A visual alert to any movement

A wheel nut indicator is an essential tool to have on your fleet. Available in high-visibility colours and made from engineered plastic that’s designed to deform at high temperatures (for bearing failure), it’s never been easier for vehicle operators to visually notice when any nuts are out of alignment. 

It’s essential to choose the correct size of your wheel nut indicator so it can do its job effectively. A good spanner will be able to determine the correct size for your vehicle. Simply measure across the flat of the wheel nut hexagon in millimetres to find the right size.

The importance of your wheel nut indicators

If you can move the wheel nut with your fingers, it’s been loose for a while and can be extremely dangerous. If one wheel nut were to become loose, it causes a knock-on effect for the rest of the nuts. The vibrations will loosen the rest of them, and can cause your wheel to detach. Needless to say, this is dangerous for the driver and those sharing the road. 

The easiest way to determine whether your wheel nuts are loose is to add wheel nut indicators. Browse our wheel nut indicators range today.
