Value Collection 98046 M12x1.5 Capped Wheel Nut Chrome

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 98046 is a capped wheel nut designed for M12x1.5 threaded wheel studs. It features a 21mm hex drive, a 27mm overall length, and a 60-degree conical seat angle. The chrome finish provides a clean appearance and basic corrosion resistance. This style of nut uses a decorative cap over a hardened steel base, protecting the nut body and stud threads from road debris and moisture. Automotive technicians and wheel service professionals install this type of fastener when securing wheels on passenger vehicles and light trucks that use the M12x1.5 thread pitch.

Capped wheel nuts with a 60-degree conical seat are commonly used on a wide range of passenger cars and light-duty vehicles where the wheel hub accepts a tapered seat fastener. This nut is sold individually per package, with a minimum order quantity of two pieces. It is appropriate for use in shop environments where replacement wheel hardware is needed during tire service, wheel swap, or wheel refinishing operations.

Installation Notes

Wheel nut installation should be performed by a qualified automotive technician using a calibrated torque wrench to meet vehicle manufacturer torque specifications. Always confirm the seat angle and thread pitch match the wheel and hub before installation. Never use an impact wrench for final torque on capped wheel nuts, as this can damage the decorative cap and cause improper seating. Verify that threads are clean and free of damage before installation.
