This Rice Lake 5 kg calibration weight is an essential tool for metrology professionals and quality control technicians who require dependable mass standards. Manufactured to rigorous ASTM Class 2 tolerances, it ensures your weighing instruments are performing accurately, which is critical for compliance, research integrity, and operational efficiency. The weight is constructed from high-quality materials with a standardized density of 7.84 g/cm³ to minimize the effects of air buoyancy during precise calibrations.
The complete kit format enhances both the utility and longevity of the standard. The included hard case protects the weight from dust, moisture, and impact damage during storage or transport, preserving its certification. Using the supplied glove to handle the weight prevents oils and debris from the skin from altering its mass, maintaining its stated accuracy over its service life. This single-weight kit is ideal for routine calibration checks of bench, floor, and other scales with capacities at or above 5 kg.
