Title: Stick on Wheel Weight (1)


1
Mastering Stick-On Wheel Weights
Stick on wheel weight are essential for vehicle
wheel balancing. They ensure ride comfort, extend
tire life, and enhance safety. The global market
is projected to reach 1.2B by 2028. Key players
include Plombco, Hennessy, Wegmann, and 3M.
2
The Critical Role of Wheel Balancing
Driver Comfort
Tire Wear
Safety
Unbalanced wheels cause vibrations, leading to
fatigue and discomfort.
Uneven wear can reduce tire life by up to 50,
increasing costs.
Reduced vehicle control, especially at high
speeds, poses safety risks.
3
Exploring Different Weight Types
Lead Weights
Steel Weights
Traditional, high density, but being phased out
due to environmental concerns.
A common, cost-effective alternative with good
density, capturing 60 market share.
Zinc Weights
Another lead-free option, with better corrosion
resistance than steel.
4
Application Best Practices
Wheel Prep
Clean with isopropyl alcohol remove old residue.
Weight Placement
Use a balancing machine to pinpoint imbalance.
Adhesion
Apply firm pressure to ensure proper adhesion.
5
The Advantages of Stick-On Weights
Versatility
Precise Placement
Reduced Damage
Can be used on alloy and steel wheels.
Fine adjustments in wheel balance.
Eliminates risk of scratching the wheel.
