Description

Overview

The BPW old gen EH8 hub cap closes the threaded end of conventional 8T trailer axle hubs used on the EH Series up to 1982. Its octagonal body and M115 x 3 external thread separate it from later BPW hub-cap designs that use different shapes and thread pitches.

Features

• Old-generation EH8 configuration for conventional 8T axle hubs.
• Eight-point octagonal body with 95mm across flats.
• M115 x 3 external thread.
• Zinc-plated metal construction for grease-filled wheel ends.

Specifications and Materials

Product type: screw-on grease hub cap. Thread: M115 x 3 external. Inside diameter: 107mm. Cap depth: 64mm. BPW overall height: 71mm. Spanner size: 95mm across flats.

Compatibility and Fitment

Match the removed cap by EH8 old-generation hub type, octagonal shape, 95mm across flats and M115 x 3 external thread. The main mismatch risk is confusing it with later 95mm caps that use an M115 x 2 thread.

The following cross-reference numbers identify verified equivalent or replacement parts for this exact application. Confirm the selection-critical fitment details against the part being replaced before fitting.

Compliance and Safety

Clean the hub and cap threads before fitting and start the cap square by hand. For a steel cap on a 6–12 tonne conventional hub, tighten to 500 Nm with a torque wrench and check that the cap seats firmly.

Trailer Applications

Workshops use the BPW old gen EH8 hub cap during bearing and grease service on matching pre-1982 conventional trailer hubs, including 8 tonne low-loader axle applications.

Why Choose ICS Trailers

Old BPW wheel ends are easy to misidentify when the original cap markings have worn away, especially where 95mm caps share a similar overall size. Compare the octagonal profile and M115 x 3 thread before ordering. ICS Trailers can use photos, measurements and axle details to help separate this EH8 version from later M115 x 2 caps.

• Use the 95mm across-flats measurement as a quick workshop identification check.
• Cross-check old replacement numbers when the original cap is damaged or unmarked.
