Description
The Ballast Block - 3in x 2in x 1in is a steel weight block weighing 1.42 pounds (643g), designed for easy integration with the ION Build System. It features a staggered hole pattern with twenty (20) #10-32 counterbored through holes and twenty (20) #10-32 threaded blind holes across four surfaces, allowing secure mounting and modular configurations using either button or socket head screws. The 0.5in pitch aligns with ION structural tubes and bracketry, and the staggered design lets multiple blocks connect without extra brackets.
Perfect for counterbalancing heavy subsystems, stabilizing drivetrains to prevent tipping, and enabling modular weight adjustments, the Ballast Block offers a simple solution for optimizing weight distribution and setting your center of gravity where you need it.
