Hi Frankiee, The wheel is on a Ford 7710. It's got about all the stress on it that any wheel can have. Snap on duals, 100+ PTO HP ahead of it, and enough ballast to keep them from spinning. That said, it's not something that will cause me any harm. It fails slowly, and I'm well aware of it when it happens.
The wheels are the 2 piece variety. They have a center that is bolted to the rim. These centers have been cracking outwards from the lug nuts. I can't tell you for sure how much carbon is in the steel, but I would say it's closer a spring steel than mild plate. The centers can still be drilled without a press, but it's not like mild plate by any means.
I think you may be right about the heating and cooling. It's probably the most important component in welding these things. It's probably a moot point now though, as FedEx says the new center will be here Friday morning.
Thanks to everyone for their thoughts on this. Rod
