So attach your wheel consistent with the other performance and maintenance requirements and when you get to design review state "I'm positive that this wheel is attached."

1. Verbal communication is maybe 25% effective.
2. Written communication with drawings in an agreed upon format, properly rendered, may hit 90% effective.
3. Neither rule is 100% true but either rule is better than thinking the communication is 100%
P.S. I like the image of a wheel in a shaft.

Otherwise, I would think lanyard for "positive attachment," but that wouldn't be appropriate for the described situation.

In this sense, it basically means "resists a reasonable amount of force in any direction," which makes sense insofar as terminology is concerned. I'd imagine that, for your application, it just means that the wheel won't slide on the shaft once attached.

It is a capital mistake to theorise before one has data. Insensibly one begins to twist facts to suit theories, instead of theories to suit facts. (Sherlock Holmes - A Scandal in Bohemia.)
