Help IDing: square/u-shaped metal pieces with specific oz weights

I'm trying to identify an antique.  There is an assortment of small metal squares in a long rectangular wooden box with a sliding lid.  The squares are u-shape/have "ears".  Each square weighs a specific amount of ounces that is stamped into the square.  There are also screws or bolts in the box.   Any ideas?  I'll add pics tomorrow if I get a chance.
