Ideal for tension and compression force testing in applications with a capacity up to 20 lbF (100 N), this force gauge offers an industry-leading sampling rate of 7000 Hz for accurate results. In addition, it has a large, backlit graphics LCD with legible characters and simple menu navigation for quick access to its many features.
Ruggedly built for many years of service in laboratory and industrial environments, this force gauge features an ergonomic, reversible aluminum design to allow for handheld use or test stand mounting for more sophisticated testing requirements. Additionally, it is overload protected to 200% of capacity, and an analog load bar is displayed for graphical representation of an applied force.
