A simple solution to a complex problem
Rim-Lock® retainers have been created to instantly and securely lock a tyre and rim, wheel assembly, in place without the need for any manual interaction by a person.
Removing the human element from a crush zone, eliminates the risk of serious injury or fatality.
- STEP 01
The retainers are placed on the nave plate of the rim to be installed, at a point when the wheel assembly does not present any danger of uncontrolled movement to any person. They are securely held in place by the neodymium magnets embedded in the unit.
- STEP 02
The normal process of installing the wheel assembly to the vehicle, with the Tyre Handler, can start.
Rim-Lock® retainers contain a unique and patent protected internal mechanism that engages with the stud. It instantly locks onto the thread and secures the assembly to the hub of the vehicle. It does not require any rotation of the retainers to secure the load.
- STEP 03
Tyre fitters can fit all wheel nuts as per the normal process
- STEP 04
Remove the Rim-Lock retainers from the nave and return to the hardcase.
