Frequently asked questions

How heavy is this ballast weight?

The 3.0 inch cube weighs 17.6 lb (8 kg). Tungsten is one of the densest naturally occurring elements, so it concentrates a lot of weight into a small space.

Why is this weight discounted?

These cubes may come with a surface blemish. The imperfect finish is cosmetic only — density and weight performance are unaffected — which makes this the least expensive cost per pound for tungsten on the market.

What is it made of?

MT-18F tungsten heavy alloy: 95% tungsten with a nickel-iron balance, at a density of about 18 g/cm³.

What is it used for?

Ballast and counterweight work where space is tight. These weights are popular in NASCAR, Formula 1, and stock car racing, and for balancing weights in aircraft and high performance engines.

Is it safe to handle?

Yes. Solid tungsten heavy alloy is inert, non-radioactive, and non-toxic — safe to handle with bare hands.

Does it come with a display base?

No, no display base is included with this item.
