This 17mm x 50mm wide front wheel hub from PKT connects your kart wheel to the spindle on most sprint and oval karts. Beginners will appreciate that it is the metal piece that slides onto the front axle so you can bolt the tire and wheel on securely. Racers who already know their way around a kart will like the short-length design that cuts unsprung weight while keeping full bearing support.

Made from aluminum and finished in black, the hub presses onto standard 17mm front wheel spindles. It comes with three pre-installed 8mm wheel studs ready for mounting. The 50mm width gives solid support under the side loads that come with hard cornering, and the whole assembly stays light so your front end responds quickly.

Safety Notes: Always torque wheel nuts to the kart manufacturer's recommended spec after mounting. Loose wheel hardware on a 17mm front wheel hub can cause vibration or wheel loss at speed.

The hub is made in the USA from quality aluminum that resists corrosion and stays true under repeated racing stress. Whether you are replacing a bent hub after a big hit or building a new kart from scratch, this part gives reliable performance without adding extra grams.

Safety Notes: Inspect your 17mm front wheel hub and studs before every race weekend. Look for cracks around the stud bases or play in the bearing bore that could affect steering precision and safety.
