Abstract: A simulated knock off wheel spinner nut which can be attached to a wheel without having to remove the wheel from the vehicle. The simulated nut is sized to be partially inserted into the hub opening of the wheel and then locked in position by a plurality of rigid tabs located about the inner circumference of the spinner nut and maintained in place by set screws with their heads accessible from the outer circumference of the nut. By tightening these screws, each tab is drawn tightly against the inside wall of the hub securing the nut to the wheel.
Abstract: A one-step wire-wheel sealing system for pneumatic spoke wheels is disclosed in which a hot-melt adhesive is applied in molten form to the dropped spoke well of a metal wheel rim and is then cooled in place to form an adherent, resilient annular ring which prevents rotation of the spoke fasteners and leakage of inflation gas between the spoke ends and the spoke holes in the rim.
Abstract: A simulated knock off wheel spinner nut and adapter for attaching the nut to a wheel without having to remove the wheel from the vehicle. The adapter is sized to be inserted into the hub opening of the wheel and then locked in position by tightening a plurality of outwardly extending set screws located about the circumference of the adapter into the inside wall of the hub opening. The adapter is further provided with threads to receive the simulated spinner nut.
