The front wheel hub flange, or axle assembly, is an essential component of the vehicle's suspension and drivetrain system. It connects the wheel to the vehicle's axle and allows it to rotate smoothly. It contains built-in ball bearings to reduce friction and ensure a stable and safe ride.
Hub flange specifications:
- Country of Origin: Taiwan
- Product Brand:
- Product Number: MR334386
- Compatible Models: Mitsubishi Galant (2007-2012)
- Mitsubishi Space Wagon
Specifications and components: Materials used:
- Reinforced steel: to withstand high loads and shocks.
- Aluminum alloy: On some models to reduce weight and improve performance.
- the components:
- Hub: The part to which the wheel is attached.
- Bearing: To reduce friction as the wheel rotates.
- Stabilizer arms: To connect the axle to the suspension system.
- Lug Studs: To secure the frame securely.
- Speed sensor (on some models): For the anti-lock braking system (ABS).
Function and Performance: Wheel support and fixation:
- It acts as a link between the wheel and the suspension system, allowing it to rotate steadily.
- Reduce friction:
- Thanks to the presence of a ball bearing, it ensures smooth rotation without vibrations or noise.
- Load and shock resistance:
- Designed to withstand the weight and frictional forces generated by driving on different roads.
- Safety systems support:
- In some modern cars, the axle has a wheel speed sensor to assist the ABS and traction control system (TCS).
Signs of a damaged wheel hub:
- Noise or humming while driving, especially when turning.
- Steering wheel vibrations at high speeds.
- Uneven tire wear due to wheel instability.
- ABS light on (if there is a speed sensor inside the axle).
