Overview
The P-AX13-7672-P-N is a heavy-duty braked trailer axle rated to 1,300 kg (1.3 Tonne), supplied as an OEM part for Brian James Trailers — likely manufactured by AL-KO or Knott, who supply the running gear for their range. The part number encodes the axle type, load capacity, and engineering dimensions, making it straightforward to cross-reference against your trailer's chassis plate or axle identification tag.
Part Number Breakdown
- P-AX: Identifies the component as a Trailer Axle
- 13: Denotes the load capacity — this is a 1,300 kg (1.3 Tonne) capacity axle
- 7672: Refers to the axle profile or internal spacing — typically the "Overhanging" or "Shoulder" width of the axle beam, designed to fit specific trailer chassis. The 7672 dimension represents a wider profile compared to the closely related 7650, 7652, 7660, and 7662 variants, suited to specific Connect 476 chassis configurations requiring a broader axle beam
- P-N: Indicates a specific configuration — likely referring to the Pitched (braked) setup with a Nylon bushing or specific bearing seal type
Visual Reference & Axle Design
These axles are torsion-beam style, meaning they use internal rubber cords for suspension rather than leaf springs. This provides the smooth ride and self-damping characteristics Brian James Trailers are known for — no separate shock absorbers required, and reduced maintenance over the life of the trailer.

Identifying Your Axle
To confirm this is the correct axle, locate the identification tag at the centre of your current axle tube. Cross-reference the part number or ETI number with a local Brian James parts dealer to verify the exact width profile and configuration before ordering.
Maintenance Tips
- Brake Adjustment: These axles typically use a 17mm bolt on the back of the hub for brake shoe adjustment
- Wheel Bolt Torque: Ensure wheel bolts are torqued to 110Nm – 120Nm for standard M12 bolts
- Bearing Type: These are usually sealed-for-life bearings. If you hear a grumbling sound or feel play in the wheel, the entire hub/bearing unit generally needs to be replaced — they cannot be regreased
What's Included
- Complete braked axle assembly
- Brake drum assemblies (both sides)
- Note: Please confirm with us if you require individual sub-components such as brake cables or wheel bearing kits
