Oil Bath Hub Cap Replacement
2 Pack - Billet Aluminum Oil Bath Dust Caps — 2-7/8"-12 Thread Pair
Durable billet aluminum oil bath dust cap pair designed to replace common clear plastic oil caps on compatible threaded trailer oil bath hubs.
Part Number: 21-35 Billet-Chrome-KITX2 Pair / 2 Caps 2-7/8"-12 Thread
Overview
This R&P Carriages aftermarket billet aluminum oil bath dust cap pair is a service-friendly replacement solution for compatible trailer oil bath hubs using 2-7/8"-12 threaded caps. Machined from solid aluminum, these caps offer a stronger alternative to common clear plastic oil caps while helping retain hub oil inside the assembly when properly installed with the included sealing components.
R&P Service Insight
Oil bath caps should be matched carefully to the hub thread and cap style before installation. A properly seated cap helps keep lubricant in the hub and contamination out.
- Thread Match: Confirm your hub uses 2-7/8"-12 threads before ordering.
- Seal Check: Inspect the O-rings and rubber center plugs during installation.
- Hub Maintenance: Verify oil level and hub condition before returning the trailer to road use.

Before Ordering: Verify your existing cap thread size, hub type, oil bath cap style, and sealing surface before purchase.
R&P Repair Insight
Oil bath hub caps are small parts, but they play an important role in keeping lubricant inside the hub and contamination out. When replacing a cap, inspect the hub threads, O-ring contact area, and oil condition before returning the trailer to service.
- Check Threads: Damaged hub threads can prevent proper cap seating and sealing.
- Check Oil Level: Confirm proper hub oil level after cap installation.
- Check for Leaks: Inspect around the cap and plug after installation and again after initial use.
