KERN ECO Block Weight 356-79 — OIML Class M2, 50 kg painted cast iron
The KERN ECO Block Weight is a single 50 kg calibration mass designed for routine checks and verification of industrial and laboratory scales.
- OIML Class M2 accuracy
- 50 kg nominal mass
- Painted cast-iron construction
- Block Eco compact design
Reliable conformity for routine calibrations
The OIML Class M2 classification defines a clear tolerance band for mid-range verification, here specified as 8 g, which supports consistent and traceable results when checking floor and bench scales. As a 50 kg nominal mass, this block is suitable for standard calibration intervals and periodic conformity checks in production and quality-control environments. The technical specification offers a practical balance between precision and cost-efficiency, ensuring measurable compliance with international weighing recommendations while keeping verification workflows straightforward.
Durable design that reduces downtime
Constructed from painted cast iron, the block format resists surface wear and preserves mass stability during regular handling and storage. The compact Block Eco design simplifies transport and stacking, lowering the risk of deformation compared with more delicate geometries. Robust material choice and a protective finish minimise the need for frequent repair or replacement, which in turn supports continuous operation on the shop floor and reduces interruptions to measurement processes.
Practical integration and traceable use
As a single calibration mass, the ECO block is immediately usable for verification tasks without additional assemblies or adapters. The simple geometry eases placement on platforms and ensures stable contact with weighing surfaces, which is important for repeatable readings. Documentation of the OIML Class M2 tolerance and the nominal 50 kg value supports audit trails and quality records. For customers seeking a dependable test weight that fits within established calibration regimes, this mass provides a pragmatic solution that aligns with common industrial workflows.

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.
