Specifications

Four Convenient Weighing Units

Grams (g): A practical unit for general weighing of small components, craft supplies, and other materials.

Ounces (oz): Useful when measurements are needed in the standard ounce system.

Troy Ounces (ozt): Commonly used for precious metals and jewelry-related weight measurements.

Pennyweight (dwt): A traditional jewelry-industry unit used when working with precious metals.

Switching between these units allows you to use the measurement system best suited to your work without manually converting every reading.

Folding Protective Cover

The plastic cover protects the weighing platform when the scale is not in use.

It also folds flat, providing additional clearance when weighing objects that extend beyond the platform.

This design is especially convenient for jewelry components and small items that may have irregular shapes.

Compact Size for Workbench Use

Measuring 3-3/8 inches wide, 4-7/8 inches deep, and 7/8 inch high, this pocket scale fits easily into a small work area.

The 2-1/2-inch-square weighing platform provides space for individual items and small quantities of materials.

For consistent readings, position the scale on a firm, level surface away from drafts and vibration.
