Abstract

An integral hub and exciter ring is disclosed for a motor vehicle equipped with an anti-lock braking system in which the exciter ring is integrally formed with the hub by machining grooves into the hub forming spaced teeth about the circumference of the hub. To improve the magnetic permeability of the teeth as compared to the cast iron of the hub, a steel band is insert cast into the hub resulting in a steel band having improved magnetic permeability and also being molecularly bonded to the cast iron to ensure retention of the band in the hub.
