It’s a familiar story at workshops across the country: you’re attempting to remove a wheel nut, but it’s so damaged and rounded-off that the socket is just turning on it.
Or, worse still, you’ve lost your locking wheel nut key.
New from Laser Tools is this locking wheel nut removal kit: a solution for tackling stubborn, damaged rounded-off wheel bolts, or locking wheel nuts or bolts when the key is lost.
The kit features eight sizes of internally-threaded and tapered removal sockets; a suitable-sized removal socket is hammered over the offending wheel nut or bolt and it is then simply unscrewed using the appropriate wheel brace or socket and breaker-bar.
An air-hammer adaptor is also provided to speedily fit the removal socket if required.
The damaged wheel nut is then pressed out of the removal socket using the supplied extraction screw – this is particularly useful when using the kit at the roadside.
Designed to meet the needs of service centres, tyre fitting bays, and roadside recovery drivers, this set comes in a sturdy metal carry-case for easy storage and transport. The tools are mounted in a foam insert which can also be removed from the case for convenient tool tray storage.
