These nuts were used for several functions in various Volkswagen models. They are used as a bearing nut for the front wheel on the right side, to fasten the ball joint to the spindle, to fasten the steering wheel to the tie rod, and as a lock nut for the ball joint on the tie rod.

For the function of the steering wheel nut, complete years are stated for some models, so the chassis number is then important:
