SKU:1677374 Item#: 1677374
Wheel-Checks are a loose wheel nut indicator that can identify a loose wheel nut with a simple visual inspection. When the wheel nuts are properly torqued to specs, the Wheel-Checks are then placed on the wheel nuts in a uniform pattern. Once a Wheel Nut has loosened, the Wheel-Check will become out of sequence. If there is a binding brake or seized bearing, the heat is transferred through the stud and nut. If this temperature exceeds 257 ºF, the Wheel-Check will start to blister around the circumference and eventually start to distort. The High Visibility Green assists Drivers in identifying potential maintenance concerns early.
Provides a simple, visual means of confirming proper wheel torque in seconds
Quickly identify a hot wheel possibly caused by bearing failure or brake drag
Facilitates official roadside inspections
Clearly visible at night and in bad weather (rain, snow, muddy conditions)
Reusable
Torque wheel nuts to proper specifications (recommended ft/lb)
Ensure correct size by measuring unit from flat to flat
Place one Wheel-Check over each nut with the raised collar towards the wheel
Hold the arrow of the indicator pointing in your preferred pattern
Push the Wheel-Checks on with a socket wrench or PVC pipe
