What is a TCS SPOKE

Close up of the TCS spoke and the square sector

A TCS spoke has a special square-shaped section that makes it easy to grip the spoke. This design allows you to hold the spoke steady while adjusting the nipple (the small part that tightens the spoke) to avoid twisting. As a result, the spoke stays properly aligned without unnecessary stress or damage. This reduces the chances of the spoke bending, breaking, or wearing out over time, making it more durable and reliable. This is especially true for straight-pull spokes.

 

Benefit:

  • Prevents Damage: The square section lets you grip the spoke and avoid twisting, reducing stress and the risk of damage.
  • Enhanced Durability: By minimizing stress, the spoke is less likely to bend, break, or wear out over time.
  • Precise Wheel Truing: Ensures the spoke remains aligned for a flawless and accurate wheel adjustment.

These advanced TCS grippers are options of our lacing machines and the Robot-OT, providing unmatched accuracy and consistency. For more info click down below, or contact us!
