Wheelsure – A Revolution in Road Safety

Revolutionary technology that will help save lives has been developed and patented by Wheelsure Ltd. The product is a unique wheel nut locking device that stops wheel nuts from loosening, therefore preventing the potentially fatal loss of a wheel. This significant technological breakthrough provides fleet engineers with the ultimate solution to the issue of wheel loss as well as potentially reducing maintenance costs.

Innovative technology lies at the core of this new product. The modified wheel stud and counter-threaded locking cap work together so that should the wheel nut start to loosen, the locking cap will immediately tighten against the nut, ensuring that it will not come off.

Jim Shuttleworth - ex general manager of EvoBus (UK) Ltd and now Wheelsure’s chairman – explains: “Wheel loss has been an issue in the industry for a long time and we have seen examples of even the best maintained fleets suffering from wheel nuts loosening. I really believe we now have a product that will prevent such instances - and their potentially devastating consequences - from occurring.”

“We are currently trialling the product with two major UK fleets”, Shuttleworth continues, “and will be launching the new product range in the early part of 2004, supported by a full product launch at the CV Show in March.”
