KERN 315-276 Weight Handle — plastic-coated for 20 kg E1–M3 knob weights

A KERN 315-276 weight handle designed for secure, repeatable handling of calibration knob weights in high-precision environments.

• Plastic-coated gripping surface for weight protection
• Compatible with 20 kg knob weights E1–M3
• Not suitable for cast weights
• Lightweight 0.1 kg for minimal added mass

Precise handling tailored to calibration workflows

The primary benefit of this accessory is reliable handling during calibration and verification procedures. The plastic-coated surface prevents scratches and surface contamination on the weight, which is essential when working with legal-for-trade or laboratory-grade standards. Compatibility with 20 kg knob weights from classes E1–M3 ensures that measurement chains remain undisturbed, reducing the risk of weight damage that can lead to recalibration or non-conformity. By preserving the integrity of the reference mass, routine processes remain efficient and audit-ready.

Reduced risk and ergonomic advantage through material choice

A protective coating around the grip reduces metal-to-metal contact and offers an improved tactile feel during transfers between storage, balance and transport containers. The handle’s lightweight 0.1 kg construction minimises any influence on handling dynamics while offering a secure grip that lowers the chance of dropping delicate calibration weights. For workshops and calibration laboratories that perform repeated handling cycles, this translates into fewer handling errors and lower lifetime costs associated with weight damage or cleaning.

Integrates with quality-assured metrology practice

Designed for use in professional scales and calibration settings, the handle supports systematic workflows without introducing uncontrolled variables. Its specification—suitable for E1–M3 knob weights and explicitly not for cast weights—helps technicians select the correct tool for the task, ensuring compliance with calibration procedures and standards.

FAQ

Is the handle suitable for all 20 kg weights?
The handle is designed for 20 kg knob weights in classes E1–M3; it is not suitable for cast weights or other weight geometries.

How does the plastic coating benefit calibration weights?
The plastic-coated grip prevents surface damage and contamination, preserving the reference value and appearance of calibration weights during handling.

Can the handle affect measurement accuracy when placed on a balance?
The handle is intended for transfer and handling; it should not be placed on the balance together with the weight during measurement to avoid introducing additional mass.

What is the mass of the handle itself?
The handle weighs 0.1 kg, providing easy manoeuvrability without significant added mass during handling operations.
