Measuring Balance with Weights - Pack of 4

The Measuring Balance with Weights – Pack of 4 is ideal for classroom group work, allowing multiple students to explore and compare mass concepts simultaneously. Each set includes four high-quality, durable plastic balances designed for primary and upper primary learners. These balances are perfect for accurately measuring the mass of both solids and liquids and are equipped with clear 1-litre graduated buckets and lids. Each balance features an easy zero adjustment knob for precise readings and built-in storage for the included weights. Every unit is supplied with 14 stackable plastic weights (2 x 20g, 4 x 10g, 8 x 5g) and 11 metal weights (1 x 50g, 2 x 20g, 2 x 10g, 2 x 5g, 2 x 2g, 2 x 1g), totalling 246 grams. The pack supports collaborative, hands-on learning in both maths and science, with each balance measuring 47 cm long and 14.5 cm high. The included instruction sheets make them easy to set up and use for a variety of educational activities.
