Checklink Keeps an Eye on Wheel Nuts

Marketed by Martins Industries, the Checklink combines a wheel nut loosening indicator and a retaining device, allowing it to signal any nut movement while also helping to keep them in place.

The Checklink will also melt to indicate any wheel overheating issue, signaling a problem in the hub or braking system. Depending on the chosen version, the device will melt at either 125 degrees Celsius or 165 degrees Celsius.
