Lazy or Unbraked Hub Applications
Lazy or unbraked hubs are popular on trailers under 750kg.
The unbraked hub is also used as the rear axle on tandem trailers, and it is often called ‘the lazy axle’ because it lacks a braking function.
Braked axles used as the primary front axle are
- 9-inch Mechanical
- 9-inch Hydraulic
- 10-inch Disc Rotor
- 10-inch Electric
How to install an unbraked hub onto an axle
In particular, I want to learn how to install marine seals. The same installation techniques apply to installing marine lazy hubs and disc rotors. As a result of using these installation techniques, you will achieve many maintenance-free journeys.
Available in the following PCD.
- Ford 5 Stud S/L (5 x 114.3 PCD 1/2 studs)
- HT/Torana (5 x 4.25” PCD 7/16 studs)
- HQ (5 x 4.75″ PCD 7/16 studs)
- LandCruiser (5 x150 PCD 9/16 studs)
We recommend Japanese bearings for high-speed highway use and the longevity of your trailer bearings. Check your bearings yearly for water ingress or black carbon deposits in your grease. Carbon black represents bearing wear, so they will need replacing. Carbon black comes from wear on the bearing casing.
In summary, galvanising unbraked trailer hubs has a negligible effect on the load rating.
