KERN 346-89 Block Weight (OIML M1, 50 kg)
The Block Weight 346-89 is a single calibration mass designed for routine verification of industrial and laboratory scales, presented as a compact block for stable placement and easy handling
- Single calibration weight, OIML M1
- Nominal mass 50 kg
- Block design for stable placement
- Lacquered cast iron construction
Precise verification suitable for industrial checks
The OIML M1 classification describes the permissible tolerance and geometrical requirements for this class of calibration masses, making the item a trustworthy reference for routine verification and internal checks. With a 50 kg nominal mass, the unit serves as a mid‑range reference capable of reducing measurement uncertainty in regular calibration cycles. Explaining the standard in simple terms helps workshops and service departments understand that class M1 balances accuracy and cost, providing a pragmatic solution where very high‑precision reference standards are not required.
Durable block form that withstands workshop conditions
The block geometry delivers a low centre of gravity and a broad contact surface, which improves stability on weighing platters and minimises the risk of tipping during handling. Constructed from lacquered cast iron, the mass resists abrasion and humidity while maintaining dimensional stability under normal working conditions. The lacquered finish reduces corrosion and simplifies cleaning, which lowers maintenance effort and extends the service life of the reference mass in everyday metrology tasks.
Practical use and compliance considerations
As a single 50 kg reference, the unit is intended for scale verification, quality control and calibration checks within production environments and maintenance workshops. The simple block design supports straightforward storage and handling routines. Where documented traceability or an accredited calibration certificate is required, pairing the weight with a calibration laboratory is recommended to supply the necessary uncertainty statements and formal documentation for compliance purposes.

FAQ
Is this weight suitable for routine scale verification? Yes. The KERN 346-89 is an OIML M1 class single calibration mass intended for routine verification and internal calibration tasks where a 50 kg reference is required.
Can the block be used in humid or workshop environments? The lacquered cast iron construction of the 346-89 provides enhanced resistance to corrosion and wear, making it appropriate for typical workshop conditions while still preserving dimensional stability.
Does the weight include a calibration certificate? The product data does not specify a certificate; when a documented calibration is needed, the KERN 346-89 should be submitted to an accredited laboratory to obtain traceable measurement uncertainty and formal certification.
What are the handling and storage recommendations? Store the block weight on a stable, flat surface and avoid impacts. The compact block shape of the 346-89 aids safe placement and reduces tipping risk during handling and transport.
Is the mass suitable for trade or legal metrology? OIML M1 denotes a defined tolerance class; whether it meets legal requirements depends on local regulations and the specific application. Use the KERN 346-89 for verification and internal quality control and consult an accredited body for legal metrology approval if required.

Zubehör
Preserve measurement integrity by using a lightweight leather/cotton glove pair that shields calibration weights from finger oils and moisture, extending their service life and reducing cleaning intervals; order directly via Metav Werkzeuge or consult our specialists for application advice. KERN 317-290 gloves — Leather/Cotton protection for calibration weights The KERN 317-290 gloves are designed to protect calibration weights from contamination and moisture during handling in workshops and laboratories Leather-lined cotton construction for gentle handling Protects weights from finger oils and moisture Suitable for calibration weights from 2 kg Lightweight design, compact storage Preserve calibration accuracy with gentle handling Handling mass standards without protection risks surface contamination that affects repeatability and traceability. The KERN 317-290 glove pair combines leather/cotton materials to provide a soft, low-abrasion contact surface that significantly reduces transfer of finger oils and deposits. This gentle barrier supports consistent readings by limiting the need for frequent cleaning, which in turn helps to maintain calibration schedules and reduces downtime for precision equipment. Streamline daily workflows in workshop and lab A reliable handling solution simplifies routine procedures: the gloves are optimised for daily handling of weights and are particularly suited to masses from 2 kg upward, where manual manipulation is common. Their lightweight construction allows extended wear without fatigue, improving operator comfort and process throughput. By preventing contaminant transfer, the gloves help to keep weighing stations operational and reduce the frequency of weight surface maintenance. Durable solution from a trusted precision partner Selecting accessories from established manufacturers contributes to consistent quality across the supply chain. These gloves are supplied by KERN and distributed via Metav Werkzeuge, whose service model acts as a quality filter for European workshops. The combination of robust materials and proven distribution practices supports long-term reliability and a steady supply of precision accessories for industry and trade. For protected handling of calibration weights, choose the KERN 317-290 leather/cotton gloves — contact Metav Werkzeuge in Emmerich for tailored advice at info@metav-werkzeuge.com or by phone on +49 2822 7131930 Technical data Article number: 317 SKU: 317-290 GTIN: 4045761134300 Manufacturer: KERN Facts Weight: 0.01 kg Suitable for calibration weights from 2 kg eClass: 40011201 Special features Material: leather/cotton Protects calibration weights from finger oils and moisture Contents: 1 pair Intended use: handling calibration weights in workshop or laboratory FAQ Are these gloves suitable for all calibration weight sizes? The gloves are intended for use with calibration weights from 2 kg and above; for smaller masses alternative handling tools may be recommended. How do the gloves protect the weights? The leather/cotton construction of the KERN 317-290 minimises direct skin contact and reduces transfer of oils and moisture that can alter weight surfaces. Can the gloves be cleaned or reused? The gloves are designed for repeated use; follow manufacturer care instructions to maintain material performance and surface cleanliness. Will using the gloves reduce the need to clean weights? Regular use of protective gloves lowers contamination rates and consequently reduces the frequency of weight cleaning and maintenance. Who supplies these gloves through Metav? The gloves are supplied by KERN and distributed via Metav Werkzeuge (SKU 317-290) as part of precision handling accessories. KERN — address and direct contact details not provided by the supplier
