A
Lifetime Investment
The X-12 family of lug nut wrenches has been proven in the toughest markets in
the world --- truck and bus garages. Yet even with a three year parts and labor
warranty our repairman is more lonely than the Maytag Washer man! Your X-12 Lug
Nut Wrench is a lifetime investment --- something you pass on to the children.
Truckers and motorhome owners, utility companies, bus fleets, livestock
transporters, and loggers want to be sure it will work at night, in the field,
in Mexico, on the Alaskan highway, in the camp ground and on a holiday. The X-12
has a proven history that gives assurance.
How The X-12 Works
The X-12 (original) is for 22.5 and 24.5 wheels with 10 lugs. The socket goes on
the nut to be loosened (or tightened) and the stop arm fits over the next nut to
prevent the body of the wrench from turning. As you ratchet the handle back and
forth you easily loosen the nut. Just flip the switch on the ratchet handle to
turn the other direction for tightening. Other wrenches in the X-12 family and
the P-30 wrench do not "fit over" the next lug nut. The stop arm just
bumps into the next nut, stud, axle housing, hub or other object to stop the arm
from turning. The X-12 (original) is slightly preferred for 10 lug 22.5 and 24.5
wheels. It can often be used on other wheels but is not as versatile in fitting
5, 6, and 8 lug wheels as the X-12 Model 568 and the X-12 Plus. The output end
of the wrench is a 1" square drive for all X-12 lug nut wrenches. The P-30
Wrench has a 3/4" square drive. All wrench set prices include the proper
size sockets for your vehicle. Other size sockets are optional and sold
separately. There are also optional adapters to reduce from 1" to 3/4"
and from 3/4" to 1/2" square drive and vice versa (reducing adapters
are never warranted). The input end of all our lug nut wrenches accept 1/2"
square drive ratchets. Each lug nut wrench set comes with a reversible 14"
ratchet handle that also extends to 22" for ease in use. You may substitute
a 1/2" square drive torque wrench for our ratchet handle to properly torque
your wheels.
X-12 DOES THE JOB!
In general, Budd (dish shaped) wheels with 1 ½" lug nuts are supposed to
be set at 450 ft. lbs. torque if aluminum and 600 ft. lbs. if steel. Only a few
of the mightiest men can loosen 450 ft. lbs. with a 4-way wrench and it takes a
big cheater pipe to loosen 600 ft. lbs. However, the problem is much worse. Tire
shops, truckstops, and garages buy more and more powerful impact tools to loosen
not only lug nuts but even tougher spring hanger bolts, yoke nuts, etc. They
then use these same monsters to tighten your lug nuts to sometimes 1000 ft. lbs.
or more. No wonder we have thought removing these wheels would be impossible for
the owner to do himself.
Now there is an answer in the X-12 Geared Lug Nut Wrench. Without air or
electricity it can deliver over 3000 ft. lbs. of torque in the shop, by the
road, in the boonies, in the RV Park, or in the driveway. With three times the
power of the largest impact tools, it's what you need to easily loosen the
otherwise impossible wheels.
Gears multiply the torque in the X-12 by a 12 to 1 ratio. This means a 12
YEAR OLD CHILD OR 100 POUND WOMAN CAN LOOSEN THE LUG NUTS ON ANY TRUCK OR BUS!
If not, we refund all your money! We make this guarantee because it has been
repeatedly demonstrated at motor home and truck shows throughout the U.S. More
importantly, it has been demonstrated by thousands of happy owners throughout
the world. In fact, the X-12 is so powerful it is the back-up tool when impact
tools fail in truck and bus garages. Where once garages used cutting torches for
impossible nuts they now reach for the X-12 Geared Lug Nut Wrench.
For lighter chassis, we also offer a smaller 4 to 1 ratio gear wrench. Named the
P-30 Wrench, this smaller wrench is for lug nuts up to 1 ¼" requiring
torques up to 350 ft. lbs. It is not recommended nor guaranteed for 1 ½"
lug nuts.

All Product Descriptions
X-12
Original Wrench Set - Was designed for 22.5" and 24.5"
Budd (dish shaped) wheels with 10 lug nuts. That is to say that the spacing
between the socket and stop arm is designed for the socket to fit over one lug
nut and the stop arm to fit around the next adjoining tug nut. This prevents the
body of the wrench from turning as you easily move the ratchet handle back and
forth to loosen even the toughest lug nuts.
You just flip the switch on the ratchet handle to turn the other direction for
tightening. The standard packaging of the set includes the X-12 Original
wrench, ratchet handle, 1 1/2" socket, 13/16" adaptor for square nut,
two spare shear pins and either a metal or plastic carrying case. Buyers may
substitute other socket sizes when ordering.
NOTE: The X-12 Lug Nut Wrench can be used on
wheels other than 22.5 and 24.5 with 10 lugs and even for nuts and bolts other
than lug nuts. However, if the primary use of the wrench is to be on 5, 6, or 8
lug wheels, the X-12 Model 568 or the X-12 Plus
is recommended.
X-12 Model 568 Wrench Set - Has
the same features as the X-12 Original except the stop arm has a narrow foot to
bump against (instead of fitting around) the next lug nut. Occasionally, there
may be some problem of room for the stop arm on the X-12 Original to bump
against the next lug nut when being used on 5, 6, or 8 lug wheels. This is due
to design in wheel covers or the shape of the wheel itself. The X-12 Model 568
works with all bolt patterns whether 5,6,8, or 10 lugs.
Simply fit the socket over the lug nut to be loosened or tightened and allow the
stop arm to bump against the next lug nut. This prevents the body from turning
while you easily move the ratchet handle back and forth to loosen even the
toughest lug nuts. You just flip the switch on the ratchet handle to turn the
other direction for tightening.
The standard packaging of the set includes the X-12 Model 568 wrench, ratchet
handle, 1 1/2" socket, 13/16" adaptor for square nut, two spare shear
pins and either a metal or plastic carrying case.
Buyers may substitute other socket sizes when ordering.
X-12 Plus Wrench Set - The
most versatile of all the X-12 wrenches but is also a bit more complicated to
use with a different set-up for each wheel application: Outside duals
/ Inside duals with 13/16 square head inner nuts / front or rear
wheels using a single hex nut to secure both inner and outer wheels.
One of the principal advantages of the X-12 Plus is that it can hold the inside
(square head) nut while turning the outer cap nut when removing the outer dual
wheel. For this application you will remove the stop arm and install two
sockets: The first socket is a small socket to fit the 13/16 (square head) nut
that holds the inner wheel.
Over this socket place the larger 1 1/2" socket (not shown) that has
splines to mate with the splines on the wrench body. This permits the wrench to
hold the inner nut while loosening the outer cap (hex) nut. For other
applications install the stop arm and use the wrench as you would the X-12 Model
568.
The standard packaging of the set includes the X-12 Plus wrench, ratchet handle,
1 1/2" socket, 13/16" square nut socket, special 1 1/2" spline
socket. two spare shear pins and either a metal or plastic carrying case.
Buyers may substitute other socket sizes when ordering.
The P-30 Wrench Set - Is
a torque multiplier lug nut wrench with a powerful 4 to 1 gear ratio. For
lighter chassis we offer this smaller wrench designed for lug nuts up to 1
1/4" requiring torque settings up to 350 ft. lbs. It is not recommended nor
guaranteed for use on lug nuts that are 1 5/16", 1 1/2" or 1 5/8
" (33-41 mm).
It is best suited for motor homes built on Chevy, Ford, or Workhorse chassis,
and for light trucks, vans, utility trailers, and any other wheels with 1
1/4" or smaller lug nuts. The output end of the wrench is 3/4" square
drive; input is 1/2" square female.
When ordering you should indicate size socket needed up to
1 1/4".
The standard packaging of the set includes the P-30 wrench, ratchet handle,
3/4" x 1" socket, and carrying pouch. Buyers may substitute other
socket sizes when ordering.
