HexThread® Front Access Cartridge
The Xtractor is equipped with a patent-pending HexThread® front access cartridge which allows for easy hub oil service and internal inspection—without removing the hub cap or disturbing the flange gasket. This feature simplifies routine maintenance and supports early detection of wear, helping to prevent expensive failures.
3-Stage Magnetic Oil Filter
The Xtractor features a submerged, 3-stage magnetic filter that captures large debris and fine ferrous particles suspended in hub oil—protecting seals and bearings from pitting, scoring, corrosion, and galling. This patent-pending, reusable filtration mechanism keeps lubrication oil cleaner - reducing rolling friction and helping safeguard critical axle components from particle-induced wear.

What makes The Xtractor unique?
Most hub caps are just covers. The Xtractor is a performance-driven component, actively filtering foreign particulates from circulating in hub oil, reducing rolling resistance and safeguarding against particle-induced wear.
What problem does it solve?
Traditional hub caps allow metal & debris to continually circulate through your wheel-end system, causing rolling friction and accelerating component wear. The Xtractor removes contaminants to stop this destructive behavior.
What vehicles is it compatible with?
The Xtractor is engineered for standard Class 7 and 8 trucks and trailers, with fitment options for most standard hub configurations.
Is it field tested and proven?
Of course. The Xtractor has been tested in real-world fleet operations and validated by experienced mechanics and logistics professionals.
Is it easy to install?
Absolutely. The Xtractor fits just like any other hub cap. Gasket, 6 bolts, torque, then fill.
