Abstract
A dual size lug nut for securing an automobile wheel to a hub. From a central head portion of the nut, threaded shanks extend in opposite direction. The two shanks have different threads. Thus the nut may be screwed onto either of two sizes of stud bolts, depending on which end of the nut is threaded onto the bolt. In this way the inventory of parts may be reduced, in that a single type or style of nut will serve alternatively either of two sizes of stud bolts. A cap or plug covers the exposed outward facing bore.
