Balances
Laboratory balances are used to measure an object’s mass to a very high degree of precision.
They consist of a beam with a friction-free fulcrum, a pointer which attaches to the beam and amplifies deviation from the balance position, and fractional weights which are applied along the beam’s measuring arm.
Laboratory balances provide high readability, a broad weighting range, and a high degree of accuracy.

Capacity: 80g - 250g Readability: 0.0001g Designed for scientists, the Nimbus series of balances offers a range of models that deliver a full breadth of precision readabilities ranging from 0.1mg to 0.1g. Innovative design enables a reduction of the balances footprint, so it occupies less space but retains the highest level of performance. A single piece of extruded aluminium forms the balance base. The aluminium provides superior thermal transfer for a more regulated temperature, while the solid core is more rigid, offering greater stability and enabling highly repeatable results. -
Capacity: 220g - 22kg Readability: 1mg - 0.1g Designed for scientists, the Nimbus series of balances offers a range of models that deliver a full breadth of precision readabilities ranging from 0.1mg to 0.1g. Innovative design enables a reduction of the balances footprint, so it occupies less space but retains the highest level of performance. A single piece of extruded aluminium forms the balance base. The aluminium provides superior thermal transfer for a more regulated temperature, while the solid core is more rigid, offering greater stability and enabling highly repeatable results. The internal mechanism is fabricated using hardened materials, helping the Nimbus tolerate rigorous laboratory use. -
Capacity: 120g - 3000g Readability: 0.001g - 0.1g Highland balances have what it takes for basic lab work, field use and various industrial applications.
