb load rating per hub
• Compatible with 15" maximum wheel diameter
• 5-stud configuration on a 4.5" bolt circle for common trailer wheels

Which axle and bearing dimensions does this hub fit?

The hub kit fits a 1-3/8" tapered spindle to 1-1/16" shaft profile, a common size for many light trailer axles. The 5-stud, 4.5" bolt pattern makes it straightforward to match replacement wheels and rotor drums that share that standard spacing.

• 1-3/8" tapered to 1-1/16" shaft compatibility
• 5 studs on a 4.5" bolt circle for wheel alignment
• Preinstalled bearings sized to the specified spindle dimensions
