Easy-To-Install Unthreaded Pushnuts The installation process is straightforward. First, you need to ensure that you have a compatible axle rod/shaft or stud that will fit inside the pushnuts’ 0.625 inches (5/8 inches) inner diameter. If your axle is older, you may need to sand it first to remove the rust. Next, you’ll have to align the push nuts into the shaft’s end and then push or lightly tap them in with a mallet or hammer. You can use oil- based lubricants to make the pushnuts slide in easier. This type of wheel lock does not have threads instead, it has an inward-facing flange design that pushes the stud inwards, ensuring a secure hold with no room for movement. That’s why, once installed, you can no longer remove these zinc-plated pushnuts manually. No more lost pins, loose wheel locks, or washers and wheels popping out. Do you want to make certain that the pushnuts won’t pop out as you use your wheeled equipment on rough terrain? A drop of fastener adhesive will ensure that the pushnuts will stay on even no matter what!
