Adam Equipment ASTM 2 - 10g Calibration Weight, 10g Capacity, ASTM Class 2, Stainless Steel

Adam Equipment ASTM 2 Individual Calibration Weight, 10 g Precision Stainless Steel

The Adam Equipment ASTM 2 10 g calibration weight is a polished stainless steel individual weight meeting ASTM Class 2 tolerance specifications. At 10 g, it provides a practical and commonly referenced small-denomination calibration standard for precision balances used in quality control, laboratory analysis, and light industrial measurement, where Class 2 accuracy meets the requirements of the calibration protocol.

Key Features

• 10 g nominal value for calibrating precision and semi-analytical balances at small-denomination reference points
• ASTM Class 2 conformance meeting ANSI/ASTM defined tolerance limits for this class
• 7.9 g/cm³ density as specified for the ASTM Class 2-4 weight range
• Polished stainless steel construction for long-term corrosion resistance and mass stability
• Supplied in an impact-resistant plastic case to protect the weight from surface damage
• Serial number recorded on case for calibration traceability in quality management systems

Detailed Overview

The 10 g denomination is a frequently used calibration reference because it falls within the practical working range of most precision balances and provides a useful mid-scale linearity check point for instruments with capacities of 100 g to 500 g or higher. At ASTM Class 2 accuracy, the tolerance limits are appropriate for precision balances operating at readabilities from 1 mg to 10 mg in laboratory, pharmaceutical, and industrial quality control environments, where the highest ASTM classes are not mandated by the application's measurement standard or quality system requirements.

The polished stainless steel body and 7.9 g/cm³ density ensure that the weight maintains its nominal mass across repeated calibration events without significant drift caused by surface corrosion or contamination. The individual plastic case is particularly important for a small denomination like 10 g, where even a minor surface scratch or embedded particle could represent a measurable fraction of the weight's mass and potentially push it out of tolerance. The serial number supports the formal identification and documentation requirements of quality-managed calibration programmes.

Applications

• Precision balance linearity and sensitivity verification in laboratory settings
• Industrial and manufacturing quality control span and repeatability checks
• Pharmaceutical production weighing calibration and performance verification
• General laboratory calibration and routine balance maintenance programmes
