3-Minute Hub Oil Change with HexThread™ Technology
Stop Wasting Time on Hub Cap Maintenance
HexThread™ Technology from The Hub Corp is challenging the standard.
When you're running freight, every minute in the shop is a minute you're not making money. That’s why The Hub Corp developed HexThread™ Technology—a smarter, cleaner, faster approach to hub cap service that keeps your trucks moving and your maintenance costs down.
What Is HexThread™?
HexThread™ is The Hub Corp’s patent-pending threaded front access cartridge—a dramatic rethinking of the bolt-on hub cap. Rather than removing the entire hub cap and replacing the flange gasket every service, HexThread™ lets you:
- Unscrew the front of the cap in seconds
- Drain, inspect, and refill hub oil—without breaking the seal
It’s field-serviceable, clean, and fast.
Why It Matters
Standard hub caps slow everything down. Servicing one typically requires:
- Removing all mounting bolts
- Scraping away deteriorated gasket material
- Draining spent hub oil and cleaning all surfaces
- Reinstalling a brand-new cap with a new gasket
- Retorquing everything to spec
That’s 15–30 minutes per wheel—easily hours of downtime across a full rig.
With HexThread™, you skip the mess, the new hardware, and the wasted time:
- Loosen the cartridge
- Drain the spent hub oil
- Reinstall and refill—all in under 3 minutes
Reuse is the Revolution
For decades, hub caps have been treated as throwaway parts. When it's time for service, you remove and replace the whole thing. It's wasteful. It's expensive. And it's completely unnecessary.
The Xtractor™ changes that:
- Better materials
- Smarter design
- A hub cap that’s built to be cleaned, serviced, and reused
No more single-use caps. No more wasted labor. Just a better, more sustainable solution for modern wheel-end maintenance.
