In summary, the invention relates to a wheel hub (1) having a radially extending wheel flange (17) which has fastening holes (3), having a cylindrical projection which extends from the wheel flange (17) axially on the vehicle side and which serves for at least partially receiving a rolling bearing, and having a centring device which is mounted axially on the wheel side. It is the express aim of the invention to realize a high rigidity of the wheel hub (1) and/or of the wheel bearing unit with little material usage. One possibility arises by virtue of the centring device of a wheel hub being regarded as the product of the compromise between rigidity and possible material removal. In this regard, a particular arrangement of the webs that form the centring device is proposed which leads to a particularly advantageous solution, specifically by virtue of the webs (7) being oriented in the same radial direction (A, B) as the fastening holes (3) of the wheel flange (17).
