This set of Rice Lake calibration weights provides a robust and dependable solution for routine scale verification in demanding settings. Engineered to comply with ASTM E617-18 Class 5 tolerances and NIST Handbook 44 requirements, these stainless steel weights serve as essential field standards. Their primary application is the testing and tolerance checking of Class III trade scales and other non-classified scale equipment, ensuring daily measurements remain within acceptable legal-for-trade or process control parameters.
The weights are machined from solid stainless steel, offering superior resistance to corrosion and wear compared to plated alternatives, which extends their service life in harsh environments. Each weight features a clearly marked nominal value for easy identification and a sealing cavity to allow for professional adjustment, ensuring long-term mass stability. This combination of durability, compliance, and practical design makes the set a fundamental tool for maintenance technicians, quality control personnel, and scale service professionals who require a portable and reliable mass standard for field use.
