About Torque-Tight™
Our Story
Torque-Tight™ started from a simple idea on a shop floor. As a fleet test engineer, I saw first-hand how a missing or loose lug nut could put entire fleets at risk. I approached the original founder, known for producing high-quality parking lot stencils, with a concept for a simple but powerful solution: a better lug nut indicator that stays on longer, is easy to install, and is Made in the USA. Together, we created the very first Torque-Tight™ lug nut indicator.
From Prototype to Fleet Safety
What began as a small project to support an OEM heavy-duty engineering test fleet quickly became a must-have product for fleet operators, maintenance managers, and safety-conscious drivers. The early prototypes proved that something as simple as a better visual wheel nut indicator could prevent costly downtime and serious accidents. From that moment, Torque-Tight™ was born, and our focus has remained the same: keeping wheels safe, secure, and on the road with better parts made in the USA.
Made in the USA
Every Torque-Tight™ lug nut indicator is proudly Made in the USA, with everything shipping from our shop in Michigan. From design to material sourcing and manufacturing, we are intentional about our partners and processes to ensure consistent quality and local accountability. Choosing Torque-Tight™ means choosing American-made fleet safety products that support domestic manufacturing while delivering dependable performance in real-world fleet operations.
