Alko one shot nuts

Just replaced bearings on one wheel to find that I need to buy a new nut, as they're only usable once.

All fine, but mine is 24mm across the flats and 14mm across the threads. I can't find these online, they all seem to be 24 or 32mm across the flats.

Anyone have any experience of them? Wondering if they're a different size to caravan ones, which all the discussion threads I've been able to find are about.Click image for larger version
