Want large 10g pieces with strong corrosion protection?
They are lead-free steel (Fe) stick-on weights with 10g segments, Dacromet coated in a grey finish and backed with blue tape, for alloy wheels on passenger cars, SUVs and light trucks.
Shops that want big 10g pieces with strong corrosion protection pick the Dacromet version.
Larger pieces stay on the wheel for a long time, often through several winters. That makes corrosion protection more important, not less. Dacromet gives the 10g segments a matt grey finish that resists salt and moisture far better than plating, while the larger step size keeps fitting quick on SUVs and bigger cars. Shops that balance SUVs and larger cars in wet climates are the main buyers. Leasing fleets that keep cars for several years also find the longer-lasting finish worthwhile.
How does Dacromet compare with plain plating?
Dacromet gives a grey, matt finish that resists salt far better than plating, which suits large segments that stay on the wheel for years.
Big 10g pieces halve the number of cuts on larger corrections, and the Dacromet coating gives them strong corrosion protection. That suits weights that will stay on the wheel through several winters. The grey finish blends with silver and grey alloys, so the short block of 10g pieces looks tidy behind the spokes.

| Tape | Typical use |

How do you choose between similar weights?
For plated 10g strips, compare thick steel adhesive wheel weights 15g / 20g / 25g / 30g segments 7mm and rounded corner steel adhesive wheel weights 5g x 12 grey / black. For 5g Dacromet steps, see steel adhesive wheel weights 2.5g x 12 blue tape dacromet, and for a clip-on weight, look at ST Series Steel Clip-On Wheel Balancing Weights Zinc Plated.
What jobs does it suit?
These 10g Dacromet pieces go inside the barrel of alloy wheels. It is also a sensible choice for fleet cars that stay in service for years, because the Dacromet coating keeps the weights in good condition between infrequent tyre changes. Pair it with a 5g Dacromet strip so technicians can finish with a small step. It is fitted on SUVs, crossovers and larger cars, where corrections often run past 40g.
What is the right way to install them?
Clean the barrel, fit at room temperature and press each grey 10g piece firmly into place. Spin to check. On wheels that have just been washed, wait until the barrel is fully dry before you fit any piece. Press each 10g piece firmly along its full length, because larger segments need complete tape contact.
