Internal padding for secure storage

Safe storage that preserves calibration

The KERN aluminium shell provides a rigid barrier against impacts and abrasion, while the padded interior prevents micro-movements that can affect a mass artefact’s calibration. For laboratories and calibration shops where traceability and repeatability matter, a dedicated protective case reduces the risk of accidental knocks and environmental contamination. The solid construction helps maintain the declared mass values and extends the service life of the weights, contributing to fewer recalibrations and more predictable maintenance intervals.

Compatibility with calibration classes and handling benefits

Designed specifically for block weights and compatible with classes F1–M3, this case supports common metrological workflows and storage protocols. The internal layout is suited to a standard block form and secures items up to 5 kg, ensuring conformity with class-specific handling. Using a dedicated case reduces handling time during inspections and audits and simplifies storage logistics in a busy workshop or calibration room. Clear class compatibility also aids procurement decisions, aligning the storage solution with formal calibration schedules and quality management systems.

Lightweight design for workshop efficiency

Constructed from aluminium, the case remains lightweight (approx. 1.25 kg) while offering durable protection, making it practical to move between benches, labs and transport crates without adding excessive bulk. The reduced weight simplifies manual handling and lowers transport effort when compared with heavier protective solutions, yet the material resists corrosion and everyday wear. This balance of low mass and high protection supports efficient workshop routines and helps maintain the condition of precision masses across frequent use.
