wheel hub
The hub is an element of the tractor's running gear to which the wheel is bolted. The hub is placed in the so-called reduction gear and allows the wheel to rotate freely and is responsible for maintaining the wheel in the appropriate position. In tractors of simple construction, the hub is mounted directly on the transmission and drive shaft.
