Your a good man!
What do you think they are? Purpose I mean.
No not alone it isn’t much pressure but I’ve heard of pressure tested fuel and water tanks on ships popping when just a half a psi too much pressure is applied. I haven’t personally observed a tank hydro in years but if I recall corrected they get tested to 1.5-2 psi. Too much and they pop because those pounds per square inch are applied over a huge surface.
Never seen such a thing.
Very interesting find. Serial numbered too!
Matched set.
One of two
Two of two.
Could be weights to generate that pressure in a test cell of some type. That weight applied to a piston of set diameter generates the specified pressure used to calibrate an old school sensor.
At any rate, I have some 18 inch x 24 inch cone inch thick counterweight plates. I believe they may have a bit of tin, as they will cast a decently filled out bullet. I just call it plain lead. Good score, and you kept that terribleness out of the landfill

Very nice score. and at the best price!
Looks like the weights to a vacuum/vent device used on an above-ground storage tank. Either way, good score!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I firmly believe that you should only get treated by how you act, not by who or what you are!!
