This hub-and-drum assembly mounts on a trailer axle and gives the brake shoes a surface to grip when the brake is applied. It works with electric and hydraulic drum brakes. It fits 5.2K and 6K Dexter E-Z Lube and etrailer Easy Grease axles.
The assembly is made of iron. The drum has zinc-enriched paint for durability, and the bolts are zinc-finished to resist corrosion. It comes pre-greased with lithium complex, multipurpose grease, so the bearings do not need to be packed before installation.
The grease cap works with E-Z Lube and Easy Grease axles. Remove the rubber plug, attach a grease gun to the zerk fitting on the end of the spindle, and inject grease. The grease flows to both the inner and outer bearings, so the hub does not need to be taken apart. The assembly is QAI and CSA certified, and it has been tested for stopping distance and braking performance.
