Hydrometer, Specific Gravity, 1.000 to 1.220 Range, 0.002 Subdivisions, 305 mm L [REPRESENTATIVE IMAGE]

Features

• Hydrometers are used to measure the specific gravity or relative density of liquids
• They are commonly used in beer and wine making, for measuring petroleum liquids, for the measurement of saltwater, and for measuring the density of sugar solutions
• Since the specific gravity of water equals 1.000, liquids lighter than water have a specific gravity below 1.000, and liquids heavier than water have a specific gravity greater than 1.000
• Plain form hydrometers do not have a built-in thermometer; use a separate thermometer to measure the temperature
• Subdivisions: 0.002
