Disc-Lock Europe is exhibiting its award winning Disc-Lock Safety Wheel Nut at the Commercial Vehicle Show at the NEC in Birmingham.

Disc-Lock is a free-spinning, vibration proof wheel nut, specifically designed to prevent wheel loss from commercial vehicles such as trucks, trailers and buses with spigot mounted wheel fixings.

Disc-Lock Safety Wheel Nuts are considered to be far superior in terms of safety than standard two-piece wheel nuts.

The combination of lateral bending forces on the road-wheels due to cornering and torsional forces due to braking and acceleration, which result in settling and looseness of normal bolted assemblies, cause Disc-Lock Safety Wheel Nuts to maintain the clamping force and to lock, thus keeping the wheels secure on the axle.
