Multipurpose Field Scale

This Multipurpose Field Scale has either Metric or Avoirdupois scales with capacities of 16 kg or 36 lb and readabilities of 5 g or 0.01 lb, respectively. They are the scale of choice for sand cone density tests, but are designed for general laboratory and field weighing. Includes round, slotted, iron weights that are conveniently stored in a weight storage rack and covered, self-aligning bearings for maintenance-free use. There is a built-in carrying handle, locking graduated poise and an 11-in (28 cm) diameter stainless steel weighing platform.
