DUSTITE®

A Checkpoint original combined wheel nut indicator and dust cap designed for wheels without trims and step rings

Dustite® provides an indication of nuts loosening on a wheel or when a wheel is overheating with the added benefit of protecting from extreme outdoor weather elements, corrosion and general wear and tear.

FUNCTION

The Dustite® combines a loose wheel nut indicator and a protective cap. Ideal for commercial vehicles.

The Dustite® can indicate movement of the wheel nuts and protect them from a wide range of external elements such as water, dirt, road salts and rust build up. By placing the Dustite® in a recognisable pattern on the vehicle wheels such as point to point, any movement of the nut is clearly visible at a glance during visual checks. The Dustite® will also melt to indicate any overheating issues.
