Grobet Digital Pocket Scale, 1000g x 0.1g, Dual Display & Parts Counting – 50-272

Measure small items, jewelry components, and workshop materials with this versatile digital pocket scale featuring a 1,000-gram maximum capacity and 0.1-gram readability. Designed for convenient portable weighing, it combines five weighing units, parts counting, and a dual-mode display in one compact tool.

Unlike basic pocket scales that display only one measurement at a time, this model features a dual-mode display that allows you to view two weighing modes simultaneously. This is particularly convenient when working with different measurement systems, such as grams and troy ounces, or when comparing weights without repeatedly switching between units.

The built-in parts-counting function adds another level of convenience for sorting and organizing small components. Whether you're working with beads, jewelry findings, screws, or other lightweight parts, the counting feature can help determine quantities of similar items.

A protective pan cover is included and can also be used to hold objects during weighing. This makes it easier to weigh small loose items that might otherwise roll or scatter on the weighing platform.

Powered by two AAA batteries, this compact scale is suitable for jewelry benches, repair stations, hobby workspaces, and general workshop applications.

1,000-Gram Capacity with 0.1-Gram Readability

The scale has a maximum weighing capacity of 1,000 grams, equivalent to 1 kilogram.

This provides greater weighing capacity than a 500-gram pocket scale while retaining 0.1-gram display increments.

The combination is useful when weighing small components, groups of parts, and materials that may exceed the capacity of smaller scales.

The 0.1-gram readability allows weights to be displayed in tenths of a gram rather than whole grams.

Readability is not the same as guaranteed accuracy. For applications requiring verified measurement accuracy, use a properly calibrated instrument with documented performance specifications.

Five Convenient Weighing Units

This scale supports five weighing units to accommodate different applications.

Grams (g)

A common metric unit for weighing jewelry components, craft supplies, and workshop materials.

Ounces (oz)

Useful for general weighing when measurements are required in standard ounces.

Troy Ounces (ozt)

Commonly used for precious metals, including gold and silver.

Grains (gn)

A traditional small-weight measurement unit used in certain specialized applications.

Pennyweight (dwt)

A traditional jewelry-industry measurement unit used when working with precious metals.

The ability to switch between these units makes the scale convenient for users who work with different measurement systems.

Dual-Mode Display

One of the most useful features of this scale is its dual-mode display.

Instead of switching back and forth between weighing units, you can view two measurement modes simultaneously.

This is convenient when comparing weights in different systems or when recording measurements for projects that require more than one unit.

For example, a jewelry maker may need to work with both grams and troy ounces.

The dual-mode display helps streamline this process by presenting two weighing modes at the same time.

Built-In Parts Counting

The parts-counting function provides an additional tool for organizing small components.

Rather than manually counting every item, the scale can be used to estimate the quantity of similar parts based on their weight.

This can be useful for beads, jewelry findings, miniature fasteners, and other small components with reasonably consistent individual weights.

For reliable counting, follow the scale's sampling instructions and use parts that are sufficiently uniform in weight.

Counting performance depends on the weight consistency of the parts and the scale's measurement capabilities.

Protective Pan Cover

The scale includes a pan cover that serves two purposes.

When the scale is stored, the cover helps protect the weighing area.

During use, the cover can also serve as a container for holding small items.

This is particularly useful for loose beads, findings, screws, and other components that might roll off a flat weighing platform.

When using the cover as a weighing container, follow the scale's instructions for zeroing or taring the container weight.

Jewelry and Precious-Metal Applications

Jewelry makers frequently work with small items and materials that require convenient weight measurements.

This scale supports grams, troy ounces, and pennyweight, providing several commonly used jewelry-industry measurement options.

Its 1,000-gram capacity makes it useful for a variety of general jewelry and workshop weighing tasks.

The dual-mode display can also be convenient when comparing measurements in different units.

For commercial precious-metal transactions, confirm that the scale meets any applicable legal-for-trade requirements.

Sorting Beads and Jewelry Findings

The parts-counting function is especially useful for projects involving numerous small components.

When working with similar beads or findings, weighing can help estimate quantities without manually counting every piece.

The pan cover provides a convenient place to hold loose items while weighing.

For the most reliable results, use components with consistent individual weights and follow the scale's counting instructions.

Workshop and Hobby Applications

The scale is also useful for model building, small hardware organization, and general hobby work.

Its 1,000-gram capacity allows it to accommodate a variety of small components and materials.

The multiple weighing units and counting function make it more versatile than a basic single-mode pocket scale.

For tasks requiring tightly controlled quantities or certified measurements, verify that the scale's specifications meet the intended requirements.

Battery-Powered Convenience

The scale operates using two AAA batteries.

Battery operation allows it to be used at different workstations without requiring a power outlet.

Replace the batteries as needed to maintain normal operation.

Proper Use and Care

1. Place the scale on a stable, level surface.

2. Install two AAA batteries according to the manufacturer's instructions.

3. Turn on the scale and allow the display to stabilize.

4. Select the desired weighing mode or modes.

5. Place the item gently on the weighing platform.

6. If using the pan cover as a container, follow the instructions for zeroing its weight.
