Buying advice

When choosing calibration weights, consider the accuracy class (e.g., ASTM Class 1-7 or OIML) required for your scale, the weight range you need, and whether you prefer a single weight or a set. For industrial scales, Class F or cast-iron weights are cost-effective. For lab balances, invest in a certified ASTM Class 2-4 weight. Always check that the weight's tolerance matches your scale's readability. Store weights in a case to avoid damage and contamination.
