Recommended 2.08 Diameter Grease Caps For Trailer

Question:

I took our trailer in to have the bearings re-packed, and they have had a difficult time finding replacement dust caps. They are 2.08 diameter, but the repair guy says they are also deepinch and cant find a dealer with the part. Any idea where I might find such a part? Thanks for your help!

We carry grease caps that fit a 2.08 diameter hub bore. Unfortunately, we do not carry dust caps with that diameter. The grease caps I recommend are Bearing Buddy, part # BB2080SS for non threaded hubs, and part # BB2080T-SS for hub bores that are 2.08 inch and that have 12 threads per inch. These seat into your hub and provide an easy way to protect your bearings from dirt and water,and makes adding grease to the bearings very quick and simple, with the included grease fitting.

I pulled a pair of these from our warehouse and have attached a photo that has some measurements for you. As you can see, the depth that the cap fits into the hub is .29 inches. The overall depth of the Bearing Buddy is 1.78 inches. These come packaged in pairs.
