Anti-parallax dial and pointer - easy to read even at an angle

Tare capability - tare loads up to 20% of caqpacity can be zeroed out with zero control

Dust protection - pinion gear, sector gear and shafts are mounted in precision aircraft bearings, permanently sealed against dust and dirt. Oiling is never required

Tough construction - mechanism case is a heavy aluminum allow casting, tough enough to resist even heavy blows

Ingenious design - utilizes a specially designed allow steel beam that translates force to pounds. Full scale reading results from beam deflection of only 0.026". Applied loads are indicated instantly.

Reduced wear - pinion and sector gears are cut from stainless steel and hardened aluminum. Use of these dissimilar materials greatly reduces friction and wear

Protective finish - scale cases are coated with a baked-on powder paint process making them resistant to chips, scratches, rust and corrosion

Maximum indicator - remains in position to indicate peak load point after load is removed from the scale
