Reliable accuracy for routine verifications
The OIML Class M3 rating indicates suitability for regular verification and control tasks where traceable accuracy is required without lab-grade expense. With a nominal value of 5 kg and a tolerance of 2.5 g, this calibration weight provides a clear, verifiable error band for many industrial and workshop scales. Class M3 is commonly used in production, goods receipt and maintenance checks; explaining the class helps operators select the correct weight for their compliance needs.
Durable construction for everyday workshop use
Manufactured in a painted cast iron finish, the block-style design offers robust handling characteristics that suit busy environments. The Block Eco form minimises exposed edges and reduces the risk of accidental chipping, extending service life compared with uncoated components. This combination of material and shape supports cost-effective service intervals and straightforward storage on the shop floor, contributing to lower lifetime operating costs for calibration equipment.
Practical fit for metrology and quality control workflows
As a single weight in a compact format, this solution simplifies on-site checks where a full set is unnecessary. The calibration weight is compatible with a wide range of balances used in incoming goods inspection, maintenance rounds and production monitoring. Clear specification and simple handling streamline integration into standard operating procedures, helping maintenance teams keep scales within acceptable limits and reducing downtime associated with uncertain measurements.

Take advantage of gentle, cotton handling and reliable contamination protection to extend the service life of precision weights; order directly from Metav Werkzeuge or contact our consultants for tailored advice. Gloves KERN 317-280 — Cotton gloves for protecting test weights up to 2 kg The Gloves KERN 317-280 are designed to protect test weights and precision masses from finger grease and moisture during everyday handling in workshops and calibration labs. Cotton construction for gentle handling Protects test weights from finger grease Suitable for test weights up to 2 kg Lightweight, reusable pair for workshop use Preserve measurement accuracy with clean handling Handling delicate masses without contamination helps to maintain precision and reduces the need for frequent recalibration. The KERN cotton gloves provide an effective barrier against finger grease and light moisture, keeping surfaces free of oils that can alter measured mass. By preventing direct contact, the gloves contribute to consistent readings and minimise the risk of measurement drift, supporting reliable quality control in routine metrology tasks. Practical protection for everyday workshop routines Lightweight and easy to store, this pair is tailored for straightforward use in production and service environments. The simple design allows quick application while handling small test weights, helping to maintain workflow speed without compromising care. Suitable for masses up to 2 kg, the gloves enable safe manipulation of common calibration weights, combining protection with operational convenience to keep processes efficient and repeatable. Why cotton is the right material for delicate tools Cotton fibres offer a soft, absorbent contact surface that decreases the transfer of oils and residues onto sensitive metal surfaces. The natural fabric reduces abrasion risk compared with harsher materials, providing gentle handling that preserves finish and mass integrity. At an almost negligible net weight, the gloves do not affect the handling ergonomics of small weights but do increase confidence in routine handling and storage practices.
