The grease cap on this hub-and-drum assembly is specially designed to work with your Dexter E-Z Lube axle to make lubricating bearings quick and easy. Just remove the plug on the grease cap, attach a grease gun to the zerk fitting on the end of the spindle, and inject the grease. It will flow easily to both inner and outer bearings. Not only does this make lubricating the bearings easy, but it also helps to prevent corrosion of the hub. This is because you can lubricate the bearings without the mess of taking apart the entire assembly.
The first number in the bolt pattern is the number of bolt holes. The second number denotes the diameter, in inches, of the circle on which the bolt holes sit.
On wheels with an even number of bolt holes, measure from the center of one bolt hole to the center of the hole directly across from it. (Example: 8 on 6-1/2 means 8 bolt holes with 6-1/2" from the center of one hole to the center of another on the opposite side.)
To determine the bolt-circle diameter on wheels with an odd number of bolt holes, measure from the center of any bolt hole to the point halfway between the two bolt holes directly across from the first. (Example: 5 on 4-1/2 means 5 bolt holes with 4-1/2" measured to a point halfway between the opposite bolt holes.)
Measuring the distance (D) from the center of one bolt hole on the wheel to the center of a bolt hole right next to it can also help to determine the bolt pattern.

Hello everybody, this is Jeff at etrailer.com. Today, we're gonna take a look at this Dexter 12 1/4 inch Trailer Hub and Drum Assembly for 8,000 pound E-Z Lube Axles, has an 8 on 6 1/2 inch bolt pattern. Now, this trailer hub and drum assembly provides the surface area for your brake shoes to grip when your brakes are activated. You can see right here is where the brake shoes will be activated. If you use electric brakes, this is where the brake magnet will be applied, so it is compatible with both electric and hydraulic drum brakes. Does include everything shown here on the table, comes with the inner and the outer bearings, comes with the bearing races, and those are pre-installed into the hub.
Basically, if you look here, you can see here's the outer bearing race that the bearing will ride in, and if we go to the back, you can see here's the inner bearing race. Does come with the grease seal, comes with E-Z Lube grease cap, comes with the spindle nut, the spindle nut retainer, and then you can see eight of these 5/8 inch by 18 size 90 degree cone lug nuts. Now, this assembly is for E-Z Lube axles, which are axles that have a grease zerk fitting that's on the end of the spindle, and it allows you to pump grease into the spindle for easy lubrication of your wheel bearings without having to remove the complete hub and drum assembly. And what makes that possible is if you look at this E-Z Lube compatible grease cap that goes in the outside right here, what this allows you to do is it has this rubber cover on it, if you just pop out the center black rubber cover, that'll let you gain access to that zerk fitting, and then you can pump the grease in there without having to completely remove the whole hub and drum assembly. Now, this is a sturdy iron construction, the hub and drum are made in the USA.
Few specs again, this one fits an 8,000 pound E-Z Lube trailer axle with the number 42 spindles. The drum dimension on this is the inside dimension, so if we get a ruler, we go straight across, inside to inside, it's gonna be right at 12 1/4 inches. The width, it's gonna be right at four inches. This is designed to work with a 12 1/4 inch by 3 3/8 inch brake assembly. Bolt pattern we mentioned, you can see the studs here, it is an 8 on 6 1/2 inch bolt pattern, the wheel stud diameter is 5/8 of an inch, and the weight capacity on this one assembly is 4,000 pounds, so when this is used with one on the other side of the axle, it meets the 8,000 pound axle capacity.
But that should do it for the review on the Dexter 12 1/4 inch Trailer Hub and Drum Assembly for 8,000 pound E-Z Lube Axles..
