Lead Wheel Weights
The other day an article in the newspaper was saying some local
government (bragging) is changing over to the no lead wheel weights. I guess nation wide they are trying to change the wheel weights from lead to zinc because of environmental issues. This was based on the fact that in the article, 13 percent of vehicles loose wheel weights and they are ground up on the road. Now my question is how the heck did they come up with the 13 percent number? I have balanced many tires and never really noticed missing or lost weights. Rebalances are because less tire rubber and you install smaller weights. So anybody lost their wheel weights? I think it is another scam by some company trying to make a buck. |

I was a member of the community council when it was first established by TDS (at least locally), so I became somewhat familiar with them. They are a small phone company in the scheme of things, but slowly growing by buying even smaller phone companies. That's what happened in our case. We're in Lewis County, Washington State. The McDaniels family started the phone company here many, many years ago, and ran it successfully until the late 90's. They still owned the business when we moved here from Utah. About a year later, TDS bought them and changed the name. At that time, TDS was comprised of something like 109 small companies spread around the nation, including another in Paonia, CO, a small town I had visited, so I remember it well. Bottom line: I'm a long ways away, but I sure as hell appreciate your kind offer, which I'd snap up in a heart-beat were we closer together. Harold |

Glen Ashmore used to be on this group. Some of you will remember, Glen
bought wheel weights for months if not years making a circuit of tire dealers and purchasing 1,000 pounds on each trip. His goal was to buy enough to cast an 8,000 pound lead keel for his sailing ship. The 8,000 pounds of lead cost him about $1,000 (therefore 12-1/2 cents a pound and he was a "quantity" buyer. http://www.rutuonline.com/html/the_keel.html Mark No. And there is steady competition from the folks who use them to cast fishing weights.

Recycle places gladly accepted it and paid a reasonable price for it. In the course of running the refining business I once owned, I retorted a considerable amount of dental amalgam. It runs slightly over 50% mercury, as I recall, and I ended up with more than 100 pounds of it over the years. I was shocked to find that unless you have a full flask (76 pounds), even major refiners won't accept it from you, and they won't pay for it until the amount exceeds what I recall to be 150 pounds. You can ship a single flask to them at your expense and they'll gladly accept it gratis. You're out the flask and shipping. The deal was so lousy, I gave all the mercury to the purchaser of the business when I sold it. Harold |

... What effect would a few zinc wheel weights have on an amateur (WW) lead caster? Lead is insoluble in zinc, however 1.8at% (gah, I hate phase diagrams not in weight percent) zinc forms an eutectic in lead at 590K = 602°F. Above zinc's melting point, there's about 5at% solubility. Lemme see if I can convert that... about 1.7% max, by weight? Tim -- "California is the breakfast state: fruits, nuts and flakes." Website: http://webpages.charter.net/dawill/tmoranwms |
