Which lubricant does a front hub with taper roller bearings use?

  • A.Engine oil, which is fed from the hub cap and provides continuous lubrication throughout the service interval
  • B.A general purpose grease
  • C.Gear oil retained by a seal at the inner end, which is the arrangement used on the rear axle of most vehicles
  • D.A high melting point wheel bearing grease

Answer: D

The heat from braking demands a grease with a high drop point, and ordinary chassis grease melts and runs out. Overpacking is also avoided because the excess churns and overheats. Oil lubrication is used on heavy vehicle hubs but not on cars. Naming what changes and what stays the same is the reliable route through questions of this shape. Naming the cost of a choice alongside its benefit is what turns a fact into a design decision.
