Can a Deformed Wheel Hub Be Repaired?
1 Answers
Wheel hub deformation can be repaired, but replacement is recommended. Below is a partial introduction Wheel Hub Correction: The stress point of the wheel hub is the spoke. If the spoke is not bent or deformed, it does not affect usage. Rim deformation can be corrected. Wheel hub deformation repair involves using a correction machine to adjust the up-and-down and left-and-right wobble values within the standard range. Correction Method: First, pad the dented area with sponge or cloth, then use a hammer to flatten the dented part, followed by applying body filler (putty). Find the roundness on the wheel hub, smooth out the uneven areas, then roughen the inside with sandpaper in preparation for painting. Let the putty dry completely, then spray the entire wheel hub. After the paint dries, a "new" wheel hub is born. Influencing Factors: Wheel hub deformation is often caused by driving too fast over potholes. It is advised that car owners take care of their wheel hubs by slowing down when encountering potholes and avoiding excessive speed in general. If the edge of the wheel hub is deformed, it is recommended to repair it promptly to avoid affecting usage.
