These manual locking hubs are constructed from impact resistant nodular iron, ensuring durability and longevity in demanding conditions. The corrosion resistant die cast aluminum cap adds an extra layer of protection against the elements, making these hubs a reliable choice for off-road enthusiasts.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003eBy utilizing a hardened nylon center instead of metal, the design minimizes the risk of failure while maintaining functionality.
