Tension Gauges

Tension gauges for the determination of pressure and tractive powers with PC interface and software. Due to their variety of measuring ranges, the tension gauges in our assortment cover a wide spectrum of tensile and compressive force measurement. With the high-class control and material tests, the tension gauges produce reliable and exact work. The load range of the tension gauges goes up to 200 KN and higher. (Please contact us for tension gauges with a larger measuring range than 200 KN). Almost all tension gauges provide an interface to transfer the results to a computer or laptop. The measuring instruments with internal tension gauges have tapped holes at their back and can be mounted by means of adaptor plates or just like that to a test stand. All the other tension gauges are designed to screw them directly to the test stand. Test stands facilitate the work with the tension gauges and make it more precise. Therefore, they are very useful for many measurement tasks. The tension gauges' digital displays provide high resolution and a clear readability of the applied forces. Of course, the tension gauges can be delivered with calibration certificates. If you cannot find the tension gauges you are looking for, feel free to contact us. Our technicians and engineers are available to assess your needs and recommend the best suited tension gauge and any of our other products. Simply call our offices on: UK customers +44(0) 23 809 870 30 / US customers (561) 320-9162. Our engineers and technicians will be happy to help you with our measuring instruments and of course, with the other products in the field of regulation and control, and scales and balances.
