1,000-Gram Weighing Capacity
With a maximum capacity of 1,000 grams, this scale can accommodate heavier items than a 500-gram pocket scale.
The additional capacity is useful when weighing larger jewelry components, groups of parts, or materials that exceed the limits of smaller scales.
Always account for the total weight placed on the platform, including any container used to hold the material.
Do not exceed the scale's rated capacity.
0.1-Gram Readability
The scale displays gram measurements in increments of 0.1 gram.
This allows you to record weights with more detail than a scale that displays only whole grams.
Readability describes the smallest displayed increment and is not the same as guaranteed measurement accuracy.
For applications requiring certified accuracy, use a properly calibrated instrument that meets the applicable requirements.
Four Convenient Weighing Units
Grams (g)
A practical measurement unit for general workshop weighing, jewelry components, craft materials, and small hardware.
Ounces (oz)
Useful when weights need to be recorded in standard ounces.
Troy Ounces (ozt)
Commonly used in precious-metal applications, including gold and silver weighing.
Pennyweight (dwt)
A traditional jewelry-industry measurement unit used when working with precious metals.
The four-unit selection makes this scale convenient for users who regularly work with different weight measurement systems.
Larger Weighing Platform
The 4-1/16-inch-square platform provides a larger weighing area than many compact pocket scales.
This makes it easier to position appropriately sized objects during weighing.
The larger surface is especially useful for small groups of components, jewelry materials, and items with wider shapes.
For accurate readings, position objects so their weight is properly supported on the platform.
Compact Bench-Scale Design
Despite its larger weighing platform, the scale has an overall footprint of approximately 5 inches by 4 inches.
Its low-profile design makes it convenient for use on a jewelry bench, hobby table, or workshop surface.
Battery operation allows it to be moved between work areas without requiring a power outlet.
For consistent measurements, use the scale on a stable, level surface.
Jewelry and Precious-Metal Applications
Jewelry makers often need to weigh small components and precious-metal materials.
This scale provides four weighing units, including troy ounces and pennyweight, which are commonly used in jewelry-related work.
Its larger platform can accommodate a variety of jewelry components and small collections of findings.
For commercial precious-metal transactions, confirm that the scale meets applicable legal-for-trade requirements before use.
Hobby and Workshop Applications
The 1,000-gram capacity makes this scale useful for a variety of general workshop tasks.
It can help compare component weights, measure small quantities of materials, and organize hardware or craft supplies.
The 0.1-gram display increments provide useful detail for applications where whole-gram measurements are insufficient.
Always verify that the scale's documented accuracy meets the requirements of your particular task.
Battery-Powered Convenience
The scale operates using a 9V battery, which is included.
Battery power allows the scale to be used at different workstations without a separate power adapter.
Replace the battery as needed to maintain normal operation.
