Tungsten Putty Weight, 1 oz., Get The Perfect Weights for Your Pinewood Car to Win Your Derby

My son used this to add additional weight to his derby car. This weight is ideal because you can remove or add a bit at weigh in to get your car right on spec with the "official scale". If you just use regular weights, there is no flexibility so it's always a good idea to be a tenth or few hundredths of an oz under to account for possible differences in scales. With this Tungsten putty, you can be exact! Even better, my son came in first in his pack!

You don't get a full ounce of putty! since it was cheap enough what can ya say, but reading another review, it seems all the companies might do this practice of shaving product. The Putty and the waxpaper equalled 1.000 oz. but i wasn't interested in buying paper, was i? so they shorted me 0.015 oz. it's just the principal of the matter. the product is good and tacky, so it should be good for my pinewood derby car.

Worked well for fine tuning at maximum weight on a derby car. Stays putty like though and doesn’t get hard so put it in a discrete location or it doesn’t look nice.

I liked this stuff because you can use a portion of it for what you need to be done. The stuff conforms to the shape of the cavity you are putting it in. I used one fifth of it to put a weight in the radome of the F-16 model. If there is no weight, the model airplane will do a wheelie!

Easy to use. Best if used from the top of the pinewood derby car. Easy to form. There was a misunderstanding with my order, emailed seller and had it corrected immediately! Wonderful customer service. Great product and great service!

Bought this putty to add to my son’s pinewood derby car for scouts. It worked great and got his car to the needed weight! Even helped him make it to the leader board!! Thanks a bunch for the great customer service! You have definitely got a new customer!!

I've been working on pinewood derby cars for a while. I first started with my children, then the past 10 years holding derby car clinics.Tungsten putty is important to get your car to maximum weight. I keep the unassembled car weighted at 4.9 ounces. I drill a shallow 1/4 hole under the car and pack in the tungsten putty to make up the last bit of weight. That way on race day you can make small weight adjustments without trashing your car. The fastest car is the heaviest.I've been getting tungsten putty from the large online derby suppliers. I figured I'd save money in shipping, use Amazon prime, and try a new product. This putty is less dense than the putty I've worked with in the past. It seems to have more sticky binder and less tungsten powder than what I've used in the past. I ordered 3 units. They easily fit inside one container. I even mixed some tungsten powder to the 3 blobs of putty.I prefer the stuff I got before but this will work

If you're debating between the plug weights and the putty I would get 3.5 in the plugs and then 1 oz in the putty. The putty is really amazing for micro adjustments.
