The Surepoint Loose Wheel Nut Indicator is a simple and cost effective safety device that indicates the potentially dangerous rotation of a wheel nut on heavy vehicles.
The Surepoint Loose Wheel Nut Indicator gives a clear visual indication of nut rotation or nut absence to drivers, transport managers and mechanics as part of their routine daily vehicle inspection.
Whilst wheel nuts can be checked with a torque wrench, wheel studs cannot without the aid of a laboratory test. In addition it cannot be assumed that wheel nuts set at the correct torque at the beginning of a journey will be at the correct torque at the end, leaving the vehicle operator with an element of uncertainty when a HGV is taken onto the road.
The Loose Wheel Nut Indicator is made from low density polyethylene, a thermoplastic with a melting point of 120°C, also giving it the ability to indicate an overheating hub, associated with bearing failure and over-heating brakes.
The Surepoint Loose Wheel Nut Indicator is a patented product supplied to transport companies and is widely recognised as the original wheel safety product within the road transport industry.
The Surepoint Loose Wheel Nut Indicator is supplied in yellow and red as standard, and contains a UV-blocker to prevent product weathering. Available in the following sizes:
