Description
Plastic screw-top box for 5 kg weights is a dedicated storage container that protects precision mass standards from surface damage during storage and transport. The screw-top closure helps keep 5 kg weight pieces clean and shielded from dust, abrasion and accidental contact that could compromise calibrated surfaces. Proper storage is a core element of laboratory good practice whenever reference and working weights must retain accuracy over time. This box forms part of a comprehensive accessory range for the correct handling, storage and cleaning of weight pieces available from manufacturer Sartorius. Supplied as a single unit, it is intended for metrology, quality-control and analytical laboratories that maintain 5 kg weights in their mass-standard inventory. Robust plastic construction provides practical protective housing while remaining convenient for bench or cabinet storage. Net weight and gross weight are each 0,500 kg. By isolating weights from uncontrolled environments, the screw-top design supports the long-term integrity of calibrated mass pieces and complements other handling tools used in professional weighing workflows focused on careful weight management.

Questions about Plastic screw box for 5 kg weights
What is this article?
Plastic screw box for 5 kg weights is the article on this page. Luminix Health distributes Sartorius for laboratory use. It sits in Balance accessories, calibration & certificates, inside Balances & scales, in Lab instruments.
These are the draft shields, the pans, the ionisers, the printers and the calibration certificates that belong to a balance. A certificate states the errors found at stated loads. It does not make a different balance correct.
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.
