An offset the thickness of just a couple of playing cards can result in out-of-tolerance radial wheel runout.
Advanced Wheel Centering
Pilot Sleeve™ is a U.S. Patented & International Patent Pending wheel centering system that works in conjunction with your OEM style two-piece flange nuts. The unique self-sizing & non-corrosive inserts are made to take-up the gap between the stud and the wheel opening, re-aligning the wheel to the TRUE CENTER of the hub bearing.
Over time, the pilots on the hub can lose tolerances originally intended from the factory, allowing an offset between the wheel and the hub bearing.
At a fraction of the cost of competitive brands, Pilot Sleeve™ wheel centering inserts promote proper lug nut clamping force, counteracting runout that can lead to dangerous wheel “clocking” and potential wheel-off conditions.
Pilot Sleeve™ services all hub-piloted wheels, including Steer Wheels, Drive Wheels, Steel Wheels & Aluminum Wheels.
Fleets, OEM’s & Tire Dealer customers all enjoy increased fuel economy, tire life & safety when utilizing Pilot Sleeve™ wheel centering inserts.
