The GSM Balance (quadrant scale) is a simple, fast device that directly indicates the weight per unit area in grams per square metre (GSM) on a graduated scale when a sample of selected size is suspended from a clamp fixed to the pointer arm. It measures the GSM of fabric, paper, flooring, PVC film and other flexible sheet materials, and is supplied with two templates. It consists of a quadrant scale calibrated in GSM, fixed vertically on a rigid base with levelling provision. A pointer beam is pivoted on two jewel bearings at the centre of the scale to minimise friction. A sample of defined area is cut from the fabric using either template (or a circular cutter) and suspended from one end of the pointer beam, so the weight per unit area is read directly from the quadrant scale.
