|---|---|
| Separating Force | 10 gf to 20 gf (0.022 lbf to 0.044 lbf) |
| Gage Length | 3.0 mm to 12 mm (0.12 in. to 0.47 in.) |
| Temperature Rating | -40°C to 100°C (-40°F to 212°F) |
Miniature general purpose clip on extensometers for axial tensile, compression, and cyclic testing. Gauge lengths from 3 mm to 12 mm (0.15 in. to 0.47 in.) and measuring ranges from 5% to 100% strain. Very small and rugged, yet ultra-light weight, these units are widely used for testing small and delicate samples, including biomedical samples, wire and thin sheet materials. Also used for low cycle fatigue testing where short samples are used. Note: Optional connectors available to match your test machine.
FEATURES & BENEFITS
- Can remain on through specimen failure.
- Full bridge - 350 ohm strain design for compatibility with nearly every test system.
- Can measure in both tension and compression; can be used for cyclic testing.
- Mechanical overtravel stops in both directions.
- Meets ASTM Class B-1 and ISO 9513, class 0,5 requirements for accuracy.
- High and low temperature options extend operation from as low as -265°C (-450°F) and as high as 175°C (350°F).
