Beschreibung
Wire weight F1 is a fine calibration weight designed for precise balance checking in laboratory and metrology settings. Belonging to the F1 accuracy class covering 1 mg to 10 kg overall, the lower range up to 500 mg is realised as compact plate or wire-style pieces according to the nominal value. Materials are specified by mass band: aluminium with a density of 2,7 g/cm³, nickel silver at 8,7 g/cm³ for 1 mg to 5 mg pieces, and non-magnetisable special steel at 8,0 g/cm³ for 10 mg to 500 mg pieces. The special steel is highly corrosion-resistant, and knob weights in the broader series receive a high-gloss polish; the assortment is organised in a wooden case for secure handling. This wire weight from manufacturer Sartorius is supplied as 1 pc with a net weight of 0,005 kg and is suited to internal verification, service calibration and quality routines that depend on stable F1 reference masses under ordinary room-temperature laboratory conditions.
This article is part of Calibration & test weights, in Balances & scales.

Questions about Wire Weight 500 mg, OIML F1
What is this article?
Wire Weight 500 mg, OIML F1 is the article on this page. Luminix Health distributes Sartorius for laboratory use. It sits in Calibration & test weights, inside Balances & scales, in Präzisionsinstrumente.
A test weight is a mass of a stated class, used to check a balance. The class sets the tolerance. A weight that is dirty, or that has been handled with bare fingers, is no longer that class. The certificate ties the weight to a standard.
A balance compares a mass with a standard. An analytical balance reads to 0.1 mg or finer and needs a draft shield and a stable bench. A precision balance is coarser and faster. A platform scale takes a heavier load. The reading is only as good as the calibration chain back to the kilogram, which is why test weights and a certificate exist. A moisture analyser is a balance with a heater: it records the loss of mass as water leaves. The unit of mass is kept by the BIPM, compared across Europe by EURAMET, and accredited by BELAC. NIST publishes the same measurement foundations.
