This 1.98″ Dust Cap with Rubber Grommet is a premium hub protection solution designed to fit industry-standard 2K to 3.5K (2,000lb – 3,500lb) trailer hubs.
Available from leading brands like DeeMaxx or Dexter, this cap is engineered specifically for axles equipped with grease-lubrication systems (such as EZ-Lube or similar), allowing for easy maintenance without removing the cap.
Product Overview
Keep your wheel bearings protected from road grime, dust, and moisture with this heavy-duty steel cap. The integrated high-quality rubber grommet provides a watertight seal for the centre access hole, while allowing you instant access to the grease nipple. This “no-mess” design ensures your bearings stay lubricated and your hub internals remain pristine.
Key Features
- Easy-Access Grommet: Features a removable rubber plug in the centre, allowing you to attach a grease gun directly to the axle spindle without prying off the dust cap.
- Precision Press-Fit: Sized at 1.98 inches (approx. 50.3mm) for a snug, secure fit on standard trailer hubs.
- Durable Construction: Manufactured from heavy-gauge steel with a corrosion-resistant finish to withstand harsh road conditions and salt air.
- Watertight Seal: The high-grade rubber grommet is UV-stabilised and designed to create a tight seal, preventing water ingress during boat ramp launches or heavy rain.
- Universal Compatibility: Fits most standard 4-stud and 5-stud trailer hubs used on caravans, boat trailers, and utility trailers.
