Ø48mm Jockey Wheels (Single or Double 8" Wheel / 150kg Capacity)

Take the effort out of trailer hitching, leveling, and manual positioning with the Ø48mm Jockey Wheel Series. Engineered for light-to-medium utility trailers, luggage trailers, caravans, and boat trailers, this versatile jockey wheel series provides smooth mechanical winding leverage, dependable front-end tongue support, and effortless maneuvering across varied ground conditions.

Built around a rigid Ø48mm tubular steel shaft, this landing gear assembly delivers a dependable 150 kg maximum static load capacity. Available in two application-specific setups—an 8" (205mm) Single Wheel configuration providing a 300mm stroke, or an 8" (205mm) Double Wheel configuration providing a 230mm stroke—it lets owners and builders select between agile hard-surface steering and high-flotation stability on soft or unpaved terrain.

Key Features & Benefits:

• Even Weight Distribution: Spreads trailer tongue weight smoothly across the wheel assembly to prevent digging in, ensuring steady support and easier steering during manual maneuvering.

• 150 kg Static Nose-Weight Rating: Safely supports downforce loads up to 150 kg, making it an ideal choice for camping trailers, single-axle caravans, boat trailers, and utility haulers.

• Rigid Ø48mm Tubular Steel Shaft: High-strength structural steel tube resists shaft flex, binding, and distortion under full tongue loads.

• Smooth Internal Screw Drive: High-torque internal mechanical lead screw enables precise vertical leveling and low-effort raising and lowering without slipping or creeping.

• Puncture-Proof Solid Rubber Wheels: Equipped with 205mm (8") puncture-proof solid rubber tires mounted on heavy-duty steel rims to withstand curb scuffs, road debris, and prolonged static parking without flat-spotting.

• Standard Clamp Compatibility: Designed for seamless integration with standard 48mm trailer clamps, including the Burquip JCB48 heavy-duty cast clamp or JCC48 pressed steel clamp (available separately).

• Corrosion-Resistant Zinc Plating: High-durability bright zinc-plated finish guards the outer shaft, wheel yoke, and internal threads against moisture, road grit, salt air, and weathering.

Configuration Options:

1. Ø48mm Single Jockey Wheel (8" Single Wheel)

• Wheel Layout: Single 205mm (8") Solid Rubber Wheel on Steel Rim

• Lifting Stroke Length: 300 mm

• Best Suited For: Paved driveways, garage floors, concrete forecourts, and level tarmac where tight pivoting, agile direction changes, and maximum vertical stroke are prioritized.

2. Ø48mm Double Jockey Wheel (8" Double Wheel)

• Wheel Layout: Dual / Twin 205mm (8") Solid Rubber Wheels on Steel Rims

• Lifting Stroke Length: 230 mm

• Best Suited For: Soft grass, sand, mud, gravel, and unpaved campsites. The dual-wheel footprint doubles the surface contact area, preventing the nose from sinking and drastically improving traction when manually moving or steering heavy trailers across loose ground.
