Care information

To ensure optimal performance and extend the service life of your new trailer components, please follow these care guidelines after purchase:

  • Before installation, check all parts for shipping damage or missing components. Do not install damaged parts.
  • Always use correct tools and torque settings. Improper installation can lead to premature wear or failure.
  • For bearings, suspensions, and brake components, apply high-quality trailer grease before first use if not pre-greased.
  • Some parts (like brake assemblies) require a short break-in period to achieve full performance. Follow manufacturer instructions for best results.
  • Recheck fasteners, grease levels, and moving components after 100 miles of towing, then at regular intervals.
  • After exposure to water, road salt, or mud, clean and dry parts thoroughly. Apply anti-rust treatment if needed.
  • If storing unused parts, keep them in a dry, sealed container away from moisture and direct sunlight.

Product Overview:

Upgrade your trailer axle maintenance with this 2-pack of 2-7/8" threaded oil bath caps from Trailer Supplies, designed as direct replacements for Dexter 6K-8K axles. These caps are commonly used on 8-lug Dexter drums including 8-219, 8-232, 8-285, and 8-286, as well as select 6,000 lb and 7,000 lb oil bath hubs. They also fit certain older 9,000 lb drum models manufactured before October 1989.

Each oil bath cap features a durable metal construction with a 12-thread design for secure fitment. The included rubber plug and O-ring create a reliable seal, keeping lubricant inside the hub while blocking dirt, water, and road debris.
