Abstract
A stud comprises a head and a stem with a threaded end length and a length having an axial knurling proximate to the head and adapted to be driven with radial interference into an axial bore of a radial flange portion fast for rotation with the hub of a motor vehicle wheel. The stud comprises at least one knurled surface having an area other than zero in a projection on a plane perpendicular to the longitudinal axis of the stud. The knurled surface is adapted to co-operate with the radial flange portion for preventing rotation of the stud.
