Torsion
New Model HT-1 was developed to fill t h e demand for a balance which combines large capacity with unusually high sensitivity. T h e beam is graduated to 1 gram and n o weights are needed for \veighings of 1 kilo or less. Model LA-3 has several new features. The Torsion bands are made of a new, extremely corrosion resistant, stronger alloy (Elgiloy), which results in longer, trouble-free life for t h e balance. A

single beam with vernier permits accu rate weighings from 0.01 gram t o 1 0 grams without t h e use of loose weights. T h e stainless steel calibrated beam as sembly is positioned directly over t h e Torsion mechanism to minimize t h e effects of vibration. Sensitivity is easily adjusted with t h e high poise weight, and weighing operations a r e faster with t h e new oil dashpot. If y o u have a n u n u s u a l
