Block weight KERN 346-86 — OIML M1, 5 kg painted cast-iron block
A Block weight by KERN for reliable calibration and verification tasks in workshops and laboratories.
- OIML M1 certified single weight
- Nominal mass 5 kg for standard calibration
- Painted cast-iron block for robustness
- Suitable for workshop and laboratory checks
Consistent metrology performance for routine calibrations
The OIML M1 classification guarantees a defined tolerance of 250 mg, making this block mass a dependable reference for routine scale checks and non‑legal verification tasks. The nominal 5 kg mass provides a practical calibration point for bench and floor scales commonly used in production and quality control. By specifying the tolerance and class, traceability requirements are supported and drift can be identified quickly, reducing downtime and ensuring measurement comparability across shifts.
Durable block design that withstands workshop conditions
Constructed as a compact block in painted cast iron, the mass combines mechanical robustness with a form factor that resists accidental tipping and surface damage during handling. The coating improves corrosion resistance and eases cleaning after contact with oils or coolants. The solid geometry minimises the need for specialised mounting and enables quick placement on weighing pans, which supports efficient calibration cycles and a predictable service life in demanding shop environments.
Practical supply and traceable identification for inventory
Supplied by the recognised metrology brand KERN, the item is provided as a single calibration weight with a clear SKU and GTIN for inventory control, facilitating procurement and stock management. The block mass suits laboratories and workshops that prioritise straightforward handling and repeatable results. Where a documented verification history is required, the classification and nominal value allow easy logging in maintenance records and internal quality systems without additional adjustment or complex procedures.

Benefit from an aluminium-protected housing, a padded interior and compatibility with block weights up to 5 kg and calibration classes F1–M3 for safe storage and transport; Order the aluminium-protected case directly via Metav Werkzeuge or ask our consultants if needed. Aluminium-protected case KERN 346-060-600 — Protective case for 5 kg block weights, padded The Aluminium-protected case serves as a purpose-built transport and storage solution for single block weights, combining a robust outer shell with soft interior support to preserve calibration and dimensional integrity during handling. Aluminium-protected housing for block weights Suitable for block weights up to 5 kg Calibrated classes F1–M3 compatible 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.
