The clip-on weight was a lead product for most of a century, and the move to steel changed how it behaves on the wheel as well as how it is disposed of. This box holds twenty-five coated steel clip-ons at 2.5 oz each — a mid-range step, and in most tyre bays one of the sizes that empties fastest.\u003c\/p\u003e  \u003ch3\u003eSteel rather than lead, and why that may be your problem too\u003c\/h3\u003e \u003cp\u003eLead wheel weights have been withdrawn from a great many workshops, some by regulation and some by their own purchasing or environmental policy. Requirements differ by state and by municipality, and they change, so treat this as a question to answer for your own location rather than one a product description can settle: if you are subject to a restriction on lead wheel weights, verify the specific requirement that applies to you. Steel is the usual replacement, and that is what these are.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eThere is a handling difference that comes with the material, quite apart from the compliance question. Lead deforms; steel does not. A steel clip keeps its profile through fitting, removal and storage, so the weights in the bottom of the box are the same shape as the ones on top, and a weight that comes off a wheel during a re-balance is generally still usable.\u003c\/p\u003e  \u003ch3\u003eThe middle of the range, and why that matters for stock\u003c\/h3\u003e \u003cp\u003eCorrections are not distributed evenly. Very small ones and very large ones are the exception; the bulk of what a balancer calls for in ordinary passenger-car and light-truck work sits in the middle of the range, which is exactly where 2.5 oz falls. That has a practical consequence for how you buy: mid-range sizes get consumed several times faster than the extremes, and a shop stocking a fixed assortment tray will always be short of them.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eBuying the middle sizes as single-value boxes fixes that. Each size is re-ordered on its own rate of use rather than on the pace of a tray, and a technician gets the size the machine called for without sorting through compartments.\u003c\/p\u003e  \u003ch3\u003eRemovable, repositionable, re-usable\u003c\/h3\u003e \u003cp\u003eThis is the quiet advantage clip-ons hold over adhesive weights, and it is worth understanding before choosing between the two formats. A clip-on goes on and comes off with a tool and nothing else. There is no solvent, no cleaning of the barrel, no residue to scrape, no cure time and no waiting for a surface to reach a working temperature. If the balance needs adjusting, the weight moves.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eThat matters in two situations in particular. The first is a wheel that needs a couple of iterations to settle — a repaired rim, or a tyre that has been re-indexed. The second is winter, when an adhesive on a cold wheel is at its least reliable and a mechanical clip simply does not care. The coating is part of this: because the clip bears through a finished surface rather than bare metal, repeated fitting and removal is less punishing on the rim flange.\u003c\/p\u003e  \u003ch3\u003eChoosing the right weight, briefly\u003c\/h3\u003e \u003cp\u003eFit what the machine calls for, at the position it calls for, in as few pieces as the range allows. If the required correction is much larger than usual, look for a mechanical cause before you solve it with mass — a badly seated bead, debris inside the tyre or a damaged rim will all show up as a large imbalance, and re-indexing the tyre on the rim frequently makes most of it disappear. Once the weight is on, spin again and confirm rather than assuming, and clean the flange of brake dust and old adhesive when you strip the previous weights, because a clip cannot bear properly on a contaminated surface.\u003c\/p\u003e  \u003ch3\u003ePerfect For\u003c\/h3\u003e \u003cul\u003e \u003cli\u003e \u003cstrong\u003eBusy tyre bays\u003c\/strong\u003e, where mid-range sizes are consumed fastest and an assortment tray is always short of them.\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003e \u003cstrong\u003eGeneral repair shops\u003c\/strong\u003e balancing wheels alongside other work, wanting one dependable size on the shelf.\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003e \u003cstrong\u003eWorkshops operating a lead-free purchasing policy\u003c\/strong\u003e on fitted consumables.\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003e \u003cstrong\u003eCold-climate shops\u003c\/strong\u003e, where a mechanical clip is more predictable than an adhesive on a cold rim.\u003c\/li\u003e \u003c\/ul\u003e  \u003ch3\u003eWhat you receive\u003c\/h3\u003e \u003cp\u003eOne box of coated steel clip-on wheel weights, twenty-five pieces, each 2.5 oz, with a package weight of 3.9 lbs.

For a balancing consumable that is unremarkable. It only becomes a live question where a fleet contract, an insurer or a municipal purchasing specification requires documented approval on the parts you fit; if that is your situation, ask us before you order and we will request whatever documentation the manufacturer holds rather than guess at it.\u003c\/p\u003e  \u003ch3\u003eShipping and delivery\u003c\/h3\u003e \u003cp\u003eOrders go to the contiguous United States, and the delivery charge is generated at checkout from live carrier rates rather than quoted in this description, because carrier pricing does not hold still.

Residential delivery is a separate service carrying its own fee, quoted at checkout. Inspect the package before signing and note any damage on the delivery receipt at the moment of delivery — once you have signed clean, a claim becomes extremely difficult.\u003c\/p\u003e  \u003ch3\u003eWarranty\u003c\/h3\u003e \u003cp\u003eThis item sits under Ranger’s single product-line warranty document rather than carrying a term of its own, and the current copy is on file with us. We have not stated a duration because the fact sheet does not give one, and a guessed warranty period is the kind of detail that turns into an argument later. Ask and we will send you the document before you order.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eIf a box is damaged, short or incorrect on arrival, keep it and the packaging and contact us before anything else. Do not bend, grind or otherwise alter a clip to make it grip a flange it was not made for — an altered weight cannot be assessed for a claim, and it is not a weight that should be on a wheel at road speed.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003c\/div\u003e \u003c\/div\u003e \u003c\/div\u003e \u003c\/div\u003e \u003cdiv class=\"divider\"\u003e\u003cimg src=\"https:\/\/cdn11.bigcommerce.com\/s-ew8kwapfc4\/images\/stencil\/original\/image-manager\/golden-bar.png?t=1681903157\" alt=\"\" width=\"1198\" height=\"8\"\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e \u003cdiv class=\"kd-main-product-spec-container\"\u003e \u003ch3 class=\"h3 accordion\"\u003eProduct Specifications\u003c\/h3\u003e \u003cdiv class=\"panel\"\u003e \u003cdiv class=\"kd-product-spec-continer kd-flex-row\"\u003e \u003cdiv class=\"kd-prouduct-spec-item\"\u003e \u003ctable border=\"0\" cellspacing=\"0\"\u003e \u003ctbody\u003e \u003ctr\u003e \u003ctd align=\"left\" width=\"50%\"\u003eStyle\u003c\/td\u003e \u003ctd align=\"right\" width=\"50%\"\u003eClip-on \/ Pfe\u003c\/td\u003e \u003c\/tr\u003e \u003ctr\u003e \u003ctd align=\"left\" width=\"50%\"\u003eQuantity\u003c\/td\u003e \u003ctd align=\"right\" width=\"50%\"\u003e25\u003c\/td\u003e \u003c\/tr\u003e \u003ctr\u003e \u003ctd align=\"left\" width=\"50%\"\u003eWeight ea.\u003c\/td\u003e \u003ctd align=\"right\" width=\"50%\"\u003e2.5 oz.\u003c\/td\u003e \u003c\/tr\u003e \u003ctr\u003e \u003ctd align=\"left\" width=\"50%\"\u003ePackage Weight\u003c\/td\u003e \u003ctd align=\"right\" width=\"50%\"\u003e3.9 lbs.\u003c\/td\u003e \u003c\/tr\u003e \u003c\/tbody\u003e \u003c\/table\u003e \u003c\/div\u003e \u003c\/div\u003e \u003c\/div\u003e \u003c\/div\u003e \u003cdiv class=\"divider\"\u003e\u003cimg src=\"https:\/\/cdn11.bigcommerce.com\/s-ew8kwapfc4\/images\/stencil\/original\/image-manager\/golden-bar.png?t=1681903157\" alt=\"\" width=\"1198\" height=\"8\"\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e \u003cdiv class=\"kd-main-product-pickupdelivry-container\"\u003e \u003ch3 class=\"h3 accordion\"\u003ePick Up and Delivery\u003c\/h3\u003e \u003cdiv class=\"panel\"\u003e \u003cdiv class=\"kd-product-pickupdelivry-continer kd-flex-row\"\u003e \u003cdiv class=\"kd-prouduct-pickupdelivry-item\"\u003e \u003cp\u003eOur Pick Up locations for Ranger are located in Santa Paula, California \u0026amp; Theodore, Alabama.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eCall, text, or chat with us if you have questions. 866-774-7743\u003c\/p\u003e \u003c\/div\u003e \u003c\/div\u003e \u003c\/div\u003e \u003c\/div\u003e \u003cdiv class=\"divider\"\u003e\u003cimg src=\"https:\/\/cdn11.bigcommerce.com\/s-ew8kwapfc4\/images\/stencil\/original\/image-manager\/golden-bar.png?t=1681903157\" alt=\"\" width=\"1198\" height=\"8\"\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e \u003cdiv class=\"kd-main-product-downloads-container\"\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Ranger","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":49287129661594,"sku":"5150295","price":42.0,"currency_code":"PKR","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/coretarps.co.uk\/products\/ranger-clip-on-steel-wheel-weight-coated-2-5-oz-25-pcs","provider":"My Store","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
