Balance Weight and Rim Flange Design Specifications, Test Procedures, and Performance Recommendations
- Ground Vehicle Standard
- J1986_200601
- Revised
Sector:
Issuing Committee:
Language:
English
Scope
This SAE Recommended Practice is intended to serve as a guide for standardization of features, dimensions, and configurations of balance weights and rim flanges for aluminum and steel wheels intended for use on passenger cars, light trucks, and multipurpose vehicles to assure good installation and retention of the balance weight on the rim flange. This document also provides test procedures and minimum performance requirements for testing balance weight retention. Alternate materials and geometries can be addressed in the future, for example adhesive balance weights.
Rationale
SAE J1986 was rewritten to reflect current Industry Practice and to update Procedures, Test Methods, Charts, Figures and wheel rim types.

* Redlines comparisons are available for those standards
listed in the Revision History that contain a radio button. A
redline comparison of the current version against a revision is
accomplished by selecting the radio button next to the standard and
then selecting 'compare'. At this time, Redline versions only exist
for some AMS standards. SAE will continue to add redline versioning
with ongoing updates to SAE MOBILUS.
