M16 x 1.5 refers to the thread size. 'M16' indicates a metric thread with a nominal diameter of 16 millimeters, and '1.5' indicates the pitch, meaning there are 1.5 millimeters between each thread crest.
You must compare the dimensions provided (Spline diameter 16.6mm, Spline depth 8.5mm, Thread size M16 x 1.5, Thread length 43mm) with your existing wheel studs and hub. If they match exactly, they are likely compatible. If in doubt, consult a professional.
These studs are specifically designed for trailers and caravan hubs. Their dimensions and thread specifications may not be compatible with car wheel hubs. Always verify compatibility before attempting installation.
The spline is the ribbed or serrated section of the stud that fits into a corresponding splined hole in the wheel hub. This provides a non-rotating fit, ensuring the stud stays firmly in place under load.
This listing is for a pack of 10 replacement wheel studs.
If a wheel stud is damaged, rusty, or broken, it should be replaced immediately to ensure wheel safety. Use these OEM standard replacements after confirming compatibility.
Double-check that the spline diameter (16.6mm) and spline depth (8.5mm) match the original hub hole exactly. Ensure you are trying to fit it into the correct M16 x 1.5 thread size opening if it's a threaded stud application. If dimensions match, the hub may be damaged or deformed; consult a professional.
Confirm that the thread size is M16 x 1.5 and that both the stud threads and the hub's receiving threads are clean and undamaged. Ensure the stud is being inserted straight and not at an angle.
The stud may not be fully seated in the hub's spline or the thread may not be engaged properly. Remove the stud and re-inspect both the stud and the hub for damage. Ensure the stud is pressed or threaded in completely and securely.
Compatibility Check: Before fitting, it is essential to meticulously compare the new wheel stud with the original part. Verify that the spline diameter (16.6mm), spline depth (8.5mm), thread size (M16 x 1.5), and overall dimensions are identical. If there is any doubt, consult a qualified mechanic or trailer specialist.
Installation: Proper installation is crucial for safety. Ensure the stud is seated correctly in the hub. If replacing multiple studs, it is often recommended to replace them in pairs on the same axle. Use appropriate tools to press or thread the stud into place, ensuring it is fully seated and perpendicular to the hub surface. Do not overtighten.
Care: These studs are made from high-grade material for durability. However, to ensure longevity, keep the stud threads clean and free from excessive dirt or debris. Inspect studs regularly for any signs of wear, damage, or corrosion, especially before and after long journeys.
