Dual-Unit Display with Tare Function

The Hanson hanging scale features a large, easy-to-read dial that displays weight in both kilograms and pounds. This makes the scale usable anywhere in the world. The tare function allows you to zero out the weight of containers or nets, so you measure only the contents. This tare function is particularly useful for fishing nets, buckets, or bags.

Precision and Accuracy

With accuracy to 10 grams and a sensitivity of 500 grams, this scale provides reliable measurements for both light and heavy items. The dial mechanism is factory-calibrated and holds its accuracy through years of use.

Durable Construction

Built for tough environments, the Hanson hanging scale features a sturdy steel frame that withstands rough handling and heavy loads. The corrosion-resistant finish resists rust from moisture and outdoor use. The hardened metal hook provides a secure attachment point for weighing items. The impact-resistant dial cover protects the gauge face from damage.

Portable and Easy to Store

The compact design measures approximately 11.5 by 7 by 2.5 cm and weighs just 1 kg. This makes the Hanson hanging scale easy to carry in a backpack, tackle box, or glove compartment. When not in use, it stores flat without taking up valuable space.

Overload Protection

The scale includes overload protection that prevents damage if you accidentally exceed the maximum weight. The mechanism is designed to withstand short-term overloads without losing calibration.

What’s in the Box

Each Hanson hanging scale includes the scale unit with an integrated hanging ring. The package includes two heavy-duty hooks, one for the top and one for the bottom. A user manual with calibration instructions is also included.

A Trusted Name in Weighing

The Hanson name has been synonymous with quality scales since the early 20th century. From antique dairy scales used on farms to modern hanging scales, Hanson has built a reputation for accuracy and durability that professionals trust.
