The Checkpoint Original® is a pioneer in the global market. The first ever product to provide a wheel nut movement indication on vehicles. Finding it’s way from its UK origin, this safety concept has gradually spread throughout the world and still continues to grow in popularity day-by-day.

The Checkpoint Original® wheel nut movement indicator is in high demand globally, being a core product from the Checkpoint-Safety range. Available in a wide range of sizes, the Checkpoint® aims to cover a wide scope of applications throughout commercial, industrial, rail, military and agricultural sectors, among many others.

The primary functions of Checkpoint Original® are to:

·      Provide a clear visual indication of wheel nut movement, which is particularly useful and applicable in the commercial vehicle sector.

·      Provide an indication of wheel overheating which is otherwise difficult to detect, usually as a result of brakes sticking or problems with the bearings, through the use of specific product material melting points (Standard, High Temperature and Ultra High Temperature options available)

·      Provide a clear visual commitment to roadworthiness and professionalism to other road users, customers, health and safety, road and transportation associations such as DfT, HMRC Customs and Excise, VOSA, HSE, FTA and RHA

The primary benefits of fitting Checkpoint Original® are:

✓ Improved safety of fittings where nuts are a critical structural component, such as on vehicle wheels, rail track and industrial/commercial structures.

✓ Facilitates the ease of walk around and visual checks or audits to locate problems with fixtures or fittings where nuts are used as a critical component.

✓ Reduction in maintenance costs resulting from accurate locating of nut loosening or wheel overheating.

✓ Reduction in vehicle downtime.

✓ Improved professionalism, roadworthiness and safety related company image or reputation.

✓ Cost effective and easy solution to implement.
