Product Information

Full details

The Stronghold Caravan Wheel Clamp is designed for caravan, trailer, and motorhome owners seeking a robust security solution against tow-away theft. Its key benefit is providing a highly visible deterrent that locks onto the wheel rim, preventing rotation and making the vehicle immobile. A potential caveat is its specific fitment for 13-15 inch wheel rims with tyre sizes between 165mm and 205mm.

FAQs

What does 'Sold Secure Gold' mean?

Sold Secure Gold is a high security rating awarded by Sold Secure, an independent testing house. It signifies that the product has met rigorous attack tests and is considered a highly effective deterrent against theft.

Will this clamp fit over my caravan's alloy wheel spokes?

The clamp locks onto the rim of the wheel, not over the tyre. Its design aims to be compatible with most standard alloy wheel designs, but very large or unusually shaped spokes could potentially interfere. It is specifically designed for alloy wheels.

How do I know if my caravan's tyre size is compatible?

The clamp is compatible with tyre sizes ranging from 165mm to 205mm in width. You can find your tyre size information on the sidewall of your tyre.

Can I leave this clamp on the wheel while driving?

No, this wheel clamp is designed for security when the vehicle is stationary. It must be removed before the vehicle is driven.

What is included with the Stronghold Caravan Wheel Clamp?

The product is supplied with the wheel clamp itself, 2 x M12x 1.5mm pitch wheel bolts, a fixing kit, a holder, and three keys.

How heavy is the clamp?

The clamp weighs approximately 6.1kg.

Is this clamp suitable for steel wheels?

This clamp is specifically designed for alloy wheels. While it might physically fit some steel wheels, its locking mechanism and design are optimized for alloy wheel rims.

Troubleshooting

Clamp is difficult to fit

Ensure the tyre size and wheel rim diameter are within the specified range (165-205mm tyre, 13-15 inch rim). Check that the wheel is clean and free of obstructions. Ensure the clamp is oriented correctly before attempting to lock.

Locking mechanism is stiff

Apply a small amount of graphite-based lubricant to the keyhole. Ensure the key is fully inserted before turning. Check for any debris in the lock.

Key will not turn

Verify you are using the correct key and that it is fully inserted into the lock. Try gently wiggling the key while turning. Ensure the clamp is fully engaged before attempting to lock.

Visible rust or corrosion

Clean the affected area with a soft brush. Apply a rust inhibitor spray suitable for metal. Ensure the clamp is dried thoroughly after use and stored in a dry environment.
