Since the early pioneering days of the motor car, we have been manufacturing many parts for the motor industry. Wheel hub and bearing assemblies are purpose built in our bilstein group engineering production facility, which is responsible for many series and special projects.
The fundamental role of the wheel hub is to provide the central mounting point for the attachment of the road wheel, brake disc and wheel bearing, making it a core component of the wheel hub assembly.
Wheel hub production starts with a steel blank, which is machined on a CNC lathe to the exact dimensions. If any hardening of the metal is required, this is applied as per the specification. This is followed by any finishing, prior to assembly of the wheel bearing, which may require a further hardening process. Then the wheel studs and the wheel speed sensor reluctor ring, is added as required, prior to packaging ready for shipment. Each stage of the production is inspected for continuity of accuracy, of the part being produced.
Made in Germany is not just a claim – it is Our Promise.
