Spoke weight - Typ 713, 10 g, zinc
Bore diameter spoke weight Hofmann Power Weights: 5.5 mm and 6.2 mm, for spoke nipples ø 6.0 mm and ø 6.4 mm according to DIN 74 371. Made in Germany
Why should you balance tyres at all?
At a speed of 100 km/h the centrifugal force of a 10 g unbalance acts like the force of a sledge hammer. This makes wheels without balancing weights a danger: Without spoke weights on steel and aluminium rims, wheel suspensions and bearings are subjected to more stress. Missing balancing weights on steel and aluminium rims can also lead to noticeable vibrations at the steering wheel and in the interior. In addition, the absence of spoke weights results in increased brake and tyre wear.
Assembly of spoke weights:
Depending on the spoke nipple diameter, Hofmann Power Weight balancing weights are used. The fixing of the spoke weights takes place in the middle of the rim on the spoke nipple.
