The Safewheel® wheel nut retaining ring comprises of separate protective nut caps specially moulded together to form a ring that sits onto a set of wheel nuts on a commercial vehicle to help to protect and retain them.
The Safewheel® is a wheel nut safety solution that not only incorporates a safety function to improve the integrity of the vehicle but also provides protection to other road users. The product itself is durable, reusable, simple to use and looks highly professional on fleet vehicles. In order to meet a wide range of vehicle requirements, it can be offered in a range of sizes and colours. Safewheel® rings are sold as single units, with each ring covering one wheel. A full vehicle set will need one ring per wheel.
