Agri Health Hanging Spring Weighing Scales for Feed
Description
Agri Health Weighing Scales - Accurate Feed Weighing for the Yard
The Agri Health Weighing Scales are mechanical hanging scales with a metal hook, used for fast weight determination of hard feed, haynets, buckets and sacks. They are best for yard owners, grooms, liveries and smallholders who want economic control of feed by weighing rations rather than guessing scoop sizes.
A spring mechanism in quality workmanship sits inside a stable housing with a sturdy Plexiglass front, so the dial stays clear and protected in a working feed room. Browse more stable and yard equipment to complete your feed room setup.

How to Use
- Hang the scales from a secure beam, bracket or hook that can safely take the load.
- Check the dial reads zero with nothing attached before you begin.
- Attach the bucket, haynet or sack to the metal hook and let it hang freely.
- Allow the dial to settle, then read the weight through the Plexiglass front at eye level.
- Deduct the weight of the empty bucket or net to find the true weight of the feed or forage.
- Record the figure so rations stay consistent between feeds and between staff.
FAQ
What can I weigh with these scales?
They suit hard feed, chaff, balancers, haynets, buckets, sacks and other items that can be hung from the metal hook.
How do the scales work?
They use a mechanical spring mechanism, so no batteries or power supply are needed. The load pulls against the spring and the reading shows on the dial behind the Plexiglass front.
Why weigh feed rather than use scoops?
Scoop volumes vary between feed types, so the same scoop can hold very different weights. Weighing gives economic control of feed and keeps rations consistent.
Can I use them to weigh haynets?
Yes. Hang the filled haynet from the hook, let it settle, then deduct the weight of the empty net to work out forage intake.
How should I look after them?
Wipe the housing and Plexiglass front with a dry or lightly damp cloth, avoid harsh solvents on the clear face and store the scales somewhere dry.
Do they need calibrating?
Check the dial sits at zero when nothing is attached before each weighing session, and inspect the hook and suspension point for wear.
