Product Information

This process usually employs a steel die, it is arranged above the crucible filled with molten magnesium. Most commonly, the crucible is sealed against the die and pressurized air/cover gas mix is used to force the molten metal up a straw-like filler tube into the die. [10]

Alloy wheels are prone to galvanic corrosion, which can cause the tires to leak air if appropriate preventive measures are not taken. Also, alloy wheels are more difficult to repair than steel wheels when bent, but their higher price usually makes repairs cheaper than replacement. Gravity-cast magnesium wheels have been in production since the early 1920s and provide good ductility, and relative properties above what can be made with aluminium casting. Tooling costs for gravity-cast wheels are among the cheapest of any process. This has allowed small batch production, flexibility in design and short development time. Forging can be done by a one or multistep process forging from various magnesium alloys, most commonly AZ80, ZK60 (MA14 in Russia). Wheels produced by this method are usually of higher toughness and ductility than aluminium wheels, although the costs are much higher. [8] Forging is a complicated process that involves such processes, as heating, rolling, applying high pressure, hammering and/or combination of these. [9] As a result, the crystal structure of the alloy changes, and as a result the material becomes stronger and more lightweight.

Most alloy wheels are manufactured using casting, but some are forged. Forged wheels are usually lighter, stronger, but much more expensive than cast wheels. There are two types of forged wheels: one piece and modular. Modular forged wheels may feature two- or three-piece design. Typical multi-piece wheels consist of the inner rim base, outer rim lip and wheel center piece with openings for lug nuts. All parts of a modular wheel are held with bolts. BBS RS is one of the most famous three-piece modular forged wheels. [1] This process uses a die arranged in a large machine that has high closing force to clamp the die closed. The molten magnesium is poured into a filler tube called a shot sleeve. A piston pushes the metal into the die with high speed and pressure, the magnesium solidifies, and the die is opened, and the wheel is released. Wheels produced by this method can offer reductions in price and improvements in corrosion resistance, but they are less ductile and of lower strength due to the nature of high pressure die casting. If they’re asking for money or saying no, you can often go dumpster diving and just fetch them yourself if you feel like being aggressive about it. If this isn’t an option, then head to a local grocery store and ask if they have any boxes lying around – they’ll typically give you all sorts of boxes they’ll give you for free, or you can even look in the dumpsters behind big business like this and they’re full of cardboard boxes used to ship items that are then tossed out nearly daily. The next step is to wrap the entire wheel in bubble wrap, we would recommend using 2 to 3 layers of the larger bubble type, as it offers more protection when sending alloy wheels, Evaluating the Flammability of Various Magnesium Alloys During Laboratory- and Full-Scale Aircraft Fire Tests" (PDF).

How To Ship Wheels and Rims Without Tires

The earliest light-alloy wheels were made of magnesium alloys. Although they lost favor on common vehicles, they remained popular through the 1960s, albeit in very limited numbers. In the mid-to-late 1960s, aluminium-casting refinements allowed the manufacture of safer wheels that were not as brittle. Until this time, most aluminium wheels suffered from low ductility, usually ranging from 2-3% elongation. Because light-alloy wheels at the time were often made of magnesium (often referred to as "mags"), these early wheel failures were later attributed to magnesium's low ductility, when in many instances these wheels were poorly cast aluminium alloy wheels. Once these aluminium casting improvements were more widely adopted, the aluminium wheel took the place of magnesium as low cost, high-performance wheels for motorsports. There are one- two- and three-piece forged wheels. Every piece is originally an alloy billet, which is further transformed into a wheel, in cases of one-piece forged wheels, or into a wheel part in cases of multi-piece wheels. If the wheels still have tires mounted, then cut out cardboard circles to cover the wheel itself (like pictured at the top of this post – it doesn’t need to cover the tire, the rubber can be exposed).

Wheels are essential parts of a car, and alloy wheels are essential styling parts which make the difference between ordinary and show-stopping. Available in all kinds of colours and designs, alloy wheels are a sure-fire enhancement to make sure your car stands out from the crowd. Q. Who is the best courier for alloy wheels? A. We deliver alloy wheels and tyres on the next working day, throughout the UK mainland. If you book before 17:00, we will collect the next working day. If booked after 17:00, they will be collected a day later. When booking over the weekend, collection will be on the Tuesday, assuming that the Monday is not a bank holiday, in which case, collection would be on the Wednesday. We deliver alloy wheels and tyres on the next working day, throughout the UK mainland. Wheel box suitable for a pair of wheels. Cardboard box (66x66x29cm) with two seperate inserts to hold the wheels securely. To calculate the average price, we add up the cheapest daily prices of the last 90 days and divide by 90.

If you’re not comfortable with the above method, which is my preferred method, you can just find a huge box and put them in there, too. This service, both the collection and the delivery of alloy wheels and tyres, is for the mainland United Kingdom and local minor islands only**. All Tyres to be wrapped individually, in pairs, unless sending one. Please use some form of wrapping, such as cling film, shrink wrap,
