Dustite LR Wheel Nut Indicator

Other Products

 

The Dustite® LR is a wheel nut dust cap indicator for use where wheel trims with wheel nut access holes have been fitted. Until now, the fitting of a wheel trim has made it difficult to effectively use the standard Dustite® or Checkpoint® Loose Wheel Nut indicator products.

The Dustite® LR design allows the indicator wheel nut cap to be mounted on the wheel nuts through the access holes in the trim so that the indicating pointers can be aligned on the outer surface of the trim and be visible at all times for walk-round safety and roadworthiness inspections and zero defect reporting.

The Dustite® LR offers the same operational benefits of the standard Dustite® loose wheel nut indicator dust cap from which it has been developed, they include;-

  • An extension of the service life of studs and wheel nuts
  • Helping to protect the stud and wheel nut from damage and corrosion
  • Aesthetic appeal and visual finish
  • Rationalizing the scheduling of the necessary wheel nut torque and retorque checks
  • The high visibility of the large pointer under operational road conditions.
  • Cost effective risk management
  • Implementation and adoption of enhanced fleet safety procedures
  • Driver and workshop personnel involvement with safety
  • Improved accuracy, reporting and recording of scheduled torque checks and start up walk-round inspections.

The Dustite® LR uses the same mounting principle and method of adjusting the pointer alignment as the Checkpoint® loose wheel nut indicator. The integrated design of the Dustite® LR fully encloses Spigot, Conical, or Spherical seated wheel nuts manufactured to ISO, DIN, or to BS standards. In application, when the Dustite® LR is mounted on a lightly greased wheel nut, it seals and helps protect the wheel nut and stud threads from the ingress of water and road debris that can cause corrosion of the wheel nut and stud threads.
