Value Collection 97256 Wheel Stud M12x1.5 42mm Oal

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 97256 is a wheel hub bolt wheel stud designed for use in automotive wheel assembly and hub applications. This stud features an M12x1.5 thread size, a 42mm overall length, and a 13.08mm knurl diameter that locks securely into the hub flange under press-fit installation. The 12.5mm shoulder length provides proper seating depth against the hub bore. This type of fastener is a standard replacement component used by automotive service technicians and fleet maintenance professionals when studs are damaged, corroded, or sheared during tire service.

Wheel studs of this specification are commonly installed in passenger vehicle and light-duty truck wheel hub assemblies where M12x1.5 metric thread fasteners are specified. The knurled shank is pressed into the hub flange, and the threaded end accepts a lug nut to secure the wheel. This stud is suited for shop use in brake, suspension, and wheel service applications. Minimum order quantity is 10 units, making this suitable for shop-stock replenishment.

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement wheel stud for passenger vehicles and light-duty trucks specifying an M12x1.5 thread pitch and corresponding hub bore dimensions.

Installation Notes

Wheel stud replacement is typically performed by automotive service technicians during brake, hub, or wheel bearing service. Before installation, raise and support the vehicle safely and remove the wheel and brake components as needed to access the hub. The old stud should be driven or pressed out, and the replacement stud pressed fully into the hub flange using an appropriate press or a stack of washers with the lug nut method. Do not use heat or impact tools to force the stud, as this may damage the hub bore or knurl engagement.
