Extended Product Information

FAQs

Is this wheel pneumatic or solid?

This is a solid rubber tyre, meaning it does not require air and is puncture-proof.

What is the bore diameter?

The central hole diameter is 20.4 mm.

Can I use this wheel on a motorcycle trailer?

Yes, provided your current jockey wheel assembly utilizes a 20.4 mm axle and the tyre size matches your clearance requirements.

Does it come with an axle or mounting hardware?

No, the product is the wheel unit only and does not include the axle, bolts, or mounting brackets.

How do I measure for compatibility?

Measure the diameter of your current axle to ensure it is close to 20 mm, and verify that the hub length of 57 mm will fit between your current bracket arms.

Is the rim prone to rusting?

The rim is treated with corrosion protection; however, we recommend regular cleaning to maintain its finish, especially if used in damp or salty environments.

Troubleshooting

Wheel does not rotate freely

Check the central mounting bolt or pin to ensure it is not overtightened, which can create excess friction against the hub.

Excessive vibration during movement

Ensure the wheel is mounted squarely on the shaft and that there is no debris lodged between the tyre and the frame.

Axle fitment is loose

The bore is designed for a 20.4 mm shaft. If your shaft is smaller, a spacer may be required, or the fitment is incorrect for your application.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Solid tyre design removes the need for inflation
  • Corrosion-resistant steel construction for longevity
  • Standardized 200mm size fits most common trailer assemblies
  • Low-maintenance build

Cons

  • Requires specific 20.4 mm axle compatibility
  • Solid rubber material may have less suspension cushioning than pneumatic tyres
  • Does not include mounting brackets or hardware

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To install this wheel, first ensure the existing jockey wheel shaft is clean and free of debris. Slide the new wheel onto the shaft and secure it using your existing cotter pin or bolt assembly, ensuring it is locked in place through the 20.4 mm central hole. The central hub length is 57 mm, so ensure your shaft has sufficient clearance. For maintenance, periodically inspect the tyre for deep cuts or heavy wear. Although the rim is corrosion-protected, cleaning the assembly after exposure to saltwater or harsh road chemicals will significantly extend the service life of the metal components.
