VIDEO: Wheel Solutions explains how to torque your caravan wheel bolts

Richard demonstrates the 'star-shape' technique for wheel torquing

by Chris Jefferies
One of the most important, and yet oft neglected, caravan chores is the job of tightening your wheel bolts, or torquing as it’s often called.
In this video, CaravanTimes meets Richard Moorse from Wheel Solutions, who tells us how to carry out this task properly.
He explains that wheel bolts can work themselves free if they are too loose or they can shear off altogether if they are too tight.
For this reason, it’s a good idea to invest in a good quality torque wrench to do the job, as Richard explains, and we find out how often this job is meant to be repeated.
