This product is a precision-machined Blank Hub Plate, specifically designed for bump steer measuring instruments. This component is an essential tool for every motorsport professional who fine-tunes suspension geometry, ensuring the accuracy and repeatability of measurements.
The hub plate, serving as the base for precision measuring tools, ensures that measurements are built upon the most reliable foundation, regardless of the vehicle's actual wheel hub. This „blank” (empty) design provides flexibility for the user, allowing for the plate to be customized or for special adapters to be mounted to the measuring system.
This hub plate is manufactured from the highest quality materials and production processes to meet the demands of the racetrack:

Bump steer is the phenomenon in suspension where vertical wheel travel (e.g., when going over a bump) causes a lateral deflection of the steered wheel. This unwanted steering input drastically reduces vehicle stability at high speeds, especially in corners.
Accurate measurement and correction are essential for optimizing the performance of race cars. This blank hub plate provides the measuring instrument with a stable, known reference point against which the position of suspension components (tie rods, control arms) must be referenced during setup. Using a precision hub plate eliminates measurement errors caused by irregularities in the wheel hub or rim.
This accessory is the ideal choice for:
