2. Castellated nut - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Castellated_nut

   The nut is torqued properly and then, if the slot is not aligned with the hole in the fastener, the nut is rotated forward to the nearest slot. The nut is then secured with a split pin/cotter pin, R-clip or safety wire. It is a positive locking device. [1] Castellated nuts are used in low-torque applications, such as holding a wheel bearing in ...

3. Wheel hub assembly - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wheel_hub_assembly

   A roller bearing between the axle hub and axle shaft ensures easy rotation of the non-drive wheels. On the axle side, it is mounted to the holding bracket from the chassis; on the disc side, the wheel is mounted to the bolts of the WHA. When replacing, a wheel hub assembly should be torqued to the vehicle's specifications to prevent failure. [1]

4. Centerlock wheel - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Centerlock_wheel

   A hollow, tapered shaft centers the wheel on the hub. Torque is transmitted by pins and matching holes at the hub-wheel interface. The retaining nut requires a large amount of torque to secure, therefore a long-handled torque wrench or a powerful impact wrench (also called a "wheel gun") is used to

5. Axle - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Axle

   Full-floating axle shafts are retained by a flange bolted to the hub, while the hub and bearings are retained on the spindle by a large nut. In contrast, a semi-floating design carries the weight of the vehicle on the axle shaft itself; there is a single bearing at the end of the axle housing that carries the load from the axle and that the ...

6. Bolted joint - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bolted_joint

   Either the bolt head or the nut can be torqued. If one has a larger bearing area or coefficient of friction it will require more torque to provide the same target preload. [10] Fasteners should only be torqued if they are fitted in clearance holes. Torque wrenches do not give a direct measurement of the preload in the bolt.

7. Lug nut - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lug_nut

   From left: 9 lug nuts and 4 lug nut attached to screw-in wheel studs. A bolt circle with four lug nuts on an Acura. A lug nut or wheel nut is a fastener, specifically a nut, used to secure a wheel on a vehicle. Typically, lug nuts are found on automobiles, trucks (lorries), and other large vehicles using rubber tires.
