Additional information
Safewheel™ is designed to be fitted on wheels without trims/step rings. Where a trim/step ring is fitted to the wheel, Dustite LR® indicators must be used. Safewheel™ is fitted onto wheel nuts once the nuts have been tightened to the manufacturers recommendations using a suitable torque wrench. The Safewheel™ should not be used as a direct replacement for a sound, safe vehicle wheel maintenance schedule, should be fitted in accordance with the product guidelines (available from the downloads tab) and used in combination with a robust wheel safety system of checks.
Manufactured in a robust but lightweight polymer, the material blend produces a product with the correct stiffness and elongation for this application and the material has a vast working temperature range of -40°C to +120°C whilst being UV stable, with a high resistance to salts, grease and other roadside chemicals.
Safewheel™ is for EU-spec wheel PCD, and are sized by the corresponding measurement (in millimetres) across the flats of the hexagonal nut fitting, along with a measurement (also in millimetres) of pitch circle diameter (PCD). Current sizes available* include (in mm):
