An adjustable multi nut tighter or remover for car tyre (with 114.3 PCD) was developed. The need to loosen and tighten car wheel nuts with little application of force (torque) and time spent is of great importance to most car users. Operation with the existing common instruments like ratchet, socket and impact wrench is quite tedious and time consuming. This study was aimed at designing and fabricating a device that will remove and tighten four-wheel nuts of car tyre simultaneously. The design was done using Solidworks CAD software. The device was successfully fabricated, and performance evaluation was carried out. The tightening and loosening of nuts were done with ease as evident from the results obtained. From the performance evaluation of the developed machine, it took 65 seconds to loosen four nuts and 75 seconds to tighten the nuts and the loosening and tightening process were reduced by 41% and 38% respectively compared to using L shaped wrench. Ergonomics consideration was put in place in designing this device as it can be used with ease by both man and woman. The device is also easy to maintain, easy to handle and able to remove and tighten four-wheel nuts of car tyre at once.
