Metric Attachment Weight Set (Product Code: SLE/ME/08) is a set of metric attachment weights used to extend the weighing capacity of a mechanical beam balance in school and college laboratories. According to the product listing, the set takes a balance with a 610 g capacity up to 2,610 g, so heavier objects can be weighed without buying a second, larger balance. It is supplied by Jain Scientific Equipments Pvt Ltd (ScienceLab), Ambala, India.

Attachment weights let a beam balance weigh objects heavier than its sliding riders can reach. Each weight is attached at the end of the beam and adds a fixed amount to the reading; the riders then measure the remainder, and the object’s mass is the sum of the attached weights and the rider readings. Students can weigh rocks, filled containers, soil samples or bulky apparatus that would otherwise overload the balance.
Used this way, a single balance covers both light and heavy work in mechanics lab equipment sets and general science practicals. Zero the balance with nothing on the pan before attaching any weight, handle the weights with clean, dry hands, and keep the set together so no piece goes missing. A dirty or damaged weight changes every reading made with it, so inspect the set at the start of each term.
ScienceLab is the trading name of Jain Scientific Equipments Private Limited, which supplies the Metric Attachment Weight Set from Ambala, Haryana, to schools, colleges, science centres and dealers in India and international markets. Because attachment weights have to suit the beam they hang on, buyers are asked to share their balance details in the enquiry so the right set is quoted. Company background is on the ScienceLab profile.
