Not just a loose hub, this cast iron tail wheel piece for a rotary cutter ships with its axle bolt and nylon lock nut. It fits any four-bolt rim on a cutter that uses a one inch axle bolt.
This is a straightforward repair part for a worn tail wheel on a Bush Hog-style cutter, with greasable, replaceable bushings that extend its service life. Bolt-hole spacing is stated as measured around the circle, which is easy to get wrong when checking your old hub.
Who it's for
Farm and property owners repairing the tail wheel of a rotary cutter with a four-bolt rim and one inch axle bolt. A different rim pattern or axle size means this hub will not match.
Pros and cons
- Cast iron construction

- Greasable with replaceable bushings
- Fits many cutter makes
- Four-bolt rims only
- Heavy cast iron piece
- Brand fields are inconsistent

Performance notes
The hub carries the tail wheel's load on the axle bolt, with knock-in bushings that wear instead of the hub bore. Regular grease stops those bushings seizing, and replacing them is what restores a worn hub.
