Abstract
A capped wheel nut assembly in which a cap is sleeved over a nut. The cap has an outwardly flared marginal portion at the open end crimped over a circular enlargement on the nut. An O-ring seal is compressed between the marginal portion of the cap and the circular enlargement of the nut, to prevent the entry of moisture between the cap and the nut.
