INCONSISTENT UNBALANCE
READINGS

In some cases, when a wheel that has just been balanced

is repositioned on the balancer, the machine can detect

an unbalance.

This is not a machine problem but is due to faulty mounting

of the wheel on the flange. In other words, when mount-

ing the wheel after initial balancing, it has taken another

position with respect to the balancer shaft axis.

If the wheel has been mounted on the flange with screws,

the screws may not have been tightened correctly (criss-

cross sequence) or the tolerances of the holes drilled in

the wheel may be too large. Small errors, up to 10 grams

(0.4 oz), are to be considered normal in wheels locked

with the relative cone: The error is normally greater for

wheels locked with screws or studs.

If, after balancing, the wheel is still unbalanced when re-

fitted on the vehicle, this could be due to an unbalanced

brake drum or, very often, the tolerances of the holes

drilled in the rim and drum are too large. In this case,

balancing should be performed using a balancer with the

wheel mounted on the vehicle.
