Tungsten Fishing Putty

Tungsten fishing putty is perfect for any fisher who wants a hard wearing and high density material for pinning down hook link matter. Easily moved, soft and durable, tungsten putty is great under any weather condition and can last even in wet and windy conditions.We can provide different kinds of tungsten putty as your requirement.

Moldable tungsten putty is reusable, non-toxic tungsten fishing putty material that is great for use anytime you would use split shot. Tungsten is 30% heavier than lead so a smaller amount of the material is needed to have the same sinking benefits as lead. Moldable tungsten putty is non-toxic, environmentally friendly and legal to use in areas where lead has been banned, besides, it is safe to the environment.

What is Tungsten Fishing Putty?

Tungsten Putty is a non-hardening, moldable material made from tungsten powder and a polymer binder. Under normal conditions, tungsten putty will not harden, the minimum density is 10 g/cm³.
Malleable and extremely dense, the tungsten fishing putty is designed to be added to your rig to hold down your rig or line. Simply pinch the required amount off and apply to your carp rig.
Tungsten putty is very dense and easy to knead, just a small piece will do to make your hook link lay flat on the bottom of the lake bed. Tungsten putty also useful for balancing hook baits. Soft tungsten putty, great to use when fly fishing or when extra weight is needed to get your flies or bait down in the water column fast. Tungsten putty is widely used in fishing.

How to Use Tungsten Alloy Canopy Weight

Canopy weight is just over 1-3/4 inches long and just under 1-3/16 inches wide. The height above the car body is 1/3 of an inch. The mounting stud is 1/2 inch in diameter and 1/4 inch long. Your shipment will contain one tungsten alloy weight.
Tungsten alloy canopy weight can be easily used for pinewood derby car weighting if the weight of the car body, wheels, and axles is less than 1.5 ounces. Drill a 1/2 inch diameter hole into the top of the car body (generally the hole is drilled all the way through the car). Apply epoxy in the hole, and spread just a little epoxy on the top of the car as well. Mount the product and allow it to dry.

Since tungsten alloy weight is very hard, do not plan to drill out any extra weight. Instead, use an alternate method to make fine adjustments such as adding/removing tungsten beads, lead, or other items.

    

Tungsten Alloy Canopy Weight

Tungsten alloy canopy weight are available in a variety of shapes and three different metals -lead, steel, and tungsten. Each metal has its advantages and disadvantages. The following table will help you to decide which metal you would like to use.


One main difference between the three metals is their density. The more dense the metal, the more it will weight. The picture to the right shows the three metals and the amount need of each for the same weight. As you can see, it takes a lot less tungsten then steel for the same weight.

Tungsten Alloy Incremental Weight Cylinder Set Includes

Tungsten heavy alloy is 1.7 times denser than lead and offers more control over precise weight distribution. Place more weight in a smaller, precise area. The incremental design allows car builders to bring racers to the maximum weight allowed in exact 1/16 ounce increments. We can provide all kinds of incremental weight according to your requirements. Tungsten heavy alloy is the best material to make incremental weight.

      

Tungsten Alloy Incremental Weight

Tungsten alloy has high density, small volume, high temperature resistance and more stunning properties that make it is the best choice to make counterweights. This set of 3/8" Tungsten Cylinders consists of a variety of cylinder lengths and weight. All cylinders are 3/8" in diameter. All 7 cylinders weigh 2.25oz together.  This set is great for fine tuning your car weight when cylinders are required.    

                 

Why Tungsten Alloy Weight Is Better Than Zinc or Lead Weight?

Tungsten alloy weight gives you an advantage because tungsten alloy weight is about 1.8 times denser than lead weight, which means tungsten alloy weight is about half the size for the same weight.
Since pinewood derby cars are so small it is important to place tacky weight exactly where you need tungsten alloy weight.

Tungsten alloy weight gives you more flexibility in your car design, because you can place tungsten alloy weight more precisely in a smaller area for speed.

Tungsten alloy weight is widely used in race cars. We can provide different tungsten alloy weight as your requirement.        
                      

Derby Tungsten Cylinders to Use

Tungsten Cylinders can be easily used for car weighting by drilling one or more 25/64" or larger diameter holes into the block and then inserting the desired number of cylinders. The hole can then be plugged with a piece of 3/8 inch dowel rod. Since the Tungsten Cylinders are very hard, do not plan to drill out any extra weight. Instead, use an alternate method to make fine adjustments such as adding/removing tungsten beads.

Tungsten Cylinders are specifically required for the following cars.

• THE BOLT - Advanced Car Plans 2
• THE DETONATOR - Car Plans 5
• THE SPORTS CAR (Extended Version) - Car Plans 4
• THE WEDGE SE (Extended Version) - Wedge Car Plans
• THE WEDGE TURBO (Extended Version) - Car Plans 3

4 ounce nominal weight - actual weight ranges from 3.9 to 4.0 ounces

Derby Tungsten Cylinders

Incremental Tungsten Cylinders contain five 1/2 ounce cylinders, one 1/4 ounce cylinders, and two 1/8 ounce cylinders. Using the incremental cylinders, you can acheive any weight between 0 and 3 ounces in 1/8 ounce increments.

For similar reasons tungsten is a superior product for weighting cars. Tungsten is 3.2 times the weight of the no-lead weighting material often used on cars, thus it enables tremendous flexibility in the design of the car. Coincidentally, tungsten has been used by NASCAR for the metal roll cage and as frame ballast to lower the center of gravity of the race car.

How Tungsten Alloy Disc Work?

Pinewood derby cars are gravity-powered vehicles. They start the race on a sloped track held back by starting pins. When the pins drop, the cars roll down the sloped track towards the finish line, guided by rails. Most tracks are built with a transition from the sloped starting section to a long flat section. On these tracks, cars must complete the flat section while maintaining as much speed as possible. Weight to volume ratio of tungsten alloy disc is essential here. Maximal energy is generated without creating additional air drag.
                      

Why Use Pinewood Derby Car Tungsten Alloy Disc?

Tungsten is a metal with one of the highest densities is 1.7 times heavier than lead. Only gold, platinum, and a few other rare metals have a similar density. Having more concentrated weight means having more control over weight placement in your car to achieve the center of mass that you are targeting. Tungsten is also non-toxic and environmentally friendly so it is safe for children and adults to handle and work with. Tungsten disc is most common pinewood derby car weight.

Applications of Tungsten Alloy Cubes Pinewood Derby Weight

Tungsten heavy alloy cube is completely non-toxic and environmentally friendly so tungsten heavy alloy cube is often used in weighting applications where lead is not appropriate. For example, lead has been banned in many streams, so tungsten heavy alloy cube is often substituted for lead weight on fishing flies. The high density of tungsten heavy alloy cube coupled with the non-toxic nature makes tungsten heavy alloy cube an ideal metal for this application.
For similar reasons tungsten alloy cubes is a superior product for pinewood derby cars weight. Tungsten is 3.2 times the weight of the no-lead weighting material often used on pinewood derby cars, thus tungsten alloy cube enables tremendous flexibility in the design of the car and tungsten alloy cube is a good choice for racing car counterweight.
Tungsten heavy alloy cubes can be easily used for pinewood derby car weighting by drilling a series of 1/4 inch deep holes in the bottom of the car and then using a chisel or sharp knife to clean out the pocket. Since the tungsten alloy cubes are very hard, do not plan to drill out any extra weight. Instead, use an alternate method to make fine adjustments such as adding/removing tungsten beads.

What Is Pinewood Derby?

The pinewood derby is a racing event for Cub Scouts in the Boy Scouts of America. Cub Scouts, with the help of parents, build their own cars from wood, usually from kits containing a block of pine, plastic wheels and metal axles. With the popularity of the pinewood derby, other organizations have developed similar events, and a small industry has developed to provide tracks, timers, scales and other products.
