As the cam angle “α” is greater than the thread pitch “β”, a

wedge effect of the cams.

NORD-LOCK WHEEL NUTS ADVANTAGES NORD-LOCK ORIGINAL WASHERS


The wheel nuts use Nord-Lock wedge-locking technology to –– Prevents loosening caused by –– Suits flat faced steel rims Additionally, Nord-Lock original
secure wheels by maintaining a high clamp force, even under vibration and dynamic loads and regular tools washers have been used for many
severe operating conditions. A tightened Nord-Lock wheel nut –– Quick and easy to install and –– Reusable and durable years to secure critical vehicle
