Steel adhesive weights for truck and bus wheels
These are lead-free steel (Fe) adhesive weights for the inner barrel of truck, bus, trailer and heavy van wheels, which need corrections in tens or hundreds of grams. Clip-on weights are the traditional answer, but where the rim flange shape or wheel design makes them awkward or impossible to fit, a heavy adhesive block is often preferred.
Zinc plating protects against road salt and moisture on long-haul routes and in wash bays, and the tape choices match our passenger car strips, so technicians work with a familiar product, just heavier. Truck and bus tyre services, fleet depots and commercial vehicle parts distributors are the main buyers.
The two formats compared
The 50g x 2 strip has two 50g segments and can be split when a wheel only needs 50g. The single 100g block puts the whole correction in one piece and is faster when you regularly need the full weight. Many truck service centres keep both.
| Code | Format | Thickness |
|---|---|---|
| 025 | 50g x 2 strip (100g) | About 7 mm |
| 026 | Single 100g block | About 8.6 mm |
| Single block | Single 50g / 150g / 200g block, silver zinc plated or black, blue or 3M tape | Varies by weight |
If lead suits your market better, see the lead truck adhesive weights. For clip-on truck weights, see the extra-thick lead clip-on truck weights.
Which tape is right for heavy truck weights?
A 50g or 100g weight places much more load on the adhesive than a small car segment, so choose the tape carefully:
| Tape | Typical use |
|---|---|
| General blue tape | Standard adhesive for everyday workshop balancing |
| Premium blue tape | Higher-grade blue adhesive for buyers who want a stronger everyday tape |
| Wide-edge blue tape | Liner extends past the strip so it can be peeled quickly, even with gloves |
| 3M tape | Branded 3M adhesive for customers who specify a named tape |
| Norton tape | Branded Norton adhesive as an alternative named tape |
| Red / white tape | Colour-coded liners for separating ranges or private label packs |
Tell our sales team your climate, the routes your customers’ vehicles run and the rim types involved, and we will recommend a tape.

Need a lighter weight or a clip-on?
For vans and SUVs, which need less weight per correction, see the thick 15g-30g strips. Where the rim flange allows it, lead clip-on truck weights are another option worth considering.

Questions fleet buyers ask
Do these truck weights contain lead?
No. They are zinc plated steel (Fe), suitable where lead weights are restricted.
Can I split the 50g x 2 strip?
Yes. Use one 50g segment or both, depending on the correction.
How do I fit heavy blocks securely?
Clean off dirt, brake dust, grease and old adhesive, let the barrel dry, fit at room temperature and press firmly and evenly along the whole weight.
Can I get them with 3M tape?
Yes. Both 3M and Norton tape are available.
