Choosing the Correct Test Weights for Scales

The precise test weight required largely depends on the specific type of scale you have and its capacity. Test weights are categorized into groups, ranging from Class 1 to Class IIII. After determining your scale class, you then need to identify the appropriate weight class.

  • ASTM Class 5: These weights are used in commercial weighing (Legal For Trade) for Class III weighing devices.
  • ASTM: Classes 0-4 are designed for laboratory and high-precision uses. Classes 5-7 are intended for industrial use.
  • OIML Class E2, F2: These high-precision weights are used in laboratories with Class II weighing devices.

Different Types of Test Weights for Scale Calibration

  • Cast iron calibration weights come with a grip handle and feature a nest-like style slab. We offer cast iron test weights with slotted, hanger, and interlocking functions in ASTM Class 6 and 7.
  • Counterpoise and hanger cast iron test weights are also available in ASTM Class 6 and 7.
  • ASTM Class 5 avoirdupois and metric weights are crafted from stainless steel and are mainly used as field standards for scales and balances.
  • The ASTM Class 5 individual specialty calibration weights offer unique features for custom use. ASTM electronic calibration kits are designed to calibrate balances in Classes 1 and 2.
  • ASTM precision laboratory metric calibration sets offer a range from 500 mg, 20 g, 50 g, 100 g, and 200 g, and they are used to test balances while exceeding an E617-13 specification.

Calibration Weights FAQs

Where to buy calibration weights?

You can purchase calibration weights from a variety of suppliers either online or offline. If you're shopping online, Certified Scale is an excellent choice. We offer a wide range of high-quality, certified weights for various applications and calibrations. Our weights are from the trusted A&D, Ohaus, and Rice Lake Weighing brands.

What are calibration weights used for?

Calibration weights are used to adjust and test the accuracy of electronic and mechanical weighing scales. They are essential for making sure that your scale(s) are producing accurate measurements. These weights can help meet standards for contractual jobs, military contracts, pharmaceutical manufacturing, and ISO 9000 alike.

How are calibration weights made?

Calibration weights are typically constructed from durable materials such as cast iron or stainless steel. First, the weight is carefully crafted to the required specifications. Once the raw weight is formed, it is polished and treated to prevent corrosion. Lastly, it's calibrated to the specific weight class to ensure utmost precision.

How should I handle calibration weights?

Prior to using your weight, make sure to have it sit in its dedicated container near its intended balance to acclimate to the surrounding temperature. Don't place any weights near it. Also, a note on keeping it clean: always use clean gloves and tweezers. Your weight should be stored in a clean, dry, and stable environment. After using your calibration weight, be sure to clean it with a soft, lint-free cloth and return to its protective case.
