Drum piloting hub

摘要

A wheel hub includes a hub barrel and a hub mounting portion positioned concentrically around the hub barrel. The hub mounting portion includes a number of flange holes adapted to receive a number of corresponding wheel studs. A number of drum pilots are positioned one each between the hub barrel and the hub mounting portion and are concentric with the hub barrel. The drum pilots are radially aligned with the flange holes so that each of the flange holes has a corresponding drum pilot.
