Description
Test weight class M1 stainless steel, 2000 g ± 100 mg is a precision calibration weight intended for checking and adjusting laboratory balances and industrial scales. Fabricated from corrosion-resistant stainless steel, it delivers stable mass values for routine verification tasks in analytical chemistry, quality assurance and production environments. The nominal mass of 2000 g is held within a tolerance of ± 100 mg, corresponding to OIML accuracy class M1. An individual protective case is included with every unit, while a calibration certificate is not supplied. Produced by manufacturer Labbox under the METRIA product line, the weight follows the recommendations of OIML R-111 and is offered as a single piece with a net weight of 2,000 kg. Laboratories use such class M1 weights for regular performance checks of medium-accuracy balances, ensuring measurement consistency without the need for higher-class reference standards. Its robust construction and defined tolerance make it a practical choice for daily metrology support in educational, research and industrial settings where reliable mass comparison is essential.

Questions about Precision weight, stainless steel, class M1, 2000 g ± 100 mg
What is this article?
Precision weight, stainless steel, class M1, 2000 g ± 100 mg is the article on this page. Luminix Health distributes Labbox 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?
