Need very fine 2.5g steps for light alloy wheels?
They are lead-free steel (Fe) stick-on weights with 2.5g segments, coated and backed with blue tape, for alloy wheels on passenger cars and light trucks. They are packed 100 strips per box and 4 boxes per carton, and production is listed under ISO9001/TS16949.
Workshops chasing fine corrections on light alloys order this strip. The 2.5g x 12 version is about 2.4 mm thick and also comes on Norton tape.
Fine 2.5g steps let technicians fine-tune light wheels where a 5g piece would overshoot. The 2.5g x 12 version is about 2.4 mm thick, so it sits very low on the barrel. Production is listed under ISO9001/TS16949, which some buyers need for their own quality records. Technicians also use it to fine-tune a wheel after fitting a larger weight.
What does the coating add to a 2.5g strip?
The coating protects the thin 2.5g segments and keeps an even finish.
Small 2.5g pieces allow fine corrections on light alloys, where a 5g piece would overshoot, and the coating protects the thin segments. Production is listed under ISO9001/TS16949, which some buyers need for their own quality records.

For Dacromet 2.5g strips, compare steel adhesive wheel weights 1/4 oz x 12 rounded corner zinc / grey / black and steel adhesive wheel weights 5g x 10 4mm thin rounded zinc / grey / black. For 5g steps, see wide tape grey steel adhesive wheel weights 5g+10g x 4 rectangular, and for a clip-on weight, look at MC Series Steel Clip-On Wheel Balancing Weights Zinc Plated.
Which customers buy it most?
They fit the inner barrel of alloy wheels on cars and light trucks. Wheel specialists also use it on lightweight alloys and small city cars, where even a 5g error is felt. The thin 2.4 mm profile on the 2.5g x 12 version keeps the weight low on the barrel, and Norton tape is available when customers ask for a branded adhesive. Use it alongside a 5g strip so technicians have both coarse and fine steps. It suits small cars, city cars and light trucks with light alloy wheels.
Any fitting tips for the workshop?
Clean the spot, fit at room temperature, press each small piece firmly and spin to check. For very small pieces, a fingertip roller helps press the tape evenly onto the barrel without shifting the piece off the mark. Press each small piece firmly, since thin segments have little tape area.

Each box holds 100 strips and each carton 4 boxes.
