THE PATENTED DURAHUB OIL BATH SYSTEM
Durahub Bearing Protectors provide trailer owners with an effective protection system for the wheel bearing assembly. They give complete peace of mind by extending the life expectancy of trailer bearings and reducing maintenance. Made of stainless steel, the Durahub protectors can be completely submerged under salt water without fear of corrosive damage.
The Durahub system is easy to fit, simply replacing the hub cap, and following our simple step-by-step instructions. The Durahub Installation Kit comes complete with everything you require for self installation, including seals and lubrication oil. When properly installed and maintained, Durahub prevents wheel bearing failure and eliminates the need for constant maintenance.
ITS ALL IN ONE COMPLETE PACK....
 
IF YOU CAN TOW IT.......YOU CAN DURAHUB IT!

The Durahub system will give long life protection to wheel bearings and gives you savings of up to 10% on fuel consumption when towing. It’s ideal for:

• Boat Trailers • Box Trailers • Caravans
• Horse Floats • Single, double and Triaxle Trailers
 
HOW THE DURAHUB SYSTEM WORKS
The Durahub system is fully tested and proven to protect against damage from water and dirt entering the wheel bearings by sealing the area from outside contaminants. The Durahub creates a controlled environment around the wheel bearing by way of a rubber diaphragm. This importantly maintains internal hub pressure by expanding and contracting, keeping the wheel bearing constantly lubricated with Durahub Bearing Oil.
With our unique clear polycarbonate lens you can easily monitor oil levels at any time. Top-ups are easily achieved through our easy access plug without the use of any specialty tools.
WHY WHEEL BEARINGS FAIL
Trailer wheel hubs create tremendous heat under normal travelling conditions. When submerged in water, such as backing a boat into water, the hubs are suddenly cooled. Air inside the hubs contracts and a vacuum is created. Water and dirt are sucked into the hubs through the inner seals and corrosion sets in immediately. From then on, bearing failure can be imminent within 12 months. Failure also occurs when the trailer is overloaded, so ensure the weight is below the limit.
