Precision sealed bearings eliminate any grease slinging onto the bottom of your rudder and keep the hub much more resistant to dirt accumulation. Not to mention, you save a full pound of weight.

- 6061-t6 aircraft aluminum hub
- 65 durometer SBR rubber tire
- 5-1/2″ Diameter X 1-1/2″ wide at tread
- Hub width: 2.1″
- 3/8″ axle

- Weighs only 25 ounces
- Looks great!

Excellent prompt service and communication!
handles great
I liked this new lightweight tail wheel so much that
I added the upgraded fork as well along with the stainless steel axel. Not only does it look great ,my RV7 taxis better and the takeoff roll seems more stable.
Needed a new tail wheel, fits and and finish as expected. Much lighter then the original Van’s type, and better looking.
Just as advertised, excellent product.
