Description
A forged steel locking flange nut (hexagonal) with collar and non-standard thread. Designed for securing the break drum to the axel of a trailer. Dimensions 48 x 48 x 17mm. This flange nut has a deformable top rim and an M30x1.5mm thread. It requires a 46mm wrench / spanner /socket. This model is only suitable for certain trailer applications since 1997. The flange nuts are considered to be single-use because after their first use their ability to prevent unintentional loosening is reduced significantly.
