Questions about Rapala Tube Scale 25lb

anyone using this to set drag? tried on my saragossa 10k (max33lb). Almost maxed out i got only 12lbs. Scale is accurate, tested with weights.

Answer: I use it to set drag. I tested it with a certified 25lb weight. It was off less than 1lb

Why it be sayin 25 lbs when da scale be sayin 15 lbs? How does I know how much weight it has?

Answer: It says 25 pounds on the left side and on the right side reads 11 kg

The item title says 25lb, but the image displays a 15lb scale. Is this a 25lb or 15lb scale?

Answer: It’s a 25 lb scale

Answer: Mine is 25 lb.

does it have an adjustment to get it back to zero?

Answer: In use, the two black tabs move together. When weight is taken off the hook, the top tab returns 'home' (to zero). After noting the weight marked, move the bottom tab back 'home'.

Answer: It has no spring adjustment.....you can move the indicator if you start with a load and get the delta that way

Answer: No it does not have a zero adjustment.

how long is the tube part of the scale please?

Answer: tube is just short of 8" (i.e. 7-7/8), hook is 2

Answer: just about 8"

Answer: About 10 inches

Answer: At least 12", I believe.

Can this scale be calibrated?

Answer: I suppose you could correlate dead weight to readings

Does it have a marker or some way to see what the max was? I want to use as a drag scale for fishing reels.

Answer: Yes. There's a sliding plastic tab that marks yhe maximum extension, indicating the max weight.

Answer: Yes it does

is the spring in the tube aluminum as well? or just the tube?

Answer: No it's not aluminum.

Answer: Spring is not aluminum, it's a steel coil spring.

Answer: No, I believe it is stainless steel.

Product reviews of Rapala Tube Scale 25lb

penname : For tension strength.

Needed a scale that I could know after weight applied and this does that. Using to test tension strength.

Anthony Carro : Five Stars

Good value, accurate and easy to use.

Amazon Customer : Five Stars

Great as expected thanks

Katri : Easy to read, lightweight

I ordered these to use on a Florida State University sponsors dig in Italy for weighing tile and brick. The weight increments in both kilos and pounds was perfect for our use. The scales were lightweight and easy to use and read, and the students in the dig felt them to be superior to our old scales. I will keep them in mind if we need more for next year’s season.

KJ : Five Stars

Perfect tool to set your drag correctly...

H : 目盛り部分は紙のシール

ハカリ本体はしっかりしています
しかし重要な目盛り部分には防水性のない薄い紙のシールが貼られています
ラパラ＝釣り＝水　ですからこれはどうなのかなと・・
本体壊れる前に使えなくなりそう

Michael I. Simon : Killer little scale

I’ve had this tool now for almost one year. Got it calibrated and use it on aircraft/rotorcraft every now and then for different inspections. The price on this tool could be a lot more for what it is I think, but glad it’s where it is at its price point.

Desertlover : Needed for a One Time Job

I needed a pull scale for setting up the steering box in my wife’s 1956 Corvette. This is a once and done job, so I wasn’t worried about longevity, repeatability or most of the other characteristics of a much more expensive scale. I checked with one pound weights and it was quite accurate, certainly within the tolerances I needed.
