RICE LAKE 21229 Pelican Calibration Weight Cases

Guidelines for Selecting a Case:

• Find the diameter, height and total mass of the weights that will need a case
• Review case dimensions to determine best fit
• Note weight limits of the case and choose accordingly

Things to keep in mind:

• Foam needs 0.5 inches between weights and edge of case
• Always select the smallest case best fitting your need
• Weights should always be stored and transported in the upright position
• The shoulder edge of the weight should be level with the foam insert
• Some cases are recommended for storage only and should not be used for shipping
