Brecknell WS60 Bench Scales 60kg Stainless Steel

The Brecknell WS60 is a stainless steel bench scale designed for portion control and ingredient weighing in commercial food preparation areas. It handles loads up to 60kg and displays readings in both metric and imperial units. The display screen is separate from the platform, which means it can be positioned for clear visibility even when the platform is fully loaded — a small but practical detail in a busy prep environment.

In day-to-day kitchen use, this type of scale earns its place at butchery stations, bakery prep benches, and bulk ingredient areas where consistent weighing reduces waste and helps keep food costs predictable. The stainless steel platform holds up well in wet prep conditions and wipes down quickly between tasks, which matters when throughput is high and hygiene standards are non-negotiable.

• Metric and imperial display accommodates both recipe formats and supplier delivery notes
• Mains or battery operation allows flexible positioning away from sockets
• Auto-off function preserves battery life during quieter periods
• Rubber feet keep the unit stable on smooth stainless or tiled surfaces
• Separate display screen allows clear reading when the platform is under load

At 60kg capacity, this scale covers the majority of standard portioning and prep weighing tasks comfortably. It is not intended for goods-in weighing of very heavy loads — kitchens that regularly need to weigh beyond this range would be better served by a heavier-duty floor or platform scale. The compact footprint keeps bench space impact to a minimum, which is useful where worktop space is at a premium.

This scale suits small to medium kitchens, contract catering prep areas, and any operation needing a reliable, straightforward weighing solution at the prep bench. If you are working in a particularly wet or washdown environment and need a specific IP rating, or if you are unsure whether 60kg covers your typical loads, we are happy to point you in the right direction.
