Dexter 008-388-05 Trailer Hub and Drum Assembly, 7,000 lb, 42mm Bearing, 12 x 2 Inch Brakes

The Dexter 008-388-05 is a trailer hub and drum assembly rated for 7,000 lb axle applications. It is built around a 42mm bearing setup and comes with bearing cups and wheel studs, so the core rotating and mounting hardware is ready to install as one unit rather than sourced piece by piece. The 1/2 inch wheel studs are sized to accept standard 1/2 inch lug nuts, and the drum is sized for 12 x 2 inch brakes, matching common 7,000 lb axle brake setups.

This assembly is intended as a direct replacement for a worn or damaged hub and drum on a 7,000 lb rated trailer axle using a 42mm bearing and 12 x 2 inch brakes. Because it ships as a complete hub and drum unit with cups and studs included, it simplifies a hub replacement job by reducing the number of separate parts that need to be matched and ordered. Confirm your trailer's axle capacity, bearing size, stud size, and brake size against the specifications below before ordering, since hub and drum assemblies are matched closely to these dimensions.
