By Structural Design
The structural designs of our forged hubs, which are made for strength, alignment, and versatility, include plain, flanged, tapered, solid, and hollow varieties.
Plain Hub
- Simple cylindrical design for basic shaft mounting applications.
- Cost-effective, minimal machining, easy to produce.
- Ideal for general-purpose and unobstructed hub uses.
Flanged Hub
- Flange enables bolted connections or structural support.
- Distributes load and improves axial retention.
- Common in pumps, gearboxes, and wheel hubs.
Tapered Hub
- Conical shape allows self-centering and tight alignment.
- Reduces backlash and improves torque transmission.
- Used in automotive and high-precision machinery.
Solid Hub
- Fully enclosed without bore for high structural strength.
- Withstands torsional and axial stresses efficiently.
- Suitable for fixtures and solid structural components.
Hollow Hub
- Central bore (through or blind) accommodates shafts or bearings.
- Lightweight, reduces inertia for rotating parts.
- Used in robotics, automotive, and compact devices.
By Connection Method
Our forged hubs offer splined, threaded, and keyed connections for secure torque transmission, precise alignment, and reliable performance in demanding applications.
Splined Hub
- External or internal splines transmit torque with matching shaft.
- Maintains axial alignment and prevents rotational slip.
- Used in automotive, aerospace, and heavy machinery systems.

By Mounting Type
For safe, accurate, and effective shaft connections, our forged hubs accommodate bolt-on, press-fit, taper lock, and weld-on mounting styles.
Weld-on Hub
Smooth outer surface designed for welding onto shafts or components, forming a permanent, rigid, vibration-resistant connection in demanding systems.
Taper Lock Hub
Incorporates a tapered bore and keyway for bushing installation, ensuring quick mounting, accurate alignment, and high-torque engagement in assemblies.
Bolt-on Hub
Equipped with flanges or bolt holes for secure fastening, allowing easy installation, reliable positioning, and quick replacement without welding or special tools.
Press-fit Hub
Relies on an interference fit with the shaft, delivering strong torque transmission, compact structure, and secure mounting without keys or threaded elements.
