Specifications

Upgrade your bike build with the DT Swiss ProLock Hexhead Alloy Nipple - a premium component designed for precision, durability, and ease of use. Crafted from high-grade aluminum, this 14g/14mm black nipple features advanced engineering to ensure a seamless wheel-building experience and long-lasting performance.

Materials & Construction:

Made from cold-forged aluminum, the DT Swiss ProLock Hexhead Alloy nipple combines lightweight strength with superior durability. The cold forging process guarantees consistent quality and high tensile strength, making it ideal for demanding cycling applications. The black anodized finish not only provides corrosion resistance but also adds a sleek, professional aesthetic to your wheelset.

Performance & Engineering:

Designed with innovative ProLock technology, these nipples come pre-treated with a special compound on the threads, reducing the risk of loosening and ensuring reliable tension retention. The 14mm length and precise 2.0mm spoke thread interface allow for a full run-through, facilitating easier truing and accurate tensioning during wheel assembly. The 2mm taller Hexhead (only in 14g models) provides improved leverage and grip with a standard wrench, making installation and adjustments effortless.

Components & Technology:

The Hexhead design features a unique 4-sided flats at the rim protrusion, in addition to the Hexhead at the nipple head, providing multiple engagement points for your tools. This dual interface optimizes torque transfer and minimizes slip during installation. The Form-A design ensures a smooth fit within rim holes, contributing to precise wheel alignment and tension distribution.

Style & Use Case:

Ideal for professional wheel builders and avid cyclists aiming for lightweight, reliable components, the DT Swiss ProLock Hexhead Alloy nipples excel in high-performance road, mountain, and gravel bike builds. Their sleek black finish complements a wide range of rim styles, offering both aesthetic appeal and functional excellence.

Innovative Features:

- ProLock thread treatment for enhanced security

- Hexhead and flat wrench interface for versatile installation

- Full run-through thread design for consistent tensioning

- Made in Switzerland to meet the highest quality standards
