Features to know about

Built to Handle Heavy Loads: Fits 6,000 lb E-Z Lube Axles

When you’re hauling or restoring a trailer that carries real weight, this Dexter hub-and-drum assembly keeps things solid and smooth. It’s built for 6,000-lb E-Z Lube axles with a #11 or #12 spindle and has a weight capacity of 3,000 lbs per hub. The 12" x 2" drum provides a solid surface for brake shoes, whether you’re running electric or hydraulic brakes. With sturdy iron construction and a 6 on 5-1/2" bolt pattern, it’s a dependable choice for everything from regular runs to heavy-duty jobs.

Smooth Braking Performance: 12" x 2" Drum Surface

Consistent braking matters most when you’re towing in unpredictable conditions. The 12"-diameter, 2"-wide drum gives reliable contact for your brake shoes, translating to steady, controlled stops. That even surface area helps reduce uneven wear, extending the life of both the hub and your brake components.

Quick Bearing Maintenance: E-Z Lube-Compatible Grease Cap

No need to pull the hub apart to keep the bearings in good shape. The included E-Z Lube-compatible grease cap lets you remove the rubber plug and add grease directly through the zerk fitting on the spindle. Grease flows to both inner and outer bearings, keeping everything lubricated and helping to prevent corrosion. It’s clean, simple, and saves a ton of time between trips.

Ready to Install: All Key Parts Included

Everything you need to mount and finish the job comes in the box—inner bearing (25580) and race (25520), outer bearing (15123) and race (15245), grease seal RG06-070 (2.250" ID, 3.376" OD), E-Z Lube grease cap, 1/2" wheel bolts, and lug nuts. Each piece is matched and sized right for a precise fit, so you spend less time hunting down extras and more time getting your trailer back on the road.

Built for Long Service: Reliable Dexter Quality

Dexter’s iron hub-and-drum assemblies are known for durability and straightforward installation. This one fits wheels from 14-1/2", 15", 16", and 16-1/2" diameters and has 1-1/4" long wheel studs. With pre-greased bearings and a standard-grade build meant for regular towing conditions, it’s a practical, long-lasting solution for keeping your trailer rolling smoothly.

Determining Bolt Pattern

1. Count the lug holes

Look at the wheel hub or the back of the wheel and count how many lug holes there are(also called bolt holes).

Common configurations include: 4-lug, 5-lug, 6-lug and 8 lug

2a. For even lug counts (4-lug, 6-lug, 8-lug)

Measure from the center of one lug hole directly across to the center of the hole opposite it.

Center to Center
Common configurations: 4 on 4", 6 on 5.5", 8 on 6.5"

2b. For odd lug counts (5-lug)

Measure from the center of one lug hole to the outer edge of the hole directly across (not center-to-center since there's no directly opposite hole).

Center to Outside Edge
Common configurations: 5 on 4.5" (most popular), 5 on 5", 5 on 4.75", 5 on 5.5"

The box arrived damaged and open. The grease cap was off and a bearing fell off. I’m not sure what else fell out during transit.

Exactly what I ordered, fast service. Representative was very helpful making sure I got the part.



by:

fit perfectly after verifying some measurements on the spindle with calipers.



by:

The kit had all the necessary hardware and the pre-lubed bearings made installation a snap. I did need a 1 1/2 inch socket to remove the hub nut on one wheel (that had been overtightened recently by a mechanic who wasn't too familiar with the setup) and the socket was necessary to get the bearings on each hub completed seated before loosening the nuts back to finger-tight (per instructions to allow for heating expansion). Still, it was much easier to replace my old hubs (once I bought the 1 1/2 inch socket) than I expected.



by:

These were a direct replacement for my camper trailer. Etrailers customer service helped me get the correct parts for my camper which made my project a breeze.

Well mounted and easy to assemble. Really recommend. Good material for my trailer 14 feet dumper trailer6 to 7 tons.

  • Replacement Brakes for 2022 Keystone Cougar 316RLS
    Hey Rick! The correct replacement brakes are the Dexter Nev-R-Adjust Electric Trailer Brakes # 23-458-459. When you say rotors do you mean the hub and drum assembly? If that is correct, I will need some additional information to find the right hub and drum assembly. Can you tell me your current bolt pattern (it is either 6 on 5-1/2 or 8 on 6-1/2) and send me serial number off your axle tag? The grease seal varies within the same axle capacity so that is the only way to be sure. If you can...

  • Replacement Hub and Drum Assembly for 6 Axle
    Hi Connor, are you wanting to swap out the bolt pattern or keep it the same? The # 8-219-9UC3-A will fit assuming your spindle uses a 2.25" inner diameter (ID) seal and you want to switch to oil bath. However, you will have to use different wheels to match the 8 on 6-1/2 bolt pattern. If you want to keep the 6 on 5-1/2 bolt pattern you have now, and you're using grease with a 2.25" ID grease seal, the # K08-201-9B will also work. If you want the same bolt pattern and have a 2.125" ID...

  • Replacement Brakes and Hub/Drums For a 2007 Airstream Safari Trailer With 5,000LB Dexter Axles
    Thank you for the images. This shows me you currently have the Dexter Electric Trailer Brake Kit # 23-105-106 on your 2007 Airstream Safari. I recommend upgrading to the Dexter Nev-R-Adjust Electric Trailer Brake Kit # 23-458-459 as this will give you a more consistent brake feel as the shoes wear. It also eliminates the need to adjust the brakes every 3,000 miles. If your hubs are worn beyond their serviceable limit then you will need to replace them. We have 2 possible hub/drum assemblies...

  • Meaning of MTI Number On Dexter Hub and Drum Assembly
    The MTI number on your 8-201 hubs is simply a casting number. It does not indicate any information about the hubs or have anything to do with the actual part number. I'm not surprised to hear you have different outer bearings between the two since there are variations of the 8-201. However, both should have the same inner diameter of 1.25" so it won't make a difference for fitment. For example, the # 8-201-5UC3-EZ for 5,200 lb axles and # K08-201-9B for 6,000 lb axles are both 8-201 hubs...
