Overview

Defender 2500 Drum Scale is a durable portable floor scale designed for industry applications. Defender 2500 features a powder coated carbon steel treaded platform, built-in front/back access ramps, four load cells, and the new i-DT25P indicator for clear display of weighing results. Includes folding stainless steel cleats to store the indicator cord. For quick transport, the base can be rotated on its side using the stainless steel handles and moved around the shop floor using the two integrated wheels.

Features

  • Our Drum Scales come in five models with three platform sizes, and capacities from 300 to 1000 kg, allowing greater flexibility to best suit your weighing needs.
  • Platform constructed of powder coated carbon steel which enables the scale to stand up to heavy industrial use. Items can be weighed on treaded platform or across side rails for larger items.
  • Low-profile design with front/back access ramps allow pallet jacks, carts and drums to be easily rolled onto the platform. Integrated high-density polyurethane wheels enable convenient portability.
