Dexter 10 Inch Trailer Brake Drum Hub K08-517-91 with Bearings, Seal and Studs
The Dexter 10 Inch Brake Drum Hub (K08-517-91) is a complete trailer wheel hub assembly built to work with either hydraulic or electric drum brake systems, making it a common replacement part for boat trailer axles. The hub is E-Coated for greater corrosion resistance, an important feature for trailer components that are regularly submerged or exposed to salt water and road spray during launching and retrieval. This is a drum hub unit that comes with wheel bearings, a seal, bearing cups, and wheel studs already fitted, so it is ready to be installed onto the axle spindle without having to source and press in those components separately.
This hub is intended for trailer owners and technicians replacing a worn, rusted, or damaged brake drum hub, and it supports the drum brake hardware (shoes, hydraulic or electric actuating components) that mounts around it. Because it ships with the bearing and seal set already installed, it simplifies a hub replacement into essentially a bolt-on job once the old hub, bearings, and races have been removed from the spindle.
