Specific Gravity Cups
Quickly determine specific gravity or weight per gallon
Use these precision-made stainless steel cups with your laboratory balance to determine
specific gravity or pounds per gallon. Simply tare balance to cup weight, then weigh cup filled
with sample. Order cups for US Standard or British Standard determinations. All cups meet MIL
STD 45662A and are NIST-traceable; full-size cups are available with NIST-traceable calibration
report supplied by the manufacturer.
Cups with tare weights let you use your pan balance for specific gravity measurements. Tare
weights are adjusted to within ±0.2 grams of cup weight (0.1 gram for 8.32-mL cups).

Pycnometer
Determine specific gravity of semifluids
This aluminum-alloy ­pycnometer is designed to ­withstand pressure ­necessary to force air from
viscous ­material and cause it to completely fill pycnometer shell. Each piece of the instrument is
cut from solid bar stock to ensure an absence of pits or cavities. Close ­manufacturing tolerances
ensure test material will not be forced into threads. To use, tare balance to pycnometer weight,
then fill pycnometer with test material and cover container with lid. Screwing down lid forces
excess material out through a 1⁄8" (3.2 mm) hole. Reweigh filled pycnometer and ­determine
density by ­weighing pycnometer filled with water and ­computing the ­difference.

C onveniently determine the density
of ingredients and products
Gay-Lussac bottles have ground-in,
perforated glass stoppers with outer
ground-on cap to reduce evaporation. Choose
from unadjusted and adjusted models.
Unadjusted models must be calibrated
with water before use. Adjusted bottles are
calibrated to ASTM Test Reference D-369—
just fill with sample and weigh.

Density Determination Kit
Density kit for analytical balances
25751-00
Use with the buoyancy technique, displacement principle, or pycnometer method to determine
density of solid, powder, or liquid samples. Kit includes weighing pans and plummets to easily
adapt to your application. Sample holders let you measure in air or in a medium causing buoyancy.
Special design prevents air bubbles from adhering so results won’t be distorted. Specially shaped
sieve lets you completely immerse your sample to weigh a substance with a density less than that
of the liquid causing buoyancy. Compatible with balances with different readability ranges—simply
exchange the pan adapter. Use with most Sartorius analytical balances.
What’s included: two beakers (76 and 55 mm), bar frame, thermometer with retainer clip, glass
plummet, sieve for immersing samples, sample holder, metal platform, gasket for ME models,
and three adapters.
