Description
Knob weight M2 is an individual test weight for laboratory and industrial balance verification. It belongs to the M2 single-weight series covering nominal values from 1 g to 10 kg and is produced from finely turned brass. Units up to 20 g are delivered in a plastic box, while weights from 50 g come in a wooden case that protects the piece during transport and storage. The knob form factor allows secure handling when placing the mass on a balance pan during routine checks. Offered by manufacturer Sartorius, this piece supports quality-control and metrology tasks that specify M2 class individual weights. The article is supplied as one piece with a net weight of 0,020 kg and a gross weight of 0,103 kg, so it can be stocked easily with other reference masses. Finely turned brass provides a durable body for repeated laboratory handling. Use this knob weight for periodic balance testing, comparative weighing and maintenance of weighing processes where an M2 individual weight is required in controlled laboratory environments and everyday verification workflows.
This article is part of Calibration & test weights, in Balances & scales.

Questions about Knob Weight 2 g, OIML M2, DAkkS
What is this article?
Knob Weight 2 g, OIML M2, 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.
