A brake cam assembly comprises a cam tube and a cam rod, each having an inboard end and an outboard end, relative to the wheel to be braked. The cam rod carries a cam at its outboard end to actuate the brake. At least one inboard bearing ring is secured inside the cam tube adjacent the inboard end and at least one outboard bearing ring is secured inside the cam tube adjacent the outboard end. The cam rod is rotatably supported by the bearing rings to be rotatable within the cam tube, with the outer surface of the cam rod being spaced from the interior surface of the cam tube. An inboard sealing ring is disposed at the inboard end of the cam tube, an outboard sealing ring is disposed at the outboard end of the cam tube, and a quantity of lubricant is disposed within the cam tube.
