Value Collection 98097 Capped Wheel Nut M12x1.5 Chrome

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 98097 is a capped wheel nut designed for automotive wheel fastening applications. It features an M12x1.5 thread size, a 21mm hex drive, and a 30mm overall length. The 60-degree conical seat angle ensures proper centering and load distribution against the wheel hub face. A chrome finish provides corrosion resistance and a clean appearance. This nut is installed by automotive technicians and wheel service professionals during tire changes, wheel swaps, and brake service work.

This capped wheel nut is suited for passenger vehicles and light trucks that use M12x1.5 threaded wheel studs with a 60-degree conical seat. The capped design covers the exposed stud end, protecting threads from road debris, moisture, and corrosion. It is commonly used in wheel installation and replacement scenarios where a chrome cosmetic finish is specified or preferred by the vehicle owner or fleet operator.

Compatibility

Designed as a replacement or supplemental wheel nut for passenger vehicles and light trucks using M12x1.5 threaded wheel studs with a 60-degree conical seat. Verify thread pitch, seat angle, and hex size against vehicle specifications before installation.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a qualified automotive technician using a calibrated torque wrench and the appropriate 21mm metric socket. Always confirm the correct seat angle and thread pitch match the vehicle wheel and hub before torquing. Consult the vehicle manufacturer torque specification for final tightening — do not rely on impact tools alone for final torque. Inspect wheel studs for damage or contamination before installing new hardware.
