Clarkes buys peace of mind from Wheelsure

Clarkes of London (Coaches) Ltd has ordered 15 complete sets of Wheelsure Ltd’s new wheel nut locking device. The devices are to be fitted to their new intake of 15 Scania K114-1B vehicles, to be delivered during April.

Mrs Deborah V Newman, managing director of Clarkes of London explains: “We as a company have always been at the forefront of safety issues and I believe that this addition to our vehicles will add substantially to our commitment to safety.” She continues: “The service and maintenance schedules on our own vehicles are of the highest standard and we do stress that as a company we have not previously experienced nut loosening problems, but we cannot and will not take chances. We are aware that there is a major problem with this issue within the industry and, as a responsible operator, such a system must add to safety and security.”

Wheelsure’s patented wheel safety device uses a modified wheel stud along with a counter-threaded locking cap that covers the wheel nut and holds it in place. In the event of the nut coming undone, the left hand threaded locking cap will immediately start to tighten against the nut, ensuring that it will not come off.
