Wheels Manufacturing CN-R055 Front Hub Cone

This cone is specifically designed for select Shimano hubs, including the Nexave HB-T400, Deore HB-M510, and STX series (HB-MC32/30). Before purchasing, verify your hub model and ensure your axle threads match the 9mm x 1 specification.

You will need a standard 13mm cone wrench to install and adjust this component. Because it is a precision-machined part, ensure your wrench is in good condition to avoid marring the flats during the adjustment process.

Yes, it features an integrated 22mm metal dust seal. This seal is crucial for keeping contaminants out of your bearings and extending the overall lifespan of your hub assembly.

It is not recommended. Hub cones are highly specific to the internal geometry and thread pitch of the original manufacturer's hub design. Using this on an incompatible hub will likely result in poor bearing performance or damage to your axle.

Over time, the bearing race surface on a cone can develop pitting or wear, which creates friction and prevents smooth rotation. Replacing a damaged cone is the most effective way to restore proper bearing function and prevent further damage to the hub's internal components.
