Do Trailers have Common Wheel Lug Nut Sizes for a Wheel Lock

Question:

I need to get locks for my boat trailer but Ive never bought any so I dont know if theres a specific size for lug nuts on a trailer.

There are common lug nut sizes found on trailers: 7/16, 1/2, 9/16, and 5/8 but the most common is 1/2 inch. If you can tell me the trailer weight capacity and wheel size/bolt pattern I can verify if they are likely to be 1/2 inch or another size.

If they are 1/2 inch we have wheel lock # RG01-150. Another option is a lock such as # WI490. With it the lug nut size won't matter. I have linked a video of this lock and included a link to the wheel locks we carry.

Mike: I have an ITT enclosed 6 by 10 trailer with 15 (?) inch wheels. It is stored at my friends. I want to pick up a lug wrench to put inside along with my spare tire and bottle jack. Do you know the size of the lugs and will a standard 4 prong lug wrench work? Thanks in advance, Chuck
