Lippert6,000 Lb Axle RatingPre-AssembledLippert 814202 12" Brake Hub Assembly -- 6 on 5.5" Bolt Pattern, 1/2" Stud

A direct-replacement brake hub for Lippert-equipped trailer axles rated at 6,000 lbs. Solid iron construction, pre-packed with bearing cones, seals, and grease -- ready to bolt on without a trip to a shop press. Fits 14.5-inch to 16.5-inch wheels with a standard 6 on 5.5-inch bolt circle.

Drop-In Replacement for Lippert 6,000 Lb Trailer Axles

The Lippert 814202 is engineered as an OEM-spec replacement for trailer axles rated at 6,000 lbs -- the axle weight rating common to single-axle travel trailers, fifth wheels, and utility trailers in the 10,000-14,000 lb GVWR range. The hub ships fully assembled with bearing cones, bearing cups, grease seals, and packed grease, so you can complete the swap roadside or in your driveway without specialized bearing-press equipment.

The solid iron drum provides the thermal mass and rigidity needed for consistent electric brake performance. Lippert rates the 814202 for 12-inch brake drum diameter, matching the standard 12-inch electric brake assemblies used on their 6K axle lines. The 1/2-inch lug studs are the industry-standard size for this class of trailer wheel.

Pre-Assembled Ready to Install

Bearing cones, seals, and packed grease are included and installed at the factory -- no bench work required before mounting.

Solid Iron Construction

Cast iron hub provides the heat dissipation and structural rigidity required for reliable electric brake operation under load.

Correct Bolt Pattern

6 on 5.5-inch bolt circle (5.5-inch measured diameter across the bolt circle) matches the most common 6-lug trailer wheel standard in this weight class.

Broad Wheel Compatibility

Accepts wheel sizes from 14.5 inches to 16.5 inches, covering the standard range used on tandem- and single-axle RV trailers.

Factory Pre-Packed: This hub arrives with bearing cones already seated, grease seals installed, and cavity packed with wheel bearing grease. Verify grease type meets your axle manufacturer spec before adding more; most Lippert axles call for NLGI Grade 2 bearing grease.
Bolt Pattern Note: "6 on 5.5" means 6 lug holes arranged on a 5.5-inch bolt circle diameter. This is sometimes listed as 6x5.5 or 6x139.7mm. Confirm your existing hub or wheel spec before ordering -- 6 on 5.5 and 6 on 5.5-inch are the same; 6 on 6.5-inch is a different, incompatible pattern used on heavier axles.
Axle Rating Match Required: This hub is rated for axles at 6,000 lbs. Do not install on axles with a higher or lower rating without verifying bearing bore, spindle diameter, and drum-to-magnet clearance against your axle spec sheet. Mixing hub and axle ratings can cause premature bearing failure or brake drag.
Maintenance Tip: After installation, re-torque lug nuts to wheel manufacturer spec after the first 50 miles. Inspect bearing pre-load and grease seal condition at each seasonal service or any time the trailer has been submerged (river crossing, flooding). Replace grease seals anytime the hub is removed from the spindle.

Important Information
  • This is a hub assembly only -- brake shoes, brake magnets, backing plates, and spindle nuts are NOT included and must be sourced separately.
  • Confirm your existing axle spindle diameter and bearing bore before installation; using an incompatible bearing bore on the spindle will damage the spindle and cause hub failure.
  • Rated for 6,000 lb axles only. Do not use on 7,000 lb or 8,000 lb axles -- those require a different hub with larger bearing sets.
  • Always use a torque wrench when installing lug nuts; trailer wheel studs in this class typically require 90-100 ft-lb torque (confirm with your wheel manufacturer).
  • Inspect the spindle for wear, scoring, or rust before installing a new hub -- a damaged spindle will destroy the new bearings.
  • Not intended for highway use beyond the axle GAWR -- exceeding the 6,000 lb axle gross axle weight rating voids the warranty and creates a safety hazard.
