Wheel nuts used in trucks are intended to ensure the tight fit of the wheels to the hubs. They are hexagonal elements. They are installed in combination with studs, including also captive studs that are fixed on the backside of the hub.
Types
The components are made of high-hardness steel by cold forging. To increase the resistance of the product to corrosion, manufacturers coat them with chrome, zinc, nickel, cadmium, or copper. While in passenger cars the number of wheel nuts may be four, in trucks this value often reaches twelve.
By the design:
- Classic nuts. With exposed thread. They are of a relatively low price.
- Cover nuts. With closed thread. They are durable, and protect inner parts of the fasteners from external factors.
Catalogue contain fasteners with different types of seat. They may have:
- spherical or ball seat;
- flat seat;
- conical or tapered seat;
- mag seat with washer.
Manufacturers offer various fastening parts for stamped and alloy wheels. They differ from each other by the length of the threaded part. The components also differ by the side of installation:
- right;
- left;
- universal.
Thread diameter of left and right hand wheel nuts for trucks is usually 18, 20 or 22 mm, and the pitch is 1.5 mm. Some types of wheel nuts have a bulge for a more secure fit.
Malfunctions and reasons thereof
The use of the parts in accordance with the recommendations of the manufacturer minimizes the risk of their self-unscrewing when driving. Loosening of the fasteners is possible as a result of significant mechanical loads, or insufficient tightening during installation. Besides, wheel nuts may get deformed, covered with cracks, for example, after hitting an obstacle. In case of long use of a truck in the conditions of high humidity, corrosion spots appear on the components.
How to detect faults
Routine maintenance of the assembly should be regularly done, and the tightening torque should be periodically checked with a torque wrench. If deformed or insufficiently tightened fasteners are detected during inspection, replacement is required. New elements should be installed with regard to the type of the wheel and to the intended operating conditions of the commercial vehicle. Safety directly depends on it.
