- Multiple Weight Options: Available in a full range of weights to suit different tank depths and liquid types:
- 1.0kg: Ideal for small tanks and shallow measurements
- 1.5kg: Versatile for general-purpose sounding
- 2.0kg: Standard choice for most commercial vessels
- 2.5kg: Suitable for deeper tanks
- 3.0kg: For heavy-duty offshore applications
- 4.0kg & 5.0kg: Designed for maximum stability in rough sea conditions
- High Precision Readings: Paired with a marine sounding tape, the sound lead delivers clear, reliable depth measurements, supporting accurate volume calculation and compliance with maritime reporting requirements.
- Maintenance-Free Operation: No electrical components or complex calibration needed—simple to use, clean, and store, making it a dependable tool for daily marine operations.
Applications
The marine brass sound lead is the industry standard for liquid level measurement across all types of vessels and offshore structures:
- Commercial ships: Bulk carriers, container ships, oil tankers, and general cargo vessels
- Workboats: Tugboats, supply vessels, and fishing boats
- Offshore platforms: Drilling rigs and production platforms
- Naval and government vessels
