Product Details
Universal Wheel Checks by Tectran®. High temperature wheel checks are available for application where heavy load vehicles stop frequently and will heat up the wheel to greater that 250° F in normal operation. For example this situation occurs with some transit bus fleets. The solution is High Temperature Wheel Checks with a maximum temperature rating of 450° F.

Temperature-sensitive polymer detects bearing or brake overheating problems by deforming at temperatures above 120°C/250°F. Will withstand extreme cold temperatures (-75°C/-100°F) without cracking.Wheel Nut indicators are applied pointing in a uniform clockwise direction after ensuring proper wheel torque (apply with "lip" toward wheel). An indicator will rotate counter-clockwise if wheel nut loses torque. Provides a visual commitment to safety to the public and to transportation authorities. Drivers, mechanics or inspectors can confirm proper wheel torque or identify bearing or brake overheating problems at a glance. Reduces costly wheel stud wear and breakage due to continuous re-torquing (stud manufacturers recommend stud replacement after 3 torques). Reusable on replacement wheels.
