FAQs

What is the maximum weight this jockey wheel can support?

The maximum load capacity for this jockey wheel and clamp assembly is 136 KG.

What is the diameter of the jockey wheel tube?

The jockey wheel tube has a diameter of 48mm.

Are the tyres solid or air-filled?

The tyres are air-filled, with a width of 85mm and a diameter of 260mm.

Can I replace the tyres if they get damaged?

Yes, the tyres are replaceable. You would need to find replacement tyres with the specified dimensions (85mm x 260mm) and appropriate valve type.

What does 'Bright Zinc Plated' mean for the finish?

It's a protective coating applied to resist rust. However, the process can sometimes result in minor cosmetic blemishes on the surface.

How do I adjust the height of the jockey wheel?

The height is adjusted by a pin mechanism. Remove the pin, slide the jockey wheel tube to the desired height, and reinsert the pin through the appropriate hole.

What is the distance between the mounting holes on the clamp?

The distance between the center of the holes on the clamp is 104mm.

Troubleshooting

Jockey wheel is difficult to move up or down.

Ensure the clamp bolts are not over-tightened, restricting the jockey wheel tube's movement. Check for any obstructions. Clean the tube and clamp interior.

Clamp does not fit securely.

Verify that your trailer's drawbar tube is 48mm in diameter. Check if the clamp mounting holes align with your trailer's chassis mounting points.

Tyres appear flat or lose air.

Inspect tyres for punctures. Inflate to the recommended pressure if slightly deflated. If persistent leakage occurs, the inner tube may need repair or replacement.

Jockey wheel wobbles during use.

Ensure all clamp bolts are securely tightened. Check that the jockey wheel tube is fully inserted and locked in place. Inspect the wheel bearings for damage.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Significantly improves trailer maneuverability, especially on difficult terrain.
  • Dual wheel design enhances stability and reduces the effort required for adjustments.
  • Robust construction supports a high load capacity (136 KG).
  • Zinc plating offers decent protection against rust.
  • Adjustable height accommodates various trailer setups.

Cons

  • The zinc plating finish may have cosmetic blemishes.
  • Requires a 48mm tube diameter fitting; not universally compatible.
  • Air tyres may require occasional inflation.
  • The clamp mechanism's specific dimensions (104mm hole center to center) might not fit all drawbars without modification.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup:

  1. Position the clamp onto the trailer's drawbar at the desired height.
  2. Secure the clamp using appropriate bolts through the 10.5MM diameter holes, ensuring the center-to-center distance of 104MM matches your drawbar mounting points.
  3. Insert the jockey wheel tube into the clamp.
  4. Adjust the jockey wheel to the required height using the pin mechanism.

Compatibility:

  • Primarily designed for trailers and caravans with a 48mm outer diameter drawbar tube.
  • Ensure the clamp mounting hole spacing (104MM center-to-center) is compatible with your trailer's chassis.

Care:

  • Periodically check tyre pressure and inflate if necessary.
  • Clean with a damp cloth. Avoid abrasive cleaners.
  • Inspect the zinc plating for any significant damage and consider a protective coating if rust appears.
