346-06 Block weight — KERN, OIML class M1, 5 kg stainless steel
346-06 Block weight is a precision calibration mass for use in industrial and laboratory weighing applications, designed as a robust stainless steel block for routine checks and reference calibrations.
- OIML class M1 accuracy
- Nominal mass 5 kg
- Stainless steel, glass‑bead blasted finish
Robust mass standard for routine calibration and industrial use
The stainless steel block construction provides mechanical stability and resistance to corrosion, making this calibration mass suitable for regular use in production and laboratory environments. The block format offers easy handling and stable seating on balance pans, while the glass‑bead blasted surface reduces adhesion of contaminants and simplifies cleaning. As an OIML class M1 mass, the reference is appropriate for calibrating industrial scales and balances where medium precision is required; the specified tolerance of 250 mg indicates the maximum permissible deviation for the nominal value. The result is predictable performance that supports repeatable measurement routines and reduces recalibration frequency.
Measurable accuracy and traceability for quality assurance
Designed for traceable measurement procedures, this mass supports quality control processes by providing a clear, measurable reference point. The 5 kg nominal value aligns with common calibration points used across manufacturing and inspection workflows, enabling straightforward verification of scale linearity and repeatability. For legal verification workflows, note that EC initial verification of test weights will no longer be possible from 30 November 2025; therefore a DAkkS calibration is recommended to maintain documented traceability and conformity for most applications. Choosing a calibrated mass improves process reliability and helps demonstrate compliance with internal and external audit requirements.
Practical handling, maintenance and compatibility considerations
Thanks to its compact block design and robust finish, the weight is easy to store and inspect between calibrations. Routine handling precautions—use of gloves, storage in a clean, low‑humidity environment and avoidance of mechanical shocks—preserve the reference value and surface condition. The material and finish support use on a wide range of balances without transferring residues; if recalibration is required, the DAkkS route provides the necessary documentation for tight quality systems. The manufacturer KERN is known for precision metrology equipment, and this product integrates into standard calibration programmes where a stable, mid‑range reference mass is required.

FAQ
What accuracy class does this calibration mass have? This calibration mass is OIML class M1, providing a tolerance of 250 mg for the 5 kg nominal value and suitability for medium‑precision industrial checks.
Is calibration included with the product? The product is supplied as a calibrated reference mass when ordered with calibration; for traceable documentation, Metav Werkzeuge recommends a DAkkS calibration for the KERN 346-06.
Can the 346-06 be used for legal verification of scales? From 30 November 2025, EC initial verification of test weights will no longer be possible; therefore, use of the KERN 346-06 with a DAkkS calibration is advised for documented conformity in most applications.
What is the surface finish and why does it matter? The mass is stainless steel with a glass‑bead blasted finish; this reduces contamination build‑up, eases cleaning and helps preserve the reference value during routine use.
How should the calibration mass be handled and stored? Handle with clean gloves, avoid impacts and store in a dry, clean environment; these precautions protect the surface and help retain the declared accuracy of the KERN 346-06.
