Wilwood 270-16772BLS Starlite 55 Wide 5 Disc Brake Hub 1-Ton Bearing Left Side Black

The Wilwood Starlite 55 Wide 5 disc brake hub combines the superior strength of permanent mold, high-density aircraft aluminum with weight savings comparable to much more expensive magnesium hub assemblies. This innovative design delivers professional-grade performance at a fraction of the cost.

Key Features:

• High-density aircraft aluminum construction for exceptional strength-to-weight ratio
• 1-ton bearing races for heavy-duty applications
• Lightweight 5-bolt drive flange design (vs. traditional 8-bolt)
• Composite Snap-Cap front dust caps reduce overall weight
• Rear hub configuration weighs under 7 pounds with bearing races and studs installed
• Assembled weight meets or beats most 8-bolt magnesium hub assemblies
• Left side application
• Black anodized finish

The Starlite 55 represents a refined evolution of Wilwood's proven hub technology, eliminating unnecessary weight while maintaining structural integrity. The switch to a 5-bolt drive flange pattern, combined with optimized hub geometry and composite dust caps, delivers one of the lightest hub assemblies available without compromising strength or durability. Ideal for racing applications where every ounce matters.
