Thoroughly Tested for Safety
This hub-and-drum assembly meets the requirements for certification by the Canadian Standards Association (CSA). The CSA creates standards, which when complied with ensure a safe and quality product. This assembly underwent extensive testing to measure stopping distances when braking. This assembly has also been tested by QAI for braking performance in a complete automotive setup and under real-world conditions to provide the most realistic scenario for the everyday driver.
E-Z Lube-Compatible Assembly for Simple Lubrication
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.
Determining the Bolt Pattern
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.
- If D = 2-5/8", then the bolt pattern is 5 on 4-1/2"
- If D = 2-3/4", then the bolt pattern is 5 on 4-3/4"
- If D = 3", then the bolt pattern is 5 on 5"
- If D = 3-1/4", then the bolt pattern is 5 on 5-1/2"

Hubs fit perfect and went on easily. My only suggestion would be not to pack everything in 2 boxes, it’s to heavy and I had dings on every hub and break assembly from being dropped due to the weight, should be packed in 4 boxes. 563020

I had a breakdown in the middle of nowhere on our camper no one had parts and could not help me. I did limp the camper to the national forest where we planned to camp. I called etrailer and Susan H matched our hub over the phone sight unseen. She was able to ship it to a cabin rental place in the Rocky Mountains. Hub was the same brand as factory. She was a life saver and got our family back on the road in 3 days. 548743

Replacing hubs and backing plates with brakes attached is a great way to go. Price and product quality was good. Bearings and seals installation was not difficult. Be sure to wear latex gloves when packing bearings with grease. Youtube has several instructional videos on packing bearings. Be sure to tighten the axle nut and back it off during hub installation several time to work the hub into place. 284690

I purchased a boat and a trailer, which had inoperable one axle surge brakes. I decided to switch to electric brakes, and apply brakes to both axles. I purchased 4 self adjusting brake assemblies and the kit for converting to the 7 plug connector. All the components were of excellent quality. The brakes work great, and I am able to control the level of braking for towing, and for backing down the boat launch ramp. 444835

Getting a decent replacement hub has been harder than need be. I've ordered hubs from 2 places and they were so inferior, out of round, mystery hole in side, and I threw them away rather than worry. I've ordered hubs directly from Alko and the bearings came loose in the box, leaving me wondering whether the bearing cage might have gotten bent bouncing around with the hub ... so I threw the bearings away. Etrailer's 3500 lb hub is good quality, and the bearings etc. were packed separately to reduce chance of damage. So "Yay" etrailer! Quality and care. 330728

This is my second order. I ordered for the rear axle first. The parts looked good. So ordered for the other axle. The seals are robust and double seal design. But the bearing are China bearings. Would have liked to seen timkin or the like but are serviceable. The break kit fit well and looks good. We will see how they do on my 2500 mile round trip thru the mountains with a small truck loaded on it. The operators both times were very friendly and knowledgeable about their products. Keep up the good work and I'll keep buying! 388541

Put about 3000 miles with zero issues. They performed better than expected. I have ordered several items since then and the operators are all knowledgeable and all ways willing to do what they can to ensure a proper order and that Im satisfied with my order

Cannot get brakes to operate properly with new hub /drum and magnets! Very weak braking. Everything in spec .---voltage, grounds and amperage draw, brake shoes adjusted. Called tech but had no additional suggestions to get working properly. One magnet was damaged when arrived due to bad packaging. Heavy drum was laying on top of magnets and broke through and damaged clip. Everything did fit properly however. 568895
Comments
There are several things to check to ensure your trailer brakes are working at their optimum effectiveness. 1 With the brake controller gain turned all the way up and the manual brake switch on the controller activated, ideally youll want to see 10-1/2 volts at each brake magnet, 10 volts at the absolute minimum. 2 Ensure that the brakes are properly adjusted. If they are adjusted properly, you should feel a very slight lining drag when you spin the wheel by hand. 3 When new brakes and drums are installed, the brakes should be burnished in. This involves accelerating up to about 40 mph, then using the manual brake switch to slow the vehicle/trailer down to 20 mph. Once at 20 mph, release the manual override and travel about a mile to allow enough time for brakes to cool and repeat the process again. You will need to repeat this process 20 to 30 times. This allows the magnet surface and the armature surface of the brake drum to completely conform to each other. This also breaks in the surface of the brake shoes and will prevent them from glazing in the future.

It has been a year since the brakes were replaced and they are still working well. My only beef is a general trailer brake complaint, trying to adjust the shoes with the drum on is nearly impossible with a drop axle, the adjustment hole is right behind the upright for the axle. Installation was easy, equipment has held up well and was a good value. etrailer keeps providing excellent customer support. It is nice to deal with a company that has employees with great attitudes and who are knowledgeable about the products they sell. I'll be back when one of my other trailers needs repair. 720019

I ordered the hub and idler set, my trailer came with 15x5 hubs and I ordered 15x4.5 rims. Since they wouldn't return my rims I ordered the correct hubs from etrailer. Got my box only had one seal slightly damaged. Installing was a breeze and happy with my purchase... Website was very user friendly as my first plan was to do a 6lug but I talked myself out of it. Thanks etrailer good job, nice company to deal with. 502161

About a year ago I bought a pair of these hubs to use on my boat trailer if I ever had a hub/bearing failure while on the road. My buddies keep spares in their trucks and suggested I do the same. Sure enough, a couple months ago I had a bearing failure on the highway. Smoked both bearings and tore up hub and castle nut. Since I had tools, grease, and a fresh hub I was good to go fairly quickly and saved all of the hassle of a tow. I didn’t have a new castle nut but a guy that stopped to help me did have one. Very lucky. When I got home I ordered another hub, castle nut and pin from etrailer. Hope I don’t need to use it for a while 869804

- Parts Needed to Add Brakes to a 3,500 lb Dexter Trailer AxleThe etrailer.com Trailer Hub and Drum Assembly # AKHD-545-35-EZ-K for E-Z Lube Axles would be the correct hub for your Dexter 3,500 lb axle, and then for brake assemblies # AKEBRK-35-SA covers both the left and right side.

If your spindle has a zerk on it then you have an E-Z lube spindle and you will want to use either the Trailer Hub and Drum Assembly # AKHD-545-35-EZ-K if you have drum brakes or the part # AKIHUB-545-35-EZ-K if you don't have brakes.

- Trailer bearings and Seals For Lippert 3500 Lb Axle on Jayco Jay FlightSince the axle in the photo is a Lippert 3,500 lb axle the bearings you need are part # L68149 for the inner and part # L44649 for the outer. You need part # RG06-050 for the seals. You can remove your existing hub to check the bearing numbers stamped on the side of the bearing to double check but these are the most common bearings and seals used on that axle. You can also use the kit part # BK2-100 that comes with the cotter pin and tang washer. If you are looking for your bearing...

- Self Adjusting Brake Setup Recommendation for a Lippert 3,500 lb Trailer AxleYou actually have a Lippert 3,500 lb axle which we definitely have hub drums available for. I searched the part numbers you gave to determine that. For a hub that will fit your spindle you would want the part # AKHD-545-35-EZ-K which is a 10 inch hub drum that has a 5 on 4-1/2 inch bolt pattern. Then for brake assemblies you would want the part # AKEBRK-35R-SA for the right hand side and part # AKEBRK-35L-SA both of these are self adjusting assemblies that would fit and work well for you.

- Hub and Drum Recommendation for Dexter 3,500 lb Trailer Axle with Brake AssembliesWe have just what you need. But I would need to know your lug bolt pattern to pick out the correct hubs. If you check out the attached link you will see all of the hubs we offer that would fit your axle that are also drums. Most likely you have a 5 on 4-1/2 inch bolt pattern and the part # AKHD-545-35-EZ-K would be the correct hub.

- How Important is Rust on Interior Surface Of Trailer Hub/Drum AssemblyThe interior surface of a hub/drum will develop some rust almost immediately after exposure to the outside world. You may have noticed after your last new vehicle purchase that rust on the front brake discs will start to appear almost as soon as you get it in the driveway. This is normal.
