Loose wheel nut indicator / Wheel check/Wheel safety

Loose Wheel Nut Indicator/Wheel Nut indicator/Wheel check is a loose wheel nut indicator that used extensively by the transport industry as an enhancement and development of fleet safety roadworthiness procedures, daily walk-round inspection and defect reporting and scheduled maintenance requirements. Its use allows accurate monitoring for loose wheel nuts and helps prevent wheel hub damage or the loss
of a road wheelwhich the wheel nut loosen.

An additional safety feature of the Loose Wheel Nut Indicator is its heat sensitivity, when higher than normal operational temperature are reached, the Loose Wheel Nut Indicator is designed to melt indicating an imminent bearing failure or braking issues.

The Loose Wheel Nut Indicator is fixed to the wheel nut by gripping the six corners of the hexagon of the wheel nut. When the wheel is being fitted out, the Loose Wheel Nut Indicator pointers should be aligned and set in a recognizable pattern. Should a wheel nut loosen off, the Loose Wheel Nut Indicator has no option but to move with the nut and so break the recognizable pattern that was set, thus indicating the wheel nut has begun to rotate and therefore to loosen.

Loose Wheel Nut Indicator is available in an extensive range of sizes and colours, our current size and colour are  available for custom orders.  The size refers to the 'across the flats' dimension of the wheel nut hexagon in millimeters. A simple and accurate means of measuring the  wheel nut size is to use an un-worn socket as it is important that the correct size of Loose Wheel
Nut Indicator is fitted to the wheel nut. They should be a tight slide fit down to the washer of the wheel nut or wheel hub face leaving a small nominal (say 0.5 mm) air gap between the two surfaces.

Why should we use Loose Wheel Nut Indicators(10 reasons):

1. Provides a simple, visual means of confirming proper wheel torque in seconds.

2. Reduce your risk of wheel detachment accidents. (Protect the public, help prevent property and load damage.)

3. Lower your maintenance costs by eliminating unnecessary re-torquing.

4. Quickly identify a hot wheel possibly caused by bearing failure or brake drag.

5. Decrease equipment downtime.

6. Facilitates official roadside inspections.

7. Clearly visible at night and in bad weather (rain, snow, muddy conditions).

8. Easy to install.

9. Cost is only a few dollars per wheel.

10. Pays for itself in just one unnecessary re-torque procedure.
