Want zinc weights in the two strip patterns shops use most?
They are lead-free zinc (Zn) adhesive balance weights for the inner barrel of alloy rims on passenger cars, SUVs and light trucks. The standard strip carries twelve 5g segments, and the same zinc weight is also made as a 5g x 4 + 10g x 4 strip, so one supplier covers both patterns your technicians use.
Buyers who want zinc in the two most common strip patterns order this one; it is also made as 5g x 4 + 10g x 4. It is a straightforward choice for distributors who want zinc in both popular strip formats.
How does galvanizing plus spray finish protect zinc?
Galvanizing plus a spray finish protect the zinc and give it an even look.
Most workshops use either an even 5g strip or a mixed 5g/10g strip. This zinc weight is made in both, so one supplier covers the two patterns technicians use most, and zinc keeps it lead-free. A galvanized base with a spray finish protects the zinc and gives an even look.

How do you choose between similar weights?
For coated zinc strips, compare zinc adhesive wheel weights 5g+10g x 4 blue tape coated and zinc adhesive wheel weights blue tape. For steel 5g x 12, see zinc adhesive wheel weights blue tape coated, and for a clip-on option, look at P Series Zinc Clip-On Wheel Balancing Weights For Steel Rims.
Which vehicles and shops are they for?
Zinc 5g strips are stuck inside the barrel of alloy wheels on everyday vehicles. Stocking both patterns from one zinc supplier also keeps quality consistent: the same alloy, finish and tape options across the range. The 5g step suits light alloys, where small corrections matter, and the strip can be cut to any length on the bench. Lead-free zinc also makes the strip easy to sell in markets with lead limits. Stock both patterns if your customers use mixed balancing habits. It suits alloy wheels on cars, SUVs and light trucks.
Any fitting tips for the workshop?
Clean the barrel, fit at room temperature and press the zinc strip down. Spin to confirm. Fit the zinc strip on a clean, dry barrel at room temperature and press it down evenly.
