WB-40-10K Weigh Bars 40" Digital Readout 10,000 lb.

WB-40-10K is an entry level, economy 40" long 10,000 lb capacity weigh bar scale. System includes basic digital weighing indicator with new 40" L x 4" W weigh bars to bring an affordable solution to budget-minded consumers. This scale uses NTEP load cells and digital indicator has a rechargeable battery, and has basic animal weighing capability. This is a great scale for small 4H clubs, FFA organizations, etc, with goats, sheep, pigs, yearlings and small cattle. It is also good for most warehousing applications. The bars themselves are a little unstable with no weight applied. A big part of this is due to the load cell feet which are by design very flexible allowing for self alignment. In our opinion, you would be best served to screw the adjustable feet in quite a bit and place some kind of heavier item across the beams to help stabilize the overall system. An example might be placing a fifty pound wooden pallet across the beams or a 3/4 inch piece of heavy plywood. After you do this you can zero out the weight. In some rare case this might require you to do a calibration but the instructions are in the user manual if that happens.
