Product Description
Premium FLANGE PLATE AND COLLET set for Lug-Centric Wheel Mounting; 40mm shaft. Greatly increases wheel balancing accuracy by increasing the accuracy of the wheel mounting. Also allows the mounting of most CLAD WHEELS (plastic faced). See below regarding Clad Wheels. Haweka brand.
CONFIRM YOUR BALANCER HAS A 40mm (about 1-9/16") SHAFT before ordering.
Consist of Haweka Kits HW150-400-110 & HW200-249-409 and includes:
- Four FLANGE PLATES for most 4, 5, 6, and 8 lug wheels.
- 21 Flange Plate STUDS.
- Flange Plate STORAGE STAND.
- 9 Piece Low-Taper COLLET SET (52.5mm - 122mm, 2" - 4.8").
The Low-Taper Collets are superior to standard cones because they have more contact area and engage the wheel at a better angle; they are also neccessary for Clad Wheels because they are shorter and only contact the metal part of the wheel. They can be used for "standard" wheels as a replacement for the cones.
The Flange Plates provide superiour Lug-Centric mounting and allow mounting custom, expensive, and clad wheels with no contact on the face of the wheel.
Note: To use this system you NEED A WHEEL BALANCER WITH A LONG ENOUGH SHAFT the standard shaft on some older wheel balancers may not be long enough to accomodate this mounting system. It varies, but a good rule-of-thumb is if the threaded part of the shaft extends to about 8" from the balancer hub-plate. We can supply upgraded shafts for many models of balancers to solve this problem; send us an email with the BRAND AND MODEL of your balancer for more information.
WHAT IS NEEDED TO BALANCE THE NEW CLAD WHEELS?
- COLLETS instead of cones for the inside center hole. Standard cones will often contact the plastic part inside the hole.
- A LUG-CENTRIC PRESSURE DEVICE for centering and clamping the front of the wheel without contacting the "face".
- A WHEEL BALANCER WITH A LONG ENOUGH SHAFT. The standard shaft on some older wheel balancers may not be long enough to accomodate this mounting system. It varies, but a good rule-of-thumb is if the threaded part of the shaft extends to about 8" from the balancer hub-plate.
