CHECKPOINT® Indicators - Yellow

Visual indicators to spot loosening of wheel nuts whilst help protecting them against the elements

• Material: PP - Polypropylene   
• Melting temperature: 125 °C

Checkpoint original® wheel nut indicators are a core product from Checkpoint range and is in high demand globally. The Checkpoint® is offered in a very large range of sizes to cover a wide scope of applications throughout industrial, agricultural. military, rail and commercial vehicle sectors amongst others.

The primary functions of Checkpoint original® are to:

• Provide a clear visual indication of nut movement, particularly useful and applicable for commercial vehicle wheels
• Provide an indication of wheel overheating which is otherwise difficult to detect, usually as a result of brakes sticking or problems with the bearings, through the use of specific product material melting points (Standard, High Temperature and Ultra High Temperature options available)
• Provide a clear visual commitment to roadworthiness and professionalism to other road users, customers, health and safety, road and transportation associations such as DFT , HMRC Customs and Excise , VOSA , HSE , FTA and RHA
•  

The primary benefits of fi tting Checkpoint original® are: 

Improved safety of fittings where nuts are a critical structural component, such as on vehicle wheels, rail track and industrial/commercial structures

 Facilitates the ease of walk around and visual checks or audits to locate problems with fixtures or fittings where nuts are used as a critical component

 Reduction in maintenance costs resulting from accurate locating of nut loosening or wheel overheating

 Reduction in vehicle downtime

 Improved professionalism, roadworthiness and safety related company image or reputation

 Cost effective and easy solution to implement

Additional information

Checkpoint original® Standard/High Temp (HT)/Ultra High Temp are all manufactured in the highest quality virgin polymers and are resistant to moisture/water, road salt, oil, detergents and most other common solvents/contaminants.

These are loose wheel nut indicators that is used extensively by the transport industry as an enhancement and development of fleet safety roadworthiness procedures, daily walk-round inspection and defect reporting and scheduled maintenance requirements. Its use allows accurate monitoring for loose wheel nuts and helps prevent wheel hub damage or the loss of a road wheel should a wheel nut loosen.  Application  It is fixed to the wheel nut by gripping the six corners of the hexagon of the wheel nut. When the wheel is being fitted out the Checkpoint pointers should be aligned and set in a recognisable pattern. Should a wheel nut loosen off, the Checkpoint has no option but to move with the nut and so break the recognisable pattern that was set, thus indicating the wheel nut has begun to rotate and therefore to loosen.  The size refers to the 'across the flats' dimension of the wheel nut hexagon in millimetres. A simple and accurate means of measuring the wheel nut size is to use an un-worn socket as it is important that the correct size of Checkpoint is fitted to the wheel nut.  They should be a tight slide fit down to the washer of the wheel nut or wheel hub face leaving a small nominal (say 0.5 mm) air gap between the two surfaces.  Fitting  It is recommended that the initial fitting out of the vehicle is done in the course of scheduled maintenance or during a roadworthiness inspection or when a wheel nut torque check is scheduled.  The wheel nuts must be torqued to the recommended value before the Check points are fitted.  The Checkpoint should be a tight slide fit onto the wheel nut without the need for tools or any other assistance. This is also the case when there is a need to remove them.  Fit the Checkpoint so that the raised rim of the collar is outermost from the wheel nut washer, or the profile of the wheel. This eases removal by giving a finger purchase on the collar rim of the Checkpoint® without damage.  Any patterned configuration may be used so long as the movement away from the set pattern of one or more of the Checkpoint will be clearly visible on inspection.
