Hub-and-drum assembly for your trailer. For electric or hydraulic brakes. Fits 3.5K Dexter E-Z Lube and etrailer Easy Grease axles. Inner bearing (L68149) and race, outer bearing (L44649) and race, grease seal, grease cap, and lug nuts included.

Specs:
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.
The grease cap on this hub-and-drum assembly is specially designed to work with your Dexter E-Z Lube or etrailer Easy Grease 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.

Hub-and-drum assembly for your trailer. For electric or hydraulic brakes. Fits 3.5K Dexter E-Z Lube and etrailer Easy Grease axles. Inner bearing (L68149) and race, outer bearing (L44649) and race, grease seal, grease cap, and lug nuts included.Hubs matched to my original Dexter hubs. The prices was more than 50% less than Dexter axles; well worth the savings.
Bearings came installed; made installation a breeze. Slide them on and put on retaining washer, nut and retaining bracket.
I’d buy them again (today) will re-evaluate in a year.
This is the trailer I built using your spindles and electric brakes.
It towed beautifully from Texas to Kansas City and back for the World of Wheels.
Purchased a used 2016 Keystone Hideout Trailer and wanted to be sure it was safe going down the road. These four assemblies were clean, packaged well and fit as expected. We will be headed out to campsite next month and will update this review ONLY if their is a discrepancy, otherwise, we are very satisfied with our etrailer purchase.
Easily installed... Pre-greased bearing... Should have come with new axel nut, cotter key and bearing washer, but didn't.. Used old ones...
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!

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
Pleased with the quality of these hub/drum assemblies. Bearings were nicely pre-greased. Kit comes with solid bearing hub covers and bearing buddy types with removable rubber grease plugs...your choice.
I ordered an easy grease trailer hub and drum assembly to replace the one on my 14 foot cargo trailer which was damaged by a defective magnet. The one I ordered fit perfectly. Since it came pre-greased, it saved quite a bit of time because I did not have to pack the bearings and press in the seal.
I think your a great company but my hub drum assembly was a little out of round.
This is probably from storage by the manufacturer.
Have great day! Don
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.
Missing parts, one of the two kits I ordered was already opened an missing the caps

It is a bummer that it arrived missing the grease caps. I will have our Customer Service team reach out to you.
Received the hubs very quickly. They were well greesed and ready to go. They look well machined. I did have one lug nut that had something wrong with the threads. I might could have used it, but since it would not thread on by hand I did not want to try it since it might damage the stud. I went on line and did a chat with etrailer. Thier customer service is top rated. They shipped me out another lug nut. This is why I do business with etrailer. They understand the needs of the customer and understand the products they sell.
I installed the hubs this weekend and took the trailer for a test pull. Needed to adjust the brakes up a little, but all was well.
drums and brakes went together perfectly. Amy J was a big help.
Perfect fit for the corresponding e-trailer brake assembly. Even comes with lug nuts, but I didn’t use them because they are a size up from whats on the rest of my trailer wheels. Same thread, just different lug wrench size. Personally, e-trailer, I’d forgo including the lug nuts and instead, include the mounting hardware with your e-trailer brake assemblies.
Service was great and the shipping was fast. As always etrailer out performs its competitors.
One of the lug nuts was damaged and could not be used. I would like a cotter pin and a flat washer included in this assembly.
I haven't received my leaf springs at the same time. I ordered them within minutes of each other. So I have to wait until next week now. Once I get things together I can make an accurate assessment. Probably the only gripe of mine is that I have to wait now. Thanks for the follow up.
Came quicker than expected. Missing hardware though. Box was damaged.

Brittany in customer service did an outstanding job!! You dont find this in todays world. Thanks for a great experience.
Works great and the best customer service experience I have had in years thank you so much etrailer
Worked for Tru Ryde RVD-H-545 SZ 13!
Bearing L44649
Fast service. Help us work through getting good replacement parts. Thank you.
Perfect fit on my Airstream travel trai ler
Hubs went on easily. Having the bearings pre-greased and everything already assembled right out of the box was nice.
Not completely sure if it is the brake assemblies or the drums but the combination of this and dexter brakes was a waste . Do not buy . They work enough to stop spinning the wheel on a jack but that's it.

I will have our customer service team reach out to you. I do have a solution to offer in that I recommend breaking in the brakes. The break-in process applies to both manual adjusting and self-adjusting electric brakes. Its necessary to do this step when you install new brakes because it allows the brake shoes and magnet to seat into the drum. We have a FAQ about adjusting the brakes that covers breaking in the brakes very well.
