Video Transcript for Review of Timken Trailer Bearing - Replacement L44643 Trailer Wheel Bearing - TMK89FR

Hi, there. I'm Michael with etrailer.com. Today we're gonna take a quick look at this Timken replacement Trailer Wheel Bearing. This is a high quality L44643 tapered roller bearing that's going to replace an inner or outer bearing for your BT8 spindle. This says use the industry standard number. So you can see that printed on the side there, that L44643.

And so if you have that number on the bearing that you're needing to replace, you can trust it is gonna be a very simple swap out for you. This is also going to work with the matching races that you see on the screen there. Now, neither one of those is included with this, but this will work with both of those races. So again, another way to confirm that it's gonna work for your setup. And then a third way to confirm is going to be by measuring your inner diameter.

You can see our inner diameter here. We're sitting right at one inch. 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, which ensures tighter tolerances and run outs than other manufacturers. So you are gonna have less vibration and noise with this bearing. It's also going to help to extend the bearing's life over the other options.

So as long as you have it installed properly, of course. That higher quality is even evident in the way that this comes individually packaged in its own cardboard box. And it does have an oil coating on it to help resist surface rust, and corrosion, and that sort of thing. So when you get it, it is going to arrive to you in excellent condition, ready to be installed. So if you are looking for a very high quality bearing to replace your current bearing, this is gonna be a great way to go.

And that completes our look for today. Again, I'm Michael with etrailer.com. Thanks for watching.
