Description
Weight handle KERN 315-276 is a plastic-coated grip developed for secure, contamination-free handling of precision knob weights in laboratory and industrial metrology. It is specifically suited to knob weights with a nominal value of 20 kg belonging to accuracy classes E1 through M3, allowing operators to lift and position heavy test masses without direct skin contact that could affect surface integrity or calibration status. The durable plastic coating improves grip comfort and protects both the weight and the user during repeated verification cycles. This accessory from manufacturer Kern is explicitly not intended for cast weights, keeping its design focused on high-precision knob-style masses used in balance adjustment and routine checks. Supplied as a single piece with a net weight of 0,40 kg (gross weight 0,50 kg), the handle integrates easily into existing calibration workflows in quality-control laboratories, production weighing stations and accredited metrology facilities. Its robust construction supports frequent daily use alongside OIML-class test weights, helping maintain measurement reliability while simplifying the physical handling of 20 kg reference masses.
This article belongs on Balance accessories, calibration & certificates, in Balances & scales.

Questions about Weight grip KERN 315-276
What is this article?
Weight grip KERN 315-276 is the article on this page. Luminix Health distributes KERN 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.
