Q.D. Rear Wheel Complete 1 6T
Complete quickly-detachable rear wheel assembly for the 6T, not fitted to U.S.A.-spec machines.
This is the complete quickly-detachable rear wheel assembly listed for the 6T in the catalog, part number 37-1746, also shown as W1746 in older references. The figure title notes it as fitted to bikes outside the U.S.A. market, so if you're working on a machine that started life stateside, don't assume this is the wheel you had.

The Q.D. rear wheel setup was Triumph's answer to getting the rear wheel off quickly for a roadside puncture repair without disturbing the chain or brake linkage, a feature British market bikes carried that U.S. spec bikes generally didn't. As a complete assembly this would have come through as the full wheel build rather than a single component, so expect it to cover the hub, rim, and spokes as a unit.
Given the note restricting it from U.S.A. spec, confirm what your bike actually came with before ordering. If you've got a non-Q.D. rear end you may be looking at an entirely different wheel assembly rather than this one.
