A wheel nut movement indicator designed for low loaders that also indicates any overheating of the wheel.
Checkpoint® original was invented over 30 years ago. This simple intelligent product is still regarded as the best and highest quality wheel nut indicator available on the market today.
Checkpoint® was the first-ever product of its kind on the global market to provide an indication of wheel nut movement on commercial vehicles. This clever solution helps to ensure that every truck driver and fleet operator can carry out quick and easy visual checks and audits on their vehicle wheels.
Checkpoint Short Arrow® has all the benefits of the Checkpoint® original but with a shortened arrow. This version enables to be fitted on smaller wheels (17.5 or 19 inch wheels) and on vehicles such as low loaders, double-deckers and trailers.
FUNCTION
The Checkpoint Short Arrow® visually indicates nut movement. By placing the Checkpoints in a recognisable pattern such as point to point, any movement of the nut is clearly visible at a glance. This assists the visual inspection of wheel nuts, identifying when a nut loosens, to help prevent the wheel from coming off. It also melts at a specific temperature to highlight any overheating issues with the wheel or application.
KEY BENEFITS
- An instant visual indicator of nut movement
- Indicates possible faults with breaks or bearings through melting
- Supports fleet safety checks
- Cost-effective and easy to implement
Checkpoint® Short Arrow provides a clear commitment to health and safety, and roadworthiness to other road users, and road and transportation associations such as: DfT, FORS, DVSA, HSE, FTA, and RHA.
