Description
E2 calibration weight is an individual test weight intended for checking and adjusting laboratory balances and scales. It is manufactured from special steel that is high-gloss polished, non-magnetizable and highly corrosion-resistant, with a density of 8,0 g/cm³. The E2 single-weight range spans 1 g to 50 kg; pieces up to 20 g come in a plastic box and those from 50 g in a wooden case, safeguarding the polished surface during handling and storage. This article is supplied as 1 pc from manufacturer Sartorius and shows a net weight of 0,010 kg. The robust special-steel body and corrosion-resistant finish support repeated use in quality-control and service environments without rapid surface degradation. Non-magnetizable construction reduces magnetic interference that could affect sensitive weighing results. Laboratories employ E2 calibration weights for routine balance verification, intermediate checks between external calibrations, and documented weighing procedures where a defined accuracy class and stable mass artefact are required. Clear packaging options keep the weight protected when not in use and simplify organisation of multi-weight sets.
This article is part of Calibration & test weights, in Balances & scales.

Questions about Cylindrical Weight 10 g, OIML E2, DAkkS
What is this article?
Cylindrical Weight 10 g, OIML E2, 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.
