I got into casting , only recently. I try to read as many posts and explanations as possible, or until my head hurts.
I read that a very popular alloy, especially for HP, is 50% WW + 50% pure lead. I do not have wheel weights, starting this late in the game, and the tire places near me don’t have anything even remotely lead, anymore.
I do have a large supply of lead, tin and antimony …. And I can create alloys following the percentages.
I haven’t seen this 50/50 on any of the alloy charts ( not confusing with 50/50 solder) that I’ve seen so far, or at least that I recognize as the 50/50 alloy.
Does the 50 WW + 50 lead have other names, that I might find on these alloy charts?
Or even easier… what is the lead/ tin/ antimony percentages of the 50/50 alloy?
Thank you for squashing my confusion, lol
