1500 KG Trailer Stub Axle with 10-inch Electric Drum Brake – Replacement Assembly for Australian Utility & Cargo Trailers

1500 kg Trailer Stub Axle with 10″ Electric Drum Brake – Replacement Assembly for Australian Utility & Cargo Trailers

This 1500 kg trailer stub axle is a complete replacement hub assembly featuring a 10-inch electric drum brake, designed specifically for Australian utility trailers, cargo trailers and light-duty haulers. It delivers the same reliable braking performance and load capacity as a full axle — but at a significantly lower cost with much faster and easier replacement when service is needed.

Unlike full-length axles that require complete disassembly of the trailer frame and suspension for replacement, this stub axle (half axle) can be removed and replaced independently. That means less downtime for your trailer, reduced labor costs for repair shops, and simpler inventory management for fleet operators.

Why Choose a Stub Axle Over a Full Axle?

• Lower cost — Uses less material and fewer components than a full axle assembly, reducing your upfront investment
• Easy replacement — Serviced individually without dismantling the entire axle or suspension; swap out in minutes, not hours
• Reduced downtime — Perfect for commercial fleets and rental operations where trailer availability is critical
• Simpler repairs — Replace just the worn stub axle rather than the entire axle assembly
• Compact inventory — Stock replacement stubs instead of multiple full axle sizes
• 1500 kg load capacity — Matches the rating of many full axles in its class
• 10″ electric drum brake — Proven braking technology, reliable and easy to maintain
• Black finish — Standard corrosion-resistant coating

Need a Complete Full Axle Instead?

While our stub axle offers significant cost and service advantages for many applications, some builds require a complete full axle assembly. At Mr Liu Axle, we also manufacture a range of full torsion axles and spring axles to match your trailer design:

• Galvanized Trailer Torsion Axle with Electric Drum Brake – 1000/1500/2000/2500 kg — A complete galvanised torsion axle with electric drum brake, available in four load ratings with full hot-dip zinc coating for maximum corrosion resistance. Choose this if your trailer design calls for an integrated torsion suspension and full axle beam.
• Trailer Spring Axle – 1000/2000 kg — A traditional leaf spring axle for utility and cargo trailers. The classic choice for builders who prefer leaf spring suspension over torsion, with proven durability and easy parts availability.

Contact our team and we will help you determine whether a stub axle (half axle) or a full axle (torsion or spring) is the better fit for your trailer model and operating conditions.
