Value Collection 98061 Capped Wheel Nut 1/2-20 Stainless Steel

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 98061 is a capped wheel nut designed for secure wheel fastening in automotive and light-truck applications. The cap covers the exposed end of the stud, protecting threads from corrosion and road debris while giving the wheel a finished appearance. It features a 1/2-20 thread size, a 3/4-inch hex drive, and an overall length of 1-5/8 inches. The 60-degree conical seat angle provides positive centering and clamping force against compatible wheel seats. The stainless steel finish coating resists rust and maintains appearance under typical road and weather exposure. Installation is performed by automotive technicians and fleet service professionals using standard hand tools or an impact wrench.

This capped wheel nut is suited for wheel replacement, wheel swap, and routine tire service on vehicles with 1/2-20 threaded wheel studs and 60-degree conical seat wheels. It is appropriate for passenger vehicles and light-duty trucks where a capped nut style is specified. Technicians working on custom wheels, aftermarket rims, or corrosion-prone applications will find the stainless finish coating particularly useful for long-term appearance and thread protection.
