20 kg Calibration Weight Block OIML M1 Stainless Steel Shot-Blasted, 1 g Tolerance - KERN

Product information "20 kg Calibration Weight Block OIML M1 Stainless Steel Shot-Blasted, 1 g Tolerance - KERN"

Secure OIML M1 accuracy and a robust stainless steel block construction in one reference mass; benefit from traceable calibration options and order directly via Metav Werkzeuge or consult our advisors for DAkkS services.

KERN 346-08 Block Calibration Weight (20 kg, OIML M1)

A KERN 346-08 block calibration weight designed for industrial and laboratory scale verification, suitable for routine checks and reference measurements

  • OIML class M1 accuracy
  • Nominal mass 20 kg
  • Stainless steel, glass-bead blasted finish
  • Block design for stable placement

Consistent accuracy for routine verification

The OIML M1 classification ensures the reference mass meets stringent accuracy requirements, with a stated tolerance of 1 g for the nominal 20 kg value. This level of precision supports reliable routine verification and reduces the risk of weighing-related production errors. As a single reference weight, the item is optimised for repeatable checks and documented measurement processes, helping to maintain quality control across the workshop and production line.

Robust construction for longevity and easy handling

Made from stainless steel with a glass-bead blasted surface, the weight combines corrosion resistance with a finish that minimises surface reflections and smudging. The block design provides a low centre of gravity and a stable contact area, simplifying positioning on various scale pans and reducing handling-induced variability. The compact form and durable material translate into long service life and lower maintenance effort compared with more delicate reference masses.

Traceability, calibration and compliant use

The reference mass is supplied as a single block weight compliant with OIML M1, making it suitable for many industrial calibration tasks. Note that EC type approval (EG-Erstzeichnung) is no longer possible after 30.11.2025; accordingly, a DAkkS calibration is recommended for traceable certificates and broad acceptance in quality systems. Stocking a DAkkS-calibrated reference weight supports audit readiness and aligns calibration routines with recognised national standards.

FAQ

What does OIML M1 mean for everyday calibration tasks? OIML M1 denotes a recognised international accuracy class; the KERN 346-08 meets this class and is suitable for many industrial and laboratory verification procedures where systematic weighing accuracy is required.

Is a calibration certificate included or recommended? A calibration service is recommended. For traceability and formal documentation, a DAkkS calibration is advised for the KERN 346-08 to provide an accredited certificate acceptable in most quality systems.

How does the material finish affect performance? The stainless steel, glass-bead blasted finish limits corrosion and eases cleaning, while the block geometry improves stability on scale platforms; these features reduce handling errors and support repeatable results with the reference mass.

Can this weight be used for legal-for-trade verification? The KERN 346-08 conforms to OIML M1 accuracy class for reference purposes; for official legal-for-trade approvals, relevant national regulations should be consulted and DAkkS calibration considered where required.

20kg Aluminium-Protected Case For Block Test Weights, Padded, Class F1–M3 - KERN

Take advantage of a robust combination of lightweight aluminium protection, a padded interior and certified suitability for calibration classes F1–M3 to keep block weights safe in transit and storage. Order the case directly via Metav Werkzeuge or consult the Metav team for specification support. KERN 346-080-600 Aluminium-protected case for block weights, padded The Aluminium-protected case 346-080-600 is a padded transport and storage solution designed for block calibration weights used in laboratory and industrial environments. Aluminium protection housing Padded interior for secure storage Designed for block weights up to 20 kg Suitable for weight classes F1–M3 Robust protection that preserves calibration integrity This lightweight aluminium housing combines structural rigidity with reduced mass, creating a reliable shell for sensitive calibration artefacts. The internal padding secures each block against shocks and vibrations, lowering the risk of dents or surface damage that could alter mass distribution and affect accuracy. For metrology departments and service technicians, a well-protected weight reduces the frequency of re-calibration and associated downtime. The transport case is engineered to match the handling patterns typical for laboratories and mobile calibration services, translating to measurable savings in time and maintenance costs. Designed for calibration workflows and secure handling The case is tailored for block weights, offering precise cut-outs and cushioned support to prevent movement during handling and transit. By ensuring that each weight remains immobile, the case helps maintain the declared tolerance class throughout storage and transport. Compatibility with F1–M3 tolerance classes indicates suitability for a broad range of calibration tasks, from precision laboratories to routine verification in production environments. The combination of a corrosion-resistant outer shell and internal padding also simplifies logistic processes: weights can be moved between sites without additional packaging and with preserved traceability. Practical meaning of classes and how they benefit operations Tolerance classes such as F1 and M3 specify permissible deviation ranges and are widely used in traceable mass measurement. Choosing a dedicated storage solution for weights intended for these classes safeguards the nominal value against mechanical or environmental damage that could invalidate the calibration status. For teams responsible for quality assurance, using a purpose-built protective case reduces the risk of non-conformances during audits and supports consistent measurement results. The case also supports efficient organisation in the workshop or lab, keeping block weights accessible, identifiable and ready for use.
