Axle hubs and motor hubs are often confused because they look alike and they serve the same
function but in slightly different applications.
The difference between the two elements is the size of the inside diameter of the hole in the center of
the element. The axle hub is sized for the axle, while the motor hub is sized for the motor shaft.
While axle hubs can be used only on axles because of size, the motor hub could be incorrectly used on
an axle and cause problems with function and attachment of wheels or gears. The image on the left
shows an axle in the center of a motor hub. Notice the difference in size between the outer diameter of
the axle and the inside diameter of the motor hub. The image on the right shows an axle in the center
of the axle hub. Notice the elements are sized correctly to fit together and function properly.
