This replacement trailer hub cap is designed for trailer owners and mechanics seeking a reliable shield for their wheel bearings. Its primary benefit is providing a robust, dust-proof seal that retains essential grease while preventing harmful debris from entering the bearing assembly, though users should confirm their hub internal diameter is exactly 70mm before purchase to ensure a proper fit.

No, this is specifically designed for trailer hubs with a 70mm internal diameter and is not intended for automotive wheels.
This listing includes one single hub cap.
Yes, the metal construction is suitable, but ensure it is seated correctly to maintain a waterproof seal for the bearings.
Usually, only a rubber mallet is required to tap the cap into place securely.
Measure the internal diameter of the hole at the center of the wheel hub using a set of calipers.
Verify your hub bore diameter is exactly 70mm; if the hub is slightly oversized due to wear, the cap may not hold securely.
Use a rubber mallet to gently tap the perimeter of the cap to ensure an even, flush fit.
Apply a thin layer of high-temperature grease or a rust-preventative spray to the exterior to protect the metal finish.
Before installing, ensure the hub surface is clean and free of old grease or rust. If the fit is very tight, a rubber mallet may be used to gently tap the cap into place, ensuring you strike the outer edges evenly to avoid denting the center.
Compatibility: This unit fits hubs with an internal diameter of 70mm (MPN: IND045). Always measure your existing hub bore with digital calipers for accuracy.
Care: Periodically inspect the cap for signs of rust or deformation. If you are repacking your wheel bearings, take this opportunity to wipe the inside of the cap clean before re-seating it to maintain a perfect seal.
