We do have traditional axles like the Dexter Trailer Axle Beam # T3584F-EZ-8974 which I linked for you, and the right one is going to depend on the length you need as well as the capacity, though there is a better option which I recommend that doesn't require a specific length, the Timbren Axle-Less Suspension System.

The Timbren axle-less suspension systems are simply bolted or welded so you do not have to worry about finding an axle that meets any specific measurements. They also offer you an improved ride compared to a traditional through-axle because the Timbrens work independently so if there is a bump on one side of the road it won't rattle your entire trailer. The Timbren system also gives you a better ride because they have progressive springs that absorb shock better than a traditional axle.

For the Timbren system you only need to know the capacity your trailer requires, such as the Timbren Axle-Less Trailer Suspension System with Hubs - 5 on 4-1/2 - 2,000 lbs # A20RS545.

I have added a link to a video review of these systems as well as a link to our entire selection of them. If you get back to me with more info about the capacity I can try and find the best one for you as well.
