Description

Model LCF300 Universal Load Cell is a low profile tension and compression load cell designed for applications where vertical space is limited or extraneous loads are encountered. Typical applications include Endurance and Fatigue Testing, where long performance cycles are required. The LCF300 Universal Load Cell has female/female threads and with its intricate one-piece-construction, it is able to withstand high extraneous loads. It is available in 2024 Aluminum for lower capacities (10 to 50 lbs) and 17-4 Stainless Steel for higher capacity range (100 to 500 lbs).

 

This unit is designed and manufactured in USA and it utilizes our highest quality metal foil strain gauge. The Universal Load Cell offers high accuracy with a Nonlinearity of ±0.25% and has a operating temperature range of -60°F to 200°F. If the standard model does not meet your requirements, we will gladly work with you to modify or customize a product.
