With a two-pan design based on the classic Roberval balance principle, Ohaus Harvard Trip mechanical balances feature the additional advantages of magnetic damping, beams with sliding weights and a variety of weighing platforms.
Commonly used for comparative weighing to determine the difference in mass between two objects, rather than their absolute value, these mechanical scales come equipped with built-in sliding masses. Harvard Trip mechanical scales are known for their accuracy and durability - constructed and precision-engineered for years of maintenance-free laboratory use.
