Will The Double Lip Seals in Bearing Kit # BK3-300 Work on a Horse Trailer
Question:
Will the seals in the BK3-300 kit work on a horse trailer axle? I think I read they are double lipped seals usually for marine use,but wondered if they would also work on that axle..I also ordered the single lipped seals too.

Expert Reply:
Yes the double lip grease seals in the TruRyde Bearing Kit, # BK3-300, will work on your horse trailer axle as long as it is the correct size seal for your spindle. I have attached a photo showing how to measure the inner and outer diameter of the seal and where to measure on your spindle to make sure it will fit.
The double lip seals are usually found on marine applications because the outer and inner lips make it a much more effective and durable seal when the wheels are going in and out of water. They are an upgrade from the single lip seals and will have a spring inside that helps keep grease in and dirt and water out.
They can still be used on other trailers like your horse trailer as long as the inner and outer diameters are correct for your spindle and hub.
