Does anyone know the exact weight of a single Suspend Strip or have a scale that can weigh one?

Thanks for the info. I am wanting to add about 1/8 oz to the shank of a swimbait hook. It will take too many strips or dots so I'll probably use lead wire.

FYI, Golfsmith carries some lead tape that is significantly heavier than the SuspenStrips. They have a 1" and 1/2" wide tape available. I haven't had a chance to weigh a similar strip for comparison but I'm guessing it's AT LEAST 4 times heavier.

Great tip on the lead tape from Golfsmith. I should have thought of that!
