Trailer Hub Grease Cap, 2.44" OD Drive In with Plug
Videos are provided as a guide only. Refer to manufacturer installation instructions and specs for complete information.
Today we're going to take at look at the trailer hub drive-in easy lube grease caps. These have a 2.44 overall diameter. This part is for a quantity of two. These grease caps are designed for trailers that have easy lube axles. If you notice it has a center rubber plug that pops right out. This plug is removed to access the grease zerk fitting that is usually on the end of an easy lube spindle on an easy lube axle.
It saves you. You don't have to take your whole hub off to grease the bearings. What you can do is with this on the end of the hub, you just pop the center rubber plug out. It gives you access to that zerk fitting, put your grease gun in there and pump the grease in. These are commonly used on 4,400 pound to 6,000 pound axles.
The caps are made of a 22 gauge steel construction. Again the plugs are rubber. These are a drive-in installation and they do have a corrosion resistant zinc plating to them. Again the quantity is for two of them. Two critical measurements on the center cap are going to be the flange diameter which is measured from here to here and the overall height from the bottom to the very top. On this cap our flange diameter is 2.44" and the overall height from the bottom to the top is right at 1.52".
When this is installed onto the hub, all you have to do is pop off your rubber plug to access the zerk fitting. When you're done greasing the bearings, just put the rubber plug right back in. That should do it for the review of the trailer hub drive-in easy lube grease caps with the 2.44 overall diameter and for a quantity of two.

I called customer service on a weekend to discuss shipping information. I had great servcie, with e-mail follow up. The part arrived when expected and was exactly what I needed. Great experience.
EXCELLENT...... START TO FINISH. Fantastic service, great prices, quality products. So much better than trying to clean up the old rusty one. Thanks again, Bill Borland in Michigan
All of the products we purchased from etrailer have been top quality and the service is excellent. Would defaintly recommend to others.
Ordered 15 Dust Caps 2/ rubber plug, all different sizes. I had 15 Dust Caps and plugs, thrown in 1 box. Not one is labeled, basically useless to me. Not happy at all.
Does what it’s meant to do. Delivery was fast and the product selection at e-trailer is second to none
Everything came in good condition, and quickly. Thank you!
They seem to be good quality and work the way they should.
Great products. Fast delivery. Outstanding customer service. They go out of their way to ensure you get the product you are looking for.
It's been a year since I purchased the bearing covers and there working great. Finish and rubber are holding up to the Florida sun.
Replaced axles, new had EZ-Lube spindles and reused older drums and needed to retro fit with these Grease fitting access, dust caps. Worked perfectly
Good looking product, good tight fit. When installing the first time you'll need to file the burr off the edge and chamfer it slightly to get them started. They're still tight but you can persuade them with a wood block and hammer, without damage. They need to fit that tight and all four were uniform in fit, Thanks.

Have had no problem. Good heavy plating is still holding with no rust through.
Works great! Exactly what I needed!
Awesome delivery time along with great prices. Kept me informed on the status of my order.
After ordering the 2.44 size, twice, from another website, that I thought would be faster. Both orders showed up measuring 2.46 and would not fit the trailer. The time I thought I would save, turned into two returns before ordering from etrailer. Which of course fit perfectly. Don't trust the many vendors that ship through [online vendor]. I should have gone to etrailer for the correct parts the first time.

Yes, unfortunately the grease caps do not typically come with individual labels. The easiest way to distinguish between them will be to measure the outer diameter to determine their sizes.
