Determining the Bolt Pattern

The first number in the bolt pattern is the number of bolt holes. The second number denotes the diameter, in inches, of the circle on which the bolt holes sit.

Bolt Pattern - Even

On wheels with an even number of bolt holes, measure from the center of one bolt hole to the center of the hole directly across from it. (Example: 8 on 6-1/2 means 8 bolt holes with 6-1/2" from the center of one hole to the center of another on the opposite side.)

Bolt Pattern - Odd

To determine the bolt-circle diameter on wheels with an odd number of bolt holes, measure from the center of any bolt hole to the point halfway between the two bolt holes directly across from the first. (Example: 5 on 4-1/2 means 5 bolt holes with 4-1/2" measured to a point halfway between the opposite bolt holes.)

Bolt Pattern - Side

Measuring the distance (D) from the center of one bolt hole on the wheel to the center of a bolt hole right next to it can also help to determine the bolt pattern.

  • If D = 2-5/8", then the bolt pattern is 5 on 4-1/2"
  • If D = 2-3/4", then the bolt pattern is 5 on 4-3/4"
  • If D = 3", then the bolt pattern is 5 on 5"
  • If D = 3-1/4", then the bolt pattern is 5 on 5-1/2"

The product was just what I ordered but the packaging was inadequate for the weight of the hub. The package came apart and was retaped by ups. Since the package was damaged, several prices were missing and one of the bearings was damaged. I was able to get by with purchasing the missing and damaged items locally.

  • Trailer Hub/Drum Part Number 2420801 Replacement Recommendation
    The Lippert 2420801 hub is an 8k hub with an 8 lug bolt pattern so for a replacement you'd just need the part # 8-285-10UC3-A which is the same size drum you mentioned of 12-1/4 inch by 3-3/8 inch and also has 5/8 inch wheel studs.

  • Hub and Drum for 8,000 Pound Trailer Axle that Uses 5/8 Inch Studs
    We have one hub and drum assembly that uses the same bearings as the hub you referenced but that also has 5/8 inch studs. It is # 8-285-10UC3-A. This hub is rated for 8,000 pound axles but it is an oil bath hub and doesn't use grease like regular hubs. Despite it being an oil bath hub you can still use it. The lug nuts are included.

  • What Hub/Drums and Brakes do You Recommend for My Kaufman Trailer?
    Since you mentioned that you have 8k hybrid axles and 7k spindles, I recommend confirming your inner/outer bearings to ensure you are getting the correct hubs/drums and brakes with the correct weight capacity. With that being said, if you have 8k axles with 5/8-inch studs, I recommend the Trailer Hub and Drum Assembly - 8,000-lb Axles - 8 on 6-1/2 - Oil Bath # 8-285-10UC3-A (with # 02475 outer bearing and # 25580 inner bearing). If you have 7k axles, I recommend the Dexter Trailer Hub...

  • Recommended Wet Hub and Drum Assembly for 8000 pound Trailer Axles
    For an oil bath or "wet" hub and drum assembly on your trailer with 8,000 pound axles, I recommend using the Redline # 8-285-10UC3-A. This has an 8 on 6-1/2 bolt pattern and includes lug nuts, inner bearing 25580, outer bearing 02475, races, oil seal and cap. I spoke with the manufacturer and the general maintenance schedule for oil bath hubs is 12 months or 12,000 miles, which is actually the same recommendation we give for grease hubs. Also keep in mind that with oil bath hubs you will...

  • What Kind of Oil is Used for a Wet Bath Hub and Drum Assembly and How Much
    To add oil to the Trailer Hub and Drum Assembly - 8,000-lb Axles - 8 on 6-1/2 - Oil Bath Item # 8-285-10UC3-A I recommend using 80w-90 gear oil. The 80w-90 gear oil is what we use on any of our new wet bath hub and drum assembly installs. Unlike greased bearings the wet bath oil doesn't have to be replaced it can just be added to what is there. Remove the rubber plug on the front of the cap and add the oil until it comes up line on the front of the cap. Once filled I recommend letting...

  • 8k Rated etrailer Hub/Drums that Work as Replacement for Dexter 8-285 Hub
    Yes the etrailer hub/drum # AKHD-865-8-K that you referenced would work great as a replacement for the Dexter 8-285 hub part # 8-285-10UC3-A that you also mentioned. Then for a set of brake assemblies we have the self adjusting Dexter kit part # 23-434-435 which would work great or the etrailer equivalent part # AKEBRK-8.

  • Replacement 8 on 6-1/2" Hub And Drum Assembly With Oil Bath
    We currently only have two axle capacities for a 8 on 6-1/2" drum with integrated oil bath. For an axle capacity of 5,200 to 7,000 lbs, I recommend using the Trailer Hub and Drum Assembly part # 8-219-9UC3-A and part # 8-285-10UC3-A for 8,000 lb Dexter axles. In order to recommend the correct replacement drum and hub assembly with oil bath for you, I would need to know either the axle capacity or the bearings installed on your spindle. You can do this by finding the information tag on...

  • Can Dexter Trailer Hub # 008-399-93 Be Used with Drum Brakes
    The Dexter Trailer Hub # 008-399-93 that you referenced can only be used for disc brakes with the addition of an appropriately rated rotor assembly like # K71-635-00. For electric or hydraulic drum brakes a hub-and-drum assembly is needed instead. For an oil bath 8,000 pound hub-and-drum assembly that will fit the same spindle as the above option the Dexter # 8-285-10UC3-A will work perfectly. For the corresponding brake assemblies I recommend the Dexter Self-Adjusting # 23-450-451 for...

  • What is Needed to Convert 7k Dexter Axles to Fit 17.5 inch Trailer Wheel/Tire
    Hey Russel, you are going to need to replace your hub/drums since the 17.5 inch wheel and tire combos like the part # TA69VR require the 5/8 inch wheel studs and you currently have 1/2 inch. So what you need is the part # 8-285-10UC3-A that fits your spindle, has the correct bolt pattern, stud diameter , as well as hub bore diameter to perfectly match the # TA69VR. The hub also comes with the correct wheel flange nuts as well.

  • Replacement Brake Assembly and Oil Seal for Dexter 00828510 Brake Drums
    It looks as if you have the # 8-285-10UC3-A Dexter Oil Bath hubs. Thanks for sending the photo! Those hubs take a 12 x 3-3/8 inch brake assembly, I'd recommend a self-adjusting brake assembly kit like # K23-532-533-00 which are compatible with a 4 bolt brake flange. This includes the right and left brake assembly. The correct oil seal for your hubs is # 10-63, which has a 2.25 inch ID and a 3.376 inch OD.

    The 008-285-11 number you found on your existing Dexter hub does refer to the Dexter Trailer Hub and Drum # 8-285-11, however as you mentioned, this particular assembly uses 9/16 inch wheel studs. This is the case with all of our grease lubed hub and drum assemblies that are designed for 8,000 pound axles. We do have the Redline Trailer Hub and Drum Assembly # 8-285-10UC3-A, which will work as a replacement on your axle. This is an oil bath hub and drum that uses the same # 25580 inner...

  • Hub and Drum Replacement for Trailer with 8k Axles and 8 on 6.5 inch Bolt Pattern
    For brake assemblies you'd want the part # AKEBRK-8R that you referenced for the right hand side and part # AKEBRK-8L for the left hand side. Then for a hub that fits this, the 8k axle capacity, and the stud diameter you need of 5/8 inch the part # 8-285-10UC3-A would be what you'd want.

  • Replacement Oil Bath Hub Drum for 8 on 6-1/2 Bolt Pattern on 8,000 lb Axle
    The Trailer Hub and Drum Assembly - 8,000-lb Axles - 8 on 6-1/2 - Oil Bath # 8-285-10UC3-A is the replacement option we have. The only difference is the wheel studs are 5/8 inches instead or the 9/16 inch wheel studs of your current hub. This comes with the lug nuts you need as well, so it will be an easy swap and will fit your wheels.

  • Oil Bath Hub Installation and Operation for 8,000 lbs Dual Axles
    Oil bath hubs like the Dexter Trailer Idler Hub Assembly # 008-399-93 for 8K axles or the hub/drum version # 8-285-10UC3-A simply soak the bearings in oil to keep them lubricated. Dexter bought out AL-KO years ago after they partnered for a long time. The center cap screws on as you stated and has an o-ring to prevent leaking. The cap just needs to be secure so you don't overtighten and damage the threads causing leakage. The center plug allows you to keep the cap in place and add oil...

  • Can Standard Lug Nuts be Used With the Taskmaster TA69VR?
    The Taskmaster Provider 215/75R17.5 Radial Tire w/ 17-1/2" Solid Center Wheel - Offset - 8 on 6-1/2 - LR H # TA69VR is designed to be used with and requires the use of flange nuts instead of the standard conical style lug nuts. Typically an 8,000 pound axle will use 5/8"-18 studs as the 1/2"-20 stud will usually denote a hub/drum that will be used on up to a 7,000 pound axle. With that being said, I recommend upgrading your hub/drum to go with this tire and wheel set-up. If you have brakes...

  • Replacement Oil Bath Hub and Drum Assembly for 8K Dexter Axle
    If just the spindle is damaged then you could probably get away with just replacing the spindle, but if the axle is damaged then you'll to replace the whole axle. If you aren't sure how much is damaged then you might want to have a shop look at your trailer just to make sure you have a safe setup. We do have replacement hub/drum assemblies that use the oil bath setup but for spindles and an axle that large you'll need to have a shop place that order for you. For the hub/drums you'll need...

  • Needing Replacement Brake Drums With 5/8 Inch Wheel Studs on 8,000 Lbs Axles
    The brake drums that we carry for the 8,000 lbs axles come in two types, grease or oil bath style. The drums that have the 5/8 inch wheel studs, like # 8-285-10UC3-A, are for the oil bath style drums.The grease lubed drums, like # AKHD-865-8-K, are using 9/16 inch wheel studs. If you have the 5/8 inch studs, then you will need # 8-285-10UC3-A. The drums will come with new lug nuts, bearings, and seals.

  • How To Find New Hub/Drums with Oil Baths for Trailer Axle
    In order to find the correct hub/drum for a trailer you'll need to know the axle capacity. This can most easily be found listed on the axle tag in the center of the beam. The Trailer Hub and Drum Assembly part # 8-285-10UC3-A for example is for 8,000 lb axles and uses an oil bath. It might be worthwhile to make sure the pilot hole on the wheel exceeds that of the hub as well. This one is 4-3/4". Please let me know the axle capacity so I can confirm the correct hub/drum.
