LG Series Mechanical Force Gauges

LG Series Mechanical Force Gauges

The LG Series is an excellent, economical solution for tensile or compression testing. These mechanical force gauges fits naturally in the hand for a comfortable and firm grip, even at maximum loads.

The Chatillon LG Series is a low cost force measurement solution, ideal for a wide range of force testing applications.

These mechanical force gauges features a 2.25-inch dial and an accuracy of +0.5% of full scale, along with a peak hold button for capture of the peak readings and easy return to zero. The concentric dial measures clockwise only, and rotates 360 degrees for taring. A mechanical overload feature protects the force gauge from damage.

The mechanical force gauge fits naturally in the hand for a comfortable and firm grip, even at maximum loads. It can also be mounted to a test stand for even greater control and consistent results in repetitive testing applications.

Apply a pulling force to disconnect cables and hoses, and record maximum necessary tension. Check switch operation for “go”/”no go” or mount on a test stand to check the necessary compression force to engage a breaker.

LG Series Key Features:
- Three graduation styles (lbf, kgf and Newtons)
- Intrinsically safe
