What Causes Oil Leakage on Hubs and Tires?
1 Answers
Oil leakage on hubs and tires can be caused by brake fluid leakage or abnormal suspension system. It is recommended to visit a professional auto repair shop for inspection and maintenance. The functions of tires are: 1. Supporting the entire weight of the vehicle and bearing the load; 2. Transmitting traction and braking torque to ensure adhesion between the wheels and the road surface. The hub is the central part of the wheel, which fits with the tire and is mounted on the axle to support the tire. It has a cylindrical shape and usually contains bearings to reduce friction. Hubs can be divided into two main categories by material: steel hubs and alloy hubs. By surface treatment process, they can be classified into painted and electroplated types.
