Overview:
The 40mm Wheel Nut Indicator is a push-fit, visual safety marker for checking wheel nut movement on road and off‐road vehicles.

This simple device helps confirm that nuts remain tight between services, supporting safer operation of HGVs, buses, vans with twin rear wheels, trailers, construction plant, and agricultural machinery. The bright colour aids visibility in low light or dirty environments. Manufacturer Part Number (MPN): 310 040.
