Calibration Weights by Class

All Class F Weights are now at Class 5 Standards

Beginning January 1, 2020, Rice Lake Class F calibration weights will no longer be sold for legal metrology use. According to the newly updated NIST Handbook 105-1 (2019), new weights for use as field standards placed into service for weights and measures use after this date must comply with all of the requirements of NIST Handbook 105-1 (2019). In order to update our Class F inventory to bring it more in line with ASTM and OIML tolerances, all Rice Lake NIST Class F weights will become ASTM Class 5 weights. Part numbers and pricing will remain the same, but the tolerance will be tighter.

Note that existing NIST Class F calibration weights in the field are grandfathered in and may continue to be used for legal metrology use, but they must meet NIST Handbook 105-1 (1990) requirements. Although the new revision does supersede the 1990 version, it makes clear that existing Class F weights may continue to be used.

While existing NIST Class F calibration weights may be reclassified to one of the new specifications if all specifications and tolerances fully comply with the alternative standard, the NIST Office of Weights and Measures strongly recommends that you do not reclassify existing Class F weights due to the difficulty of performing compliance evaluation.

This change is taking place to accommodate for the increasing accuracy of weighing devices used for legal metrology. Class F weights are no longer sufficient for the calibration, inspection, or sealing of weighing devices used for the jewelry, marijuana and pharmaceutical industries. Similarly, hydrogen for hydrogen vehicles is being sold by weight, which demands a high level of accuracy.

Class 0

Class 0 Used as a primary reference for calibrating other reference standards and weights. Class 0 weights are intended to be used in metrology laboratories where the stability of the environment and careful handling are assured. Although very stable, one-piece construction Class 0 weights have no method of adjustment and are not suitable for general laboratory use. The uncertainty is guaranteed to be 1/3 the tolerance.

Rice Lake Company History

1940s In 1946, Donald B. Johnson and Warren Thomas opened the doors of Thomas & Johnson Scale Service in Saint Paul. The doors they opened were the garage doors belonging to Donald's father-in-law. In 1948, Thomas & Johnson Scale moved to Rice Lake, Wisconsin where there was a growing demand for scale service from creameries and cheese processing enterprises. Their founding principal remains the same today: "Take care of the customer and the rest of the business will take care of itself."

1950s In the late 1950s, scale dealers were in dire need of scale repair parts. Donald B. fostered the idea of refinishing old pivots and bearings so customers would not have to wait for new parts to be manufactured. He purchased a large quantity of WWII ammunition boxes and sent them to people he met at national scale conferences, offering to refinish any scale parts sent back in the ammunition boxes for fifty cents apiece. They were guaranteed a two- to three-day turnaround. Soon, word of this new approach to solving the parts shortage problem spread throughout the country.

1960s Thomas & Johnson published their first Pivot & Bearing Catalog displaying eighteen sizes of pivots and bearings and advertising a 35 percent savings compared to the same parts offered by the original manufacturer.

Donald B. opened his first National Conference hospitality suite. He welcomed everyone to the suite and treated them to Wisconsin cheese and sausage. Donald B.'s hospitality suite became a tradition at the National Conference and continues to be a welcoming destination today.

1970s In 1971 Thomas & Johnson Scale Service became Rice Lake Bearing, Inc.

In the mid 1970s, Donald B. saw that the United States was considering conversion to all metric measurements and realized his scale distributors would need new metric counterpoise weights. Always staying ahead of the curve, he began including test weights in the company repertoire. With an advanced metrology lab and expertise in the field, the company became a major supplier of precision test weights and recalibration.

1980s In 1981, Donald B. and his son, Mark Johnson, Sr., became the sole owners of Rice Lake Bearing.

During the 1980's, the Johnsons built on their company's position as a parts supplier to the weighing industry by including electronic parts and components in their catalog. They felt the same commitment made to the mechanical scale business should be made to the electronic scale industry. "Service, selection and speed" became a slogan the entire industry welcomed and depended on critical parts and components. In 1986, Rice Lake Bearing became Rice Lake Weighing Systems and strong application and engineering support set the bar for the entire industry.

1990s Rice Lake Weighing Systems became a world leader in weight related technology serving a wide spectrum of industries; Bulk Construction Materials, Chemical, Food & Beverage Processing, Timber, Pulp & Paper, Manufacturing, Packaging & Material Handling, Pharmaceuticals, Retail, Supply Chain Management, Transport & Logistics, Utilities & Waste. Rice Lake products and technology covered applications from basic weighing and data collection to on-line scale diagnostics and real-time monitoring, from recipe formulation to traceability systems, from truck management to inventory management, and beyond.

In 1996, Donald B. was awarded the prestigious Woody Woodland Memorial Award for his contribution to the scale industry.

2000 Rice Lake now offers over 35,000 weighing, control, data collection and communication products with over 1,000,000 items in stock and available for same- or next-day delivery.

Additional products manufactured and/or distributed by Rice Lake include the highest quality bench, crane, counting, and floor scales, remote displays, balances, printers, junction boxes and hardware.

Today Rice Lake Weighing Systems continues to lead the way in the development of new weighing and process control technologies. Rice Lake's corporate headquarters, metrology laboratory and main manufacturing plant remain in Rice Lake, Wisconsin, employing more than 400 employees. Additional manufacturing facilities are located in Jasper, Alabama, and Newtown, Connecticut.
