Free from corrosion and dirt 30 January 2025

New from Laser Tools is this HGV Stud and Hub Cleaning kit, designed for professional preparation of heavy goods vehicle wheel studs and hubs. This robust kit effectively removes corrosion and dirt, ensuring clean contact surfaces for safe wheel refitting.

Suitable for most HGV wheel studs up to 28mm in diameter, the kit includes six abrasive disc sizes – 50mm x 12mm, 50mm x 13mm, 50mm x 14mm, 60mm x 16mm, 60mm x 22mm, and 60mm x 28mm. With the abrasive material impregnated throughout the pad, they quickly and effectively remove corrosion and dirt from the stud threads as well as around the base of studs on the hub. This facilitates correct and secure wheel fitment.

The ½ inch drive adaptor features a locking sleeve with a knurled ring to aid fitting and removing the abrasive discs. With this ½ inch square drive connection, you have the time-saving convenience of being able to use the same impact wrench or air gun that was used to remove the wheel nuts.
