Description
E1 wire weight is an individual test weight for precise laboratory calibration work in the milligram domain. Part of the E1 single-weight offering from 1 mg to 500 mg, it is produced from special steel that is non-magnetisable and highly corrosion-resistant and has a density of 8,0 g/cm³. Wire construction is well suited to low-mass standards, allowing controlled transfer onto balance pans during checks, adjustments and formal verification. The weight is delivered in a plastic box that shields the piece from contamination and mechanical damage between uses. This wire weight from manufacturer Sartorius addresses metrology needs where magnetic neutrality and corrosion resistance support long-term mass stability. Available as 1 pc, it is appropriate for laboratories building or maintaining discrete E1 references for quality control and instrument qualification. Defined material density and robust special-steel composition underpin repeatable weighing assurance in everyday analytical and production-support environments.
This article is part of Calibration & test weights, in Balances & scales.

Questions about Wire Weight 100 mg, OIML E1, DAkkS
What is this article?
Wire Weight 100 mg, OIML E1, DAkkS is the article on this page. Luminix Health distributes Sartorius for laboratory use. It sits in Calibration & test weights, inside Balances & scales, in Lab instruments.
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.
Which category should I open next?
The category is Balances & scales. The sub-category is Calibration & test weights. The catalogue is Lab instruments.
