Trailer Axle Shaft Spring Axles with 2000-2200lbs 4 lug or 5 lug Hub
Product Features
Trailer coupling device refers to the axle used to connect a trailer (or trailer) to a towing vehicle (or front vehicle). The trailer axle is usually composed of one or more roller bearings, which are used to support the weight of the trailer and transmit the power of the towing vehicle to the trailer.
The trailer axle is usually installed on the rear axle of the tractor, with one axle connected to the tractor's drive axle and the other axle connected to the trailer. This connection allows the trailer to follow the tractor at different speeds and travel under different road and load conditions.

Trailer axle type
Trailer axles are usually divided into two different types: spring axles and torsion axles. Although these two types of axles perform the same basic work, the way they suspend and buffer trailer loads is completely different.
Spring shaft
The function of the spring axle is to use stacked metal plate springs located below or above the axle beam to support the weight of the trailer. The spring shaft is available in single axis, double axis, and three axis configurations. In both dual and triple trailers, the leaf springs are connected through an equalizer. Equalizer helps to distribute the weight of the trailer more evenly across all axles. Spring axles are common on all brands and models of trailers because they are more cost-effective than torque.

Safety precautions before maintaining trailer axles
Before delving into the maintenance of trailer axles, you should remember the following items. If you are not aware of these things, you may cause serious damage to people near the vehicle and even the products behind the trailer. To give just a few examples, the steps to maintain the trailer axle brakes
The design of the trailer axle is to carry a large amount of load. That's why it's necessary to maintain them from time to time. However, trailer axle brakes are very fragile, and unless you have to face axle brake failure, you may not understand their importance. This could be catastrophic.
After driving a trailer for a long time, the axle brakes must be checked elsewhere to ensure the vehicle's functionality. What you may be interested in is that the axle of a trailer is one of the few movable components of the trailer, and if they are not properly maintained, it may cause many problems for the trailer's movement.
In other aspects, in order to have effective trailer axle brakes, it is necessary to remember the following points:
Ensure that the axle is always clean
The moving parts of the axle should always be kept clean. This is not to say that due to prolonged driving, the axle cannot accommodate dust, but rather the accumulated dust and debris can affect the function of the axle.
Forced water can be used in the hose to reduce the accumulation of dirt around the shaft area.
Clean bearings
To properly clean the bearings around the trailer axle, make sure to remove the wheels from the trailer axle and then remove the hub to properly clean the bearings. You should be aware that depending on your usage of the trailer, solvent cleaning of the bearings is necessary from time to time.
When fixing the wheel hub and bearings, please ensure that they are properly lubricated to prevent damage due to motion friction.
Lubricating the axle
When performing regular maintenance, it is also necessary to lubricate the axles of the trailer. You should note that axle maintenance can ensure the durability of the trailer itself. It also helps to prevent friction around the moving parts of the trailer axle.
