200 lb 160mm Jockey Wheel with Rubber Wheel & Metal Rim | LF-J8

The Dimensions and Finish That Can Be Specified Directly

Keep the Published Range as a Range

LF-J8 is specified with a travel distance of 120–130 mm. The page does not replace that range with a 125 mm midpoint or present the 10 mm spread as a manufacturing tolerance.

For an OEM drawing or replacement check, confirm the current production dimension and its measurement reference before using travel as an interchangeability criterion.

Rubber Wheel and Metal Rim Are Verified—Tyre Construction and Bearings Are Not

The wheel is specified as 160 mm in diameter and 40 mm wide, with a rubber tyre and metal rim. Those dimensions are useful for checking ground clearance, local packaging and replacement-wheel envelope.

The current data does not define solid or pneumatic construction, rim alloy, wheel bore, axle size, bearing type or a permissible rolling load. Those items should not be inferred from wheel size alone.

A Compact Assembly Still Needs a Complete Load and Mounting Check

The 2.2 kg net weight is useful for product comparison, packaging and handling, but it does not define the tube wall thickness, mounting strength or service-life class.

The trailer-side structure and attachment method remain separate engineering inputs from the jockey wheel’s own catalog weight.

Zinc-Plated Outer Tube with Clear-Zinc Inner Tube

LF-J8 specifies zinc plating on the outer tube and clear zinc on the inner tube. These are plated-finish descriptions and should not be relabelled as hot-dip galvanizing.

GOODIN’sElectro-Galvanizing vs Hot-Dip Galvanizing guide provides further process context for buyers defining coating thickness, finish appearance and environmental acceptance criteria.

Close the Mounting, Handle and Installed-Height Details Before Approval

The current summary confirms capacity, travel range, wheel size/construction, tube finishes and net weight. Handle style, tube diameter, mounting arrangement, installed height range, wheel bore and dynamic manoeuvring limit still require LF-J8-specific production data or verified product imagery.

Questions to Resolve Before Ordering LF-J8

Production Visibility for OEM and Distributor Buyers

Compact Trailer-Front Support Where a 200 lb Rating and 160 × 40 mm Wheel Fit the Job

LF-J8 should be matched to the actual vertical load carried at the jockey-wheel position, the required 120–130 mm adjustment range and the available wheel/mounting envelope.

Because the current brief does not define the mounting arrangement or overall installed heights, those items remain part of the application approval rather than assumptions made from the wheel size.

Match the 200 lb Published Capacity to the Actual Support Load

The catalog does not identify the 200 lb value as a static, lifting, nose-load or manoeuvring rating. Do not select LF-J8 from total trailer weight alone, and do not reuse the 200 lb number as a rolling-wheel capacity without separate documentation.

Check the Actual Surface Before Relying on a Compact 40 mm-Wide Wheel

The known wheel envelope is 160 mm diameter × 40 mm width. Ground hardness, joints, edges, slopes and local obstacles can materially change rolling effort and stability, so the intended surface should be included in the application review.

Confirm Whether the 120–130 mm Travel Range Reaches the Required Positions

Travel is not the same as overall installed height. Use the current LF-J8 production drawing to verify the actual high and low positions, especially when replacing a jockey wheel with a different tube or clamp arrangement.

Do Not Assume a Clamp Size or Attachment Method from the Wheel Diameter

LF-J8’s current specification does not publish the tube diameter, clamp, bracket or mounting hardware. Confirm those dimensions from model-specific production data.

If the intended trailer uses a clamp-mounted arrangement, GOODIN’s Trailer Jack Clamp Guide provides useful background on U-bolts, clamp plates, through-bolts and structural-member selection without implying that a particular clamp is supplied with LF-J8.

Define Corrosion Requirements Beyond the Words “Zinc Plated”

The supplied finish is zinc plated outer tube with clear-zinc inner tube. For outdoor, coastal or other controlled environments, specify the required plating process, thickness, passivation/sealer and acceptance test separately rather than assuming an unpublished service-life rating.

What to Send with the LF-J8 RFQ

Provide actual support load, trailer drawbar/frame dimensions, required mounting method, minimum and maximum support positions, intended ground surface, corrosion requirement, quantity and destination market.

If the required tube, clamp, mounting or travel specification differs from the published LF-J8 brief, GOODIN’s custom trailer jack program can be used to define the requested configuration separately.
