    Tension Force Gauges for Wire and Filament

    Image of Product. Front orientation. Force Gauges. Tension Force Gauges for Wire and Filament.
    Measure the tension of wire and filament without pausing your operation. These gauges are often used to set tension and take continuous readings in 3D printing, spooling, wire cutting, and drawing machines. They can also be used with thin wire rope, carbon fiber, and fiber-optic strands. Slide your material between the three rollers to take measurements, even in tight spaces. All include a calibration certificate traceable to NIST that states these gauges meet standards for accuracy. They include a case for storage and protection.

    Check the accuracy of torque wrenches and screwdrivers—place your tool onto the gauge with the included square drive connector and turn. The main pointer shows torque as it's measured; Gauges with memory pointers show the maximum torque reached. Use these gauges with hand tools only.
    Note: For the most accurate performance, the maximum torque you apply should fall near the middle of the gauge's torque range.

    Finger-tighten the three-jaw chuck onto a torque wrench or screwdriver, then twist either the gauge or tool to check the tool’s accuracy. A pointer on the dial shows torque as it’s measured—no batteries required. Bring these pocket-sized gauges anywhere your tools are.
    All gauges come with a calibration certificate with test data traceable to either NIST or JIS, so they meet standards for accuracy. For the most accurate performance, the maximum torque you're applying should fall near the middle of the gauge's torque range. Use with hand tools only.
