Adam Equipment ASTM 4 - 5000g Stainless Steel Calibration Weight, 5000g, ASTM Class 4

Adam Equipment ASTM 4 – 5000g Stainless Steel Calibration Weight, ASTM Class 4

The Adam Equipment ASTM 4 – 5000g calibration weight provides a robust 5 kg reference mass at ASTM Class 4 tolerances, making it a practical choice for calibrating general-purpose and industrial balances. Built from polished stainless steel and manufactured in compliance with ANSI/ASTM E617, this individual weight supports reliable scale verification in a wide range of workplace and commercial settings. At 5 kg, it is one of the larger denominations in the ASTM stainless range.

Key Features

• ASTM Class 4 tolerance level — suited for general-purpose and industrial scale calibration
• Polished stainless steel construction with a 7.9 g/cm³ density for consistent mass representation
• Supplied in an impact-resistant plastic case to protect the weight surface between uses
• Complies with ANSI/ASTM E617 Class 4 requirements for general industrial calibration
• Serial number recorded on the case supports straightforward traceability record-keeping
• Sold individually, enabling targeted purchase for specific calibration needs

Detailed Overview

ASTM Class 4 is designed for general-purpose calibration where the very tight tolerances of higher classes are not required but reliable, consistent mass values are still important for valid scale testing. The polished stainless finish resists surface oxidation and makes cleaning straightforward, which is particularly valuable for weights used frequently in demanding environments or transferred between locations. The protective plastic case keeps the weight isolated from bench surfaces and environmental contaminants when not in use.

For facilities that need a large reference mass for straightforward industrial scale testing, the ASTM 4 – 5000g offers an economical, ANSI-compliant option that can be acquired individually or combined with other denominations to build a complete calibration programme. The 5000 g denomination is widely used for verifying industrial bench scales and platform balances in commercial and trade settings, where demonstrating compliance with measurement standards is an ongoing operational requirement.

Applications

• Testing and calibrating industrial and bench scales with kilogram-range capacities
• Routine verification checks in warehousing, logistics, and manufacturing environments
• General-purpose balance calibration in workshops and trade settings
• Calibration support in educational or technical training facilities
• Replacement or supplementary weight for existing Class 4 calibration programmes

Why Choose the Adam Equipment ASTM 4 – 5000g?
