Heightened requirements on scale testing require reliable weights that survive years of use in rough environments. With a strong engineering focus on safe and productive testing, cast iron weights from kilograms to 5 tons are perfect for this application.
Safe Lifting and Stacking
Handling heavy capacity weights to test scales always poses certain risks. To avoid manual handling operations, METTLER TOLEDO has designed weights that offer a myriad of lifting options, including 360 deg access by fork lifts, cranes, and hoists.
Flexibility in Scale Testing
Grip handle calibration weights are available in nominal values of 1 kg up to 50 kg, satisfying maximum permissible errors of OIML classes F1 to M3. While material, surface conditions, density and magnetism meet the same requirements as traditional knob shape weights, these weights allow safe stacking.
Designed for rigorous industrial environments, our cast iron weights guarantee both longevity and measurement precision. The robust construction, combined with a durable finish and corrosion resistance, ensures consistent performance even in demanding conditions. Their strict adherence to recognized calibration standards supports high-accuracy weighing scale testing.
Each weight comes with an integrated handle or slots, simplifying the lifting and placement process during calibration. Users can request customized sizes or capacities tailored to their unique requirements, ensuring the optimal fit for any industrial platform scale or calibration scenario.
