Timken LM501310 Replacement Race

Video Transcript for Review of Timken Trailer Races - Replacement LM501310 Race - TMK83FR

Hi there, I'm Michael with etrailer.com. Today we're gonna take a quick look at this Timken replacement race. This is a high-quality LM501310 race. Because it is a Timken product, you can trust it is going to be extremely high-quality. If you're not familiar, Timken is one of the most well-known and well-trusted brands in the industry, and that's because their products are engineered with higher quality controls, which ensures tighter tolerances and run-outs than other manufacturers, and that helps to reduce any vibrations and noise, and lead to a longer life when you have it properly installed. That higher quality is even evident in the way this comes packaged.

So it will arrive to you in an individual cardboard box, with plastic wrapping inside that box. This is oil coated so it's gonna help prevent any surface rust. Make sure that when you get it, it's gonna be in great condition, ready to be installed for you. This does use the industry standard number that you can see there printed on the side. So if you're needing extra confirmation that this is gonna work for you, you can use that number there, make sure that that matches with the race that you are removing.

This is going to work with the bearings models that you see on the screen there. So if you have any of those, extra confidence that this is gonna work for you. If you don't see those numbers on your bearings or that number on your race, the only other way to confirm that it's gonna work for you is by measuring the outer diameter. That's a very precise measurement, so you are gonna need some digital calipers that will go down to a thousandth of an inch. This outer diameter is 2.891 inches, so make sure that that's gonna match up, if you can't find that industry standard number either on your bearings or on your race.

But as long as it matches the size that you need, this is gonna be a great quality, so it is going to provide excellent performance and longevity for you, so it'll be a great option. That completes our look for today. Again, I'm Michael with etrailer.com. Thanks for watching.
