At Powerflex, we strive to innovate; using our in-house manufacturing capabilities and skilled design team to expand our product range and release new products, so this week, we introduce a new product suited to workshops and home tool kits.
Available singularly to suit a specific vehicle or as a handy 4-piece workshop kit, our new PowerAlign Wheel Mounting Guide Pins are designed to allow the safer mounting and easy alignment of heavy alloy wheels on most common cars to use bolts to fasten.

Each pin is assigned to its corresponding vehicle in our web listings, and we also have a wider-reaching application list available in the form of a new user-friendly drop-down search function.
Proven using simulated and real-world testing, the new mounting pins use high-strength CNC-machined AISI 303 Stainless Steel, some 50% stronger than plated mild steel, to ensure durability and resilience in a workshop environment, and are supplied with colour-coded 3D-printed protective sleeves for ease of identification and anodised 2011-T6 aluminium caps to absorb knocks and prevent paint damage to the wheel, unlike others on the market.
Simply thread the appropriate pin size into one of the bolt holes on the wheel hub. The wheel can then be lifted and placed on the guide pin, and easily slid into place on the hub; keeping the bolt holes aligned for other bolts to be inserted and tightened. This reduces the awkward and back-straining process of holding the wheel in place with one hand whilst lining up and threading in the first bolt; thus, reducing the risk, hassle, and strain of mounting wheels.

The individual pins come supplied in a handy reusable plastic twist tube for protection when not being used and the 4-piece workshop kit is supplied with a steel storage case for pride of place in your toolbox.
