Want one everyday steel clip weight for most car wheels?
They are general-purpose lead-free steel (Fe) clip-on weights with zinc plating, for the flange of passenger car, SUV and light truck wheels.
Tyre shops that want one general steel clip weight for everyday car work buy this as their main line. Parts counters like it because one product answers most walk-in requests for a clip weight.
Why is zinc plating the standard finish?
Zinc plating is the standard finish for steel clip weights: it keeps rust off in normal use, gives a bright look, and keeps the cost per piece down for high-volume shops.
Not every shop wants to stock five clip profiles. A general-purpose steel clip covers the flanges of many common cars, SUVs and light trucks, which keeps the shelf simple. Zinc plating keeps it rust-free and inexpensive, so it works as the everyday clip weight in a busy bay. Because it fits so many common wheels, this clip is also a good choice for mobile tyre fitters who have limited space in the van. One box can cover most of the jobs they see in a day, with specialist profiles kept only for unusual rims.

For named profiles, compare steel clip-on wheel weights ps / al1 / al2 / al6 profiles 5g-50g and steel clip-on wheel balancing weights 150g for trucks. Alloy-specific clips are on silver steel clip-on wheel balancing weights 100g / 150g for trucks, and where an adhesive weight suits better, see steel adhesive wheel weights 1/4 oz x 12 blue tape diamond.
Which customers buy it most?
They fit the flange of common passenger car, SUV and light truck wheels. Tyre shops and parts distributors stock them as a steady seller. Use it as the main clip line and add specialist profiles only where your local wheels need them. Typical jobs include seasonal tyre changes, puncture repairs that need a rebalance, and fleet servicing, where speed matters more than appearance. The clip goes on in seconds and the plated finish holds up to normal road conditions between services.
How should they be applied?
Place the weight at the balancer mark and hammer the clip on until it is tight. Replace any bent clip and spin the wheel again. Keep weights dry in storage so the plating stays bright.

General-purpose clips come boxed by size in export cartons, shipped by sea or air.

Yes. Boxes, labels and barcodes can carry your brand.
