Hi, there. I'm Michael with etrailer.com. Today we're gonna take a quick look at this Timken Replacement 15123 Trailer Wheel Bearing. This is gonna be a high quality tapered roller bearing that will replace a bearing in your hub, and you can see the hubs that this is gonna work with on your screen there. So if you have any of those, this is gonna be a great option for you. If you're not familiar, Timken is one of the most well known and highly trusted brands in the industry because their products are engineered with higher quality controls.

So that ensures tighter tolerances and run out than your other manufacturers. That's gonna help reduce any vibrations and noise, and lead to a longer bearing life when you have it properly installed. And this high quality is even evident in the way it's packaged. So this does come individually packaged and oiled. So you're gonna receive it in really great condition and it'll be ready for you to get installed.

Of course, when you're trying to find a replacement for your bearing, you wanna make sure that you're getting one that's gonna fit. So you can see, this does use the industry standard number there. It's printed on that inner circle or cone. We've got our 15123 right up the top there. If you see that number on the bearing that you're replacing, you can trust this is gonna be a very simple switch out, it's gonna fit right in place and do a great job for you.

Otherwise, you can also check your races. So if you see your race has any of those numbers on the screen there, you can trust this is gonna work for you as well. But if you can't find a number on your bearing or on your race, the only other way to check is with your inner diameter measurement. And that is gonna be very precise. It goes down to a thousandth of an inch.

So it's a good idea to use some digital calipers like this. So you can see, our inner diameter is 1.250. So make sure that that's gonna work for you. But as long as it's gonna fit, this is gonna be a great option, as far as performance and longevity. This is gonna be sort of the top of the line when it comes to your bearings because it is that Timken brand. So that completes our look for today. Again, I'm Michael with etrailer.com.
