Does anyone know what tt, MC or AW mean on wheel weights. I'm pretty sure TT and MC are ok to cast with. They scratch and squish pretty easy but not as soft as pure lead. I'm not sure about the AW. If anyone knows please pm and let me know. Thanks guys
They're labels for different wheel styles. They have no bearing on metal content at all.
the only ones that matter are ZN and FE. the iron will float out with the clips, just watch out for the zinc's.
The AW's are for alloy wheels
thanks guys that was driving me crazy. I used to just smely at the lowest temp possible and scoop anything that didnt melt with the rest but ive been sorting this latest bucket and couldnt figure it out. so thanks alot
This, not sure I've ever seen a "TT" weight??, but I have NEW "AW" and "MC" weights at work, among others, it's simply what wheel they fit on, nothing more.Originally Posted by Strtspdlx
Crappy pic, but here is a current application chart, there are atleast 8 wheel types on there.
