Check how much force a part can take before it bends, stretches, or breaks.

Housing is brass.

These gauges come with a calibration certificate traceable to NIST that states they've passed a test for accuracy.

Measure the tension of wire or cable.

Measure the tension of wire and filament without pausing your operation.

Take tension and compression measurements at 0.1% accuracy—the highest accuracy of all our force gauges.

Read tension and compression measurements with a glance—these gauges have three color-coded indicator lights to show you if a part is at your desired force. Red means the force is too high, orange means too low, and green is just right.

Measure tension force as well as weight. Also known as dynamometers.

Designed to test the pull and push force of springs, insert these testers into your quality control line right out of the box.

Calibrate these sensors to your desired capacity to measure tension, compression, or both. Also known as load cells, they measure and track the forces of your equipment by converting them into electrical signals.
