Hub Restoration In Calgary, AB

If hub issues are slowing down your fleet in Calgary, AB, turn to Trailerfix West. We offer professional hub restoration services that ensure smooth operations and enhance vehicle longevity.

Process Of Hub Restoration

Disassembly and Cleaning: The hub is disassembled, removing components like bearings, seals, and the brake drum. All parts are thoroughly cleaned to remove dirt, grease, and debris.

Inspection: Each component is meticulously inspected for wear, damage, or cracks. Bearings are checked for smoothness and proper play. Races (tracks where bearings fit) are examined for wear or pitting.

Replacement of Worn Parts: Any worn-out or damaged components like bearings, seals, or races are replaced with new ones.

Resurfacing or Replacement of Brake Drums: If the brake drum has excessive wear or warping, it might be resurfaced to restore a smooth braking surface. In severe cases, a complete replacement might be necessary.

Reassembly and Lubrication: The cleaned and inspected components are reassembled with fresh grease or lubricant following the manufacturer's specifications. Proper torque is applied to all fasteners to ensure secure assembly.

Hub Components & Repairs For Trailers

Don't underestimate the vital role of a trailer's wheel hub. This compact workhorse connects the wheel to the axle, allowing for smooth rotation. Inside, bearings distribute weight and minimize friction, ensuring safe and efficient travel. We also offer various wheel hub components such as:

• Brake lining
• Brake shoe
• Return spring 
• Bake plate 
• Wheel cylinder

How Do I Know What Hub I Need For My Trailer?

To determine the correct hub for your trailer, you need to consider several factors: the weight capacity of the trailer, the size and type of the axle, and the bolt pattern of the wheels. Check the trailer's specifications for axle capacity to ensure the hub matches this requirement. Consulting a professional or referencing the manufacturer’s guide can provide precise guidance and ensure you select the appropriate hub for your needs.
