This hub-and-drum assembly is for trailers with 5.2K and 6K Dexter E-Z Lube and etrailer Easy Grease axles. It works with electric or hydraulic drum brakes. The drum gives the brake shoes surface area to grip when the brake is activated.
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 a lithium complex, multipurpose grease, so the bearings don't need to be packed before installation.
The grease cap works with E-Z Lube and Easy Grease axles. To lubricate, remove the rubber plug and attach a grease gun to the zerk fitting on the end of the spindle. The grease flows to both the inner and outer bearings, so the hub doesn't need to be taken apart. The assembly is QAI and CSA certified and has been tested for braking performance.
