Axle Lengths
All Couplemate™ axles are custom-made to order. When you place an online order, one of our team members will contact you to confirm the desired axle length.
If you’re considering axle replacement, we recommend measuring from where one wheel bolts onto the corresponding point on the opposite side (commonly known as face-to-face). You’ll also want to grab your bearing details or weight capacity.
Not entirely sure?
If you’re unsure how to work out the exact length, that’s why we’re here!
We calculate the chassis width, tyre clearance, mudguards, and wheel backspace to ensure that the axle you receive is a proper fit.
Our team can chat Monday to Friday, 8:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m.

Frequently Asked Questions: 50mm Square Parallel Electric Brake Axle
What is the load rating for a 50mm Square Parallel Electric Brake Axle?
- Standard Rating: This axle profile typically has a load capacity of up to 1600kg per axle.
- Application: It is highly optimized for medium to heavy-duty configurations, commonly used in single-axle or tandem-axle trailer setups.
- Bearing Profile Impact: While a solid 50mm steel bar can structurally handle more weight, the overall rating is explicitly governed by the parallel machining profile at the stub ends.
- Dual Large Bearings: Parallel axles use the same large inner bearing cone and cup (typically L68149) in both the inner and outer positions.
- Load Distribution: Standard setups (like Slimline) feature a smaller outer bearing, whereas the parallel layout evenly disperses load pressure across the entire spindle.
- Durability: This design offers superior wear resistance and long-term durability under heavy towing conditions on rugged terrain.
- Axle Core: A heavy-duty, solid 50mm square natural steel or galvanized bar, pre-machined with parallel spindles.
- Braking Assemblies: Dual 10-inch electric backing plates featuring pre-installed brake shoes, magnets, and park brake levers.
- Drums & Bearings: Two matching 10-inch brake drums assembled with parallel bearings, grease seals, and dust caps.
- Weld Flanges: Integrated electric brake mounting flanges securely welded onto the axle tube to lock the backing plates into alignment.
- Common Stud Patterns: Readily manufactured in 5-Stud Ford (5×114.3mm PCD) as well as heavy-duty 5-Stud or 6-Stud Toyota Land Cruiser configurations.
- Measurement Requirements: Custom-built or ordered based on exact measurements from “Hub Face to Hub Face” or “Tip to Tip” length specifications.
- Chassis Clearances: Requires a minimum operational clearance (typically 155mm) measured from the hub face to the chassis side rails.
- Wire Thickness: Industry standards recommend using 4mm single-core automotive wire rated at 15A for single- and tandem-axle setups.
- Upgraded Wiring: Upgrading to a heavier 5mm wire is recommended for larger triple- or quad-axle applications to mitigate voltage drops.
- Controller Connectivity: Wire lines directly hook the electric backing plate magnets back to the vehicle’s cabin brake controller unit via the rear plug.
