How To Identify Replacement Bearings & Races

Question:

How to ID and purchase replacement bearings and races for a 2009 HandH twin axle trailer. The ID on the face of the bearing is almost impossible to read but looks like: TRP X CZ.

Since you are deciding to replace your bearings, I will be happy to help you choose a kit. I will need to know the weight capacity of your axle. I tried to look up the letters you gave me "TRP X CZ" but I did not come up with a match. I believe "TRP" is a bearing manufacturer.

If you are unable to read the numbers from the bearings, use a digital caliper like # PTW80157 and take some measurements of your spindle for me. Getting you the right bearing sizes is extremely important for your trailer to function properly.

I've attached an image that shows how to measure and identify them. As well as a help article on replacing them that may be helpful to you.
