KERN 316-05 — Calibration weight, 20 g, OIML E2, polished stainless steel
KERN 316-05 is a precision calibration weight in compact form for routine verification and adjustment of laboratory and industrial balances.
- Calibration weight class E2, 20 g
- Polished stainless steel for corrosion resistance
- Compact form 13×20 mm cylinder
- Tolerance 0.08 mg for high-precision checks
Accuracy that keeps measurement processes compliant
The OIML E2 classification and a declared tolerance of 0.08 mg make this mass standard suitable where low measurement uncertainty is required. For legal metrology checks, quality assurance and laboratory verification, the declared limits provide a clear numerical basis to evaluate balance performance. The combination of a small nominal mass and precise tolerance reduces drift-related correction needs and supports traceable measurement procedures, improving process reliability and audit readiness.
Compact shape for safe handling and repeatable results
Thanks to its compact form and the cylinder dimensions of 13×20 mm, the weight occupies minimal bench space and is easy to place on balances with restricted pan area. The polished stainless steel finish offers corrosion resistance and simplifies cleaning, which helps maintain long-term stability of the nominal mass. A compact, robust geometry minimises handling errors and contributes to reproducible results during routine checks and comparative tests.
Built to integrate into calibration workflows
This single-piece mass standard is designed for straightforward integration into existing calibration routines: it is ideal for balance checks, routine verification and documentation of measurement uncertainty. For secure storage and to protect the specification, a purpose-made case is recommended. Metav Werkzeuge supplies the weight with the backing of a European quality filter and can advise on suitable accessories and handling procedures to preserve the instrument’s accuracy over time.
Certified manufacture and traceability for quality systems
Produced by a recognised manufacturer with origin in Germany, the weight meets the expectations of laboratories and workshops that require certified reference masses. Using a certified 20 g standard reduces systematic error in small-mass applications and supports conformity with internal quality control or external accreditation requirements. The compact, polished mass standard thus becomes a reliable component in maintenance of measurement quality and regulatory compliance.
