SKU:1677364 Item#: 1677364
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.
