Polishing Wheel Hub with Zirconia Ceramic Beads

To polish a wheel hub with zirconia ceramic beads, use a vibratory tumbler to agitate the beads and the part being polished. Choose the right size of beads, add them and the wheel hub to the tumbler, and let it run for several hours. Remove the wheel hub and rinse it thoroughly, then dry and inspect the finish. If you’re satisfied, the part is ready to use. Otherwise, repeat the process with fresh beads. Zirconia ceramic beads are a common abrasive media used for metal finishing and polishing, and can help achieve a smooth, polished surface on wheel hubs.
