Jockey Wheels

A jockey wheel is an essential trailer component that supports the trailer drawbar and allows you to safely manoeuvre, hitch and unhitch your trailer when it is not connected to a towing vehicle. Whether you are moving a box trailer, caravan, camper trailer or heavy-duty work trailer, the right jockey wheel makes positioning easier and safer.

At TforTrailer Parts, we supply a wide range of jockey wheels designed for Australian trailers and towing conditions. Our range includes fixed and swivel jockey wheels, solid and pneumatic tyre options, and models suited for light-duty through to heavy-duty applications. Swivel jockey wheels provide greater manoeuvrability and can be folded away when not in use, while fixed jockey wheels offer a simple and durable solution for lighter trailers.

Pneumatic jockey wheels are ideal for uneven ground, soft surfaces and off-road use, offering improved shock absorption and smoother movement. Solid jockey wheels require less maintenance and are well suited to sealed surfaces and workshop environments. Choosing the correct jockey wheel involves considering load rating, mounting style, wheel type and intended use.

Selecting a jockey wheel with a load capacity higher than your trailer’s drawbar weight improves safety, reduces strain and helps extend the lifespan of both the jockey wheel and trailer components.

All jockey wheels supplied by TforTrailer Parts are built from durable materials and designed to withstand repeated use in harsh Australian conditions. For a complete setup, consider pairing your jockey wheel with compatible mounting plates and brackets, stabilisers and other trailer accessories.
