When you’re hooking up a loaded grain cart or heading down the highway with a full tank sprayer behind you, those wheel studs better be doing their job. When you’re pulling a loaded grain cart, operating on hillsides, or pushing the limits with a heavy disc, those studs are all that’s keeping your wheels attached. This Grade 8 stud is built for the heavy-duty work that comes with 5,200 and 6,000 pound hub assemblies—the kind of setup you need when the loads get serious.
What You’re Getting
- Grade 8 steel construction with yellow zinc plating to resist corrosion and hold up through seasons of use
- 1/2″-20 thread size provides strong engagement with standard lug nuts
- 2-1/4 inch under head length gives proper thread engagement for secure mounting
- Knurled area measures 0.656 inch for reliable press-fit installation in hub holes
- Direct replacement for pressed-in stud applications on medium-duty trailers and equipment
Built for Real Farm Work
This stud fits equipment trailers, grain carts, and other implements that run on 5,200 to 6,000 pound hub assemblies. Whether you’re moving seed to the planter, hauling grain to the elevator, or pulling tillage tools across the field, this is the stud that keeps your wheels securely attached when the work gets tough and the loads get heavy.
Made to Last
This replacement stud uses proper grade steel that’s heat-treated for the right balance of strength and flexibility. The yellow zinc plating fights off rust and corrosion, while the Grade 8 rating means it won’t stretch or fail under the kind of loads these medium-duty hubs are designed to handle.
Installation Notes
You’ll need to remove the wheel and likely the brake drum or hub to press out the old stud and press in the new one. Never try to hammer in a new stud – use a proper press or the lug nut draw-in method with washers to protect the threads. The knurled section should press snugly into the hub hole for a secure fit that won’t work loose.
