What is a Car Wheel Hub?
1 Answers
Wheel hub refers to the cylindrical metal component at the center of a car tire that supports the tire around the axle. In simple terms, it is the part at the center of the wheel where the axle is mounted, serving as a crucial component connecting the brake drum (or brake disc), wheel disc, and axle. More details are as follows: 1. The so-called "tire" is the rubber part of the "wheel," which is soft in nature. Therefore, the barrel-shaped part inside the tire that supports it, with its center mounted on the axle, is called the wheel hub. 2. Due to different language habits, many people have various names for the wheel hub, such as "rim." In southern regions, many car owners refer to it as "tire bell" or "car bell." It's important not to confuse "car bell" with "car bell" (as in a bell sound) when someone mentions it.
