Wheel bearings allow the rotation of the wheel (driven or non-driven), relative to the chassis of the car, while supporting the loads applied to the wheel.

3rd generation bearings incorporate two mounting functions: attachment to the chassis and the fixing to the disc brake and the rim of the wheel by the flanges incorporated into the inner and outer rings.  In addition, the integration of the bearing in the vehicle can also provide a transmission function in the case of a driven wheel (drive provided via the spline in the bore).
