Basic Features

1/2" Pitch Spacing

The WCP Ballast Blocks are designed around the 1/2" Pitch Spacing Standard, making them fully compatible with Punched Tubing. This ensures teams can easily integrate ballast blocks into existing structures without the need for custom drilling or alignment adjustments.

#10 Hardware

The WCP Ballast Blocks are designed to work seamlessly with standard #10 hardware, offering both tapped and clearance holes for maximum flexibility. This gives teams the option to use bolts directly for mounting or to pass through hardware for clamping and reinforcement.

Bolt C-Bore

The WCP Ballast Blocks also feature integrated counterbores to allow for #10 hardware to sit flush with the block surface. This design prevents bolt heads from protruding into neighboring components, making it easier to package ballast blocks within tight robot designs.

Due to the 0.125" depth of the Bolt C-Bore, it is recommended to use #10-32 BHCS bolts. If #10-32 SHCS Bolts are used, the socket head will protrude past the surface of the Ballast Block.
