so do I , got any more info on it . I did wonder about making something up out of hose fittings , I guess it would have to be drilled through the backplate .
My only concern is it could push water into the bearings unless the spray into the brake was diffused
Just looked at the hubflush site , no prices shown but the pics just show normal plastic pushfit plumbing fittings , pipe is about £1 a metre and the fittings are around £2 each depending on the type , Looks like normal tap conectors that are drilled into the back of the hub .
The idea i have been thinking of envolves using the same stuff or maybe just hozelock garden hose and a water container mounted on the trailer . When i recover the boat i intend atatching the water container to the hose and letting it run through the brakes as i drive . That way its flushed better and should be dry by the time I get home , hence the brakes are not left wet as they would be if I flushed them at home .
If you scroll down the opening page further prices are given
£49for single axle & £69 for double
Ohh yea think ill make me one , as i keep all that stuff in stock ,
Thinking about the spray , if its not directly hitting the seals then it shouldn't be a problem and i can see no need for a special nozzle as the water will just spray back all over the brakes when it hits the inside of the drum
I believe they designed the nozzle from scratch as raised flower bed irrigation sprays didn't quite work well..........hence the apparent costliness of the kit.
If you search for hubflush I think the vendor posted something to that effect.

I knocked my own up out of acorn pipe and fittings I had laying around. the only parts I bought were 2 armoured flexable waterpipes from B&Q to fit into the existing holes in the back of the brake plates, they had the 3 benifits in my mind 1. they are more flexable and armoured 2. the id of the pipe is a lot smaller so gives a higher pressure jet so splashes the water around more 3. They fitted an existing hole in brake back plate so no drilling.
I will take a picture when I get back from Madrid
