PCT No. PCT/SE93/00490 Sec. 371 Date Nov. 14, 1994 Sec. 102(e) Date Nov. 14, 1994 PCT Filed Jun. 2, 1993 PCT Pub. No. WO93/24761 PCT Pub. Date Dec. 9, 1993The invention relates to a wheel hub and brake disc arrangement for a vehicle wheel. A disc-shaped carrier to which the wheel rim is attached includes a tubular portion. The tubular portion of the disc-shaped carrier is affixed by a screw connection to a hub portion rotatably carried by bearing means. A neck portion integral with the disc-shaped carrier radially externally of the screw connection presents an external shaping which meshes with an internal shaping on the brake disc. This arrangement eliminates the need for the screw connection to act as a braking moment transmitting element.
