Wheel Hub Assembly
A unit containing the wheel bearing and hub that supports wheel rotation.
The wheel hub assembly houses the bearing and provides the mounting point for the wheel and brake rotor. It ensures smooth wheel rotation and supports vehicle weight. Noisy or rough bearings signal wear, requiring replacement. Proper torque during installation prevents premature failure. Modern hubs often include ABS sensors integrated into the unit. Maintaining hub integrity is essential for safe handling, braking, and ride comfort.
